I noticed on a World War II scenario, the Vichy French surrendering, and at some point becoming allies. Does anyone know how this works in relation to the event editor?

do you recall which scenario perhaps?

Klink, Oberst

I sure can't remember exactly which scenario it was, my apologies, as I would have to go back and play several of the European theater scenarios to find out. I guess my question would be is it possible to have a designated formation(s) change sides at some point during the battle.

I have this idea of a scenario of the European theater, and once the Germans surrender, the Soviet Union launches an attack on the United States. I don't know if this is possible within one scenario.If possible, it would make an interesting game, as I would probably set a percentage value that this would occur in the event editor.

You can't switch sides, but you can build the same force for both sides. For example, make a Soviet Allied force, then withdraw it when Germany surrenders. Make a Soviet Axis force, and have it arrive when Germany surrenders. Can be a little sloppy.

In 1941-45 East Front scenarios the Romanians switch sides. Several scenarios have this modelled quite well
