Here we go, a game which sweats of baguette and honhonhon all over the place. It won't be a very large scale project but will have a solid finish line. I'm eager to show what i learned about JASS !
France Total War, qu'est-ce que c'est ?
From the shadows of my home country, it shall be a 22 player Risk where each of them controls a French region. Every of them will have unique units and mechanics. Income is generated through towns, large towns and metropolis of France. You can capture them to get extra, but remember only your original ones gives full income (else a quarter) ; so reconquest of your homeland is profitable. All main towns will be shown in the map, but staked ones would be fused to the main one so it won't be a mess.
Units will be 20% slower and smaller, attacking and dying slowly. Armies won't be very numerous, as the map would be a bit laggy.
Every clichés will be exploited : Island of France being royalist and bad drivers, Brittany pigs and Normandy cows fighting for the St-Michael mountain, Alsace fighting with German soldiers and full of sauerkraut gas warfare, Corsica being very independent and crude ; i think you grasped the concept.
All regions have the same common units :
¤ Baguette Militia
Basic & cheap infantry. Can be upgraded to Jeambon-Beurre Militia
¤ Floating Baguette
Basic ship for naval transportation. Doesn't attack.
¤ (for naval towns) War Floating Baguette
Basic Warship.

☼ Terrain and towns
Sometimes i'm not accurate enough. I'll gladly take any form of support for specific areas (especially non-french ones). Remember these rules for the towns :
► Too close towns will blob and fuse their population and be named after the bigger one
► If applicable we count the surrounding area of the surrounding urban area.
► <45k pop towns will be ignored, or blobbed up in case of the two previous rule
► From ~45k to ~150k pop is a Town
► From ~150k to ~300k is a Large Town
► Above ~300k is a Metropolis
► In case of a French town being also part of an other country, it will belong to the region and will blob up all of the population.
► Too small towns even blobbed up would be ignored
► Trees in area which are in real life trees
► Crop land in area which are in real life very cultivated
► Roads linking together close enough towns
► Paved ground for Metropolis and blobbing up nearby towns
☼ Clichés
Are you a local from a specific region or country ? I'm craving for this kind of stereotypes to create more themed units and events. It must be region-wide or known enough to be mentally linked to this : behavior, delicacy, event, history or even any kind of obvious rivalry.
☼ Testing
Send me any replays and feedback on any platform you want : comments, private messages, Discord FlameofChange#3103, Discord server and so on. I advertise any newly hosted games from many Warcraft 3 discords, so you may bump into me someway.
