Francs-tireurs

Description
Francs-tireurs are only available to the Free French Forces and must be unlocked with Command Points before being called to the battlefield.

Francs-tireurs are groups of French resistance fighters armed with a mixture of British and captured German equipment. They can be called into the battlefield from any unoccupied civilian structure on the map, including those in the fog of war. If the selected building is occupied, the squad will spawn at the HQ sector. The squad also does not show up on the enemy mini-map even when they are visible to enemy players.

Francs-tireurs cannot capture territory. Instead, if the squad is present in an enemy-controlled sector, they will reduce the income the Axis side derives from that sector by 33 percent.

A maximum of three Francs-tireurs squads may be fielded at a time by each Allied player.

Petrol Bomb
Throws a glass bottle full of combustible fluid at the target area. The impact does not do much damage, but infantry that remain in the area will continue to take damage from the flames. Petrol Bombs are also partially effective against vehicles because there is a possibility they will ignite an internal fire.

Booby Trap
Francs-tireurs can place explosive traps in civilian buildings or on abandoned vehicles and field guns that go off when an enemy infantry unit tries to enter the building or crew the vehicle. Unlike mines, traps can be detected by any infantry unit by remaining stationary near the suspected trap for 5 to 8 seconds.
