But, strangely enough, I see nothing about this in
Europe 1939 game rules. What is the behaviour in this scenario?

I'll add it to the notes for the next patch.

Nothing, but we could have the colonies join the Allies if mainland attacked.
It is there already.
Edit : Oups, sorry. Did not see it was answered already.

So what I am hoping you mean is that each Vichy Colony has the be attacked AND conquered separately from each other. So, no more just taking Algeria and all of VF NA becoming German or Allied. This would help a LOT in stopping some of the weird stuff going that I mention above.

So, you would like to split Vichy NA in three parts? Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia, correct?

Yes that would be ideal. As it seems strange that Morocco would give up just because Algeria over 600 miles away was captured. Syria is already considered a separate colony so why should not the rest be treated the same way?

As an alternative, we may also consider that Vichy NA surrenders only if Alger, Oran and Rabat
all fall in Axis or in Allies hands.

As such, perhaps add one Vichy unit in Rabat in addition to the one in Alger.

That is an easy solution NCC

Thinking of it, about the Vichy fleet, why not split it in two? Some groups at Mers el-Kébir i.e. in the port of Oran and some others still in Toulon.
This way, when Vichy NA is attacked, the Vichy fleet may counter attack with few chances but still...
And, as suggested by sveint, if Vichy mainland is attacked, the remains of the Vichy fleet in Toulon will be scuttled.

I'd be good with this solution [:)]
