Holy cow, does France put up a tough fight, I must have mowed down multiple Frnch but they just keep coming, do they have as many reinforcements as Germany?

France mobilised alot of men for fighting on 1 front. When you consider that from a firepower standpoint specifically artillery and machine guns they were at anywhere from 4 to 8 times a disadvantage (Germans had heavier artillery and more plentiful). In the initial stages of the war (say first 4 months) the total bill on the western front alone was over 454,000 allied casualties (dead and missing-or otherwise out of action-) to 200,000 german (dead and missing).
