#1 The curse: "May the French Warships perform as well as the Renault Avantime" *

*The Renault Avantime is one of the most Jalop cars ever, but we also want to win as much money as Renault has lost on this joint operation with crazy engineering firm Matra.
Their career in the automotive industry came to an end after this wonderful creation.

#2 Sell them more French warships.
Altho, frankly (:)) this class of assault ship is a pretty tried and true design. I don't see much reason to twist undies here.

#3 Lemme know when the IJN starts buying them off the shelf for the Mobile Fleet. Methinks they're gonna need to ramp up real quick, real soon.
