I was playing a game as the Nationalist Spanish when I had a "I wonder if..." moment. I renamed all the Condor Legion and Italian Volunteer divisions before the end of the Civil War, and the units stayed under Spanish control. Hopefully any new patch or enhancement should fix that.

it's true, but why should they make this impossible?
If you want to keep those units, you have to go out of your way to do so...

If you play as gamey as possible you can have a huge army by renaming the airforce & armor and encircling RepSpanish troops in non-vp provinces.

The Chinese Horde strategy in Spain? How come I had to get myself all the way to the enhancements sub-forum to learn this can be done?

I found out about a year ago during a NatSpain game, I remembered reading once about it on the forum so decided to try it.

Next time I find something worthwhile I'll pm you, ok? :D

Except for the Navy (as you only have two lvl 1 BB's instead of four), you'll have a bigger and better army/airforce than Italy and your IC won't be much lower.

One more advantage for Spain; if you attack France when Vichy fires the provinces you occupy will stay that way; they won't revert back to Vichy or Germany.
