OOC: Not so fast Kitty. As the admins have not replied to my proposal, it is considered valid unless they say otherwise (in the same way you used Orion's point to continue this). So you may capture New France, but not all French territory, and some French forces survive.

IC:

In the last few hours before defending French forces are overwhelmed, key leaders and technical/scientific personnel are evacuated together with thousands of civilians and troops. The AFOH sends 6 massive Outremer transports and a dozen smaller Pascals and Thunderers (escorted by 120 Paladin heavy aerospace fighters), and these warp out just as CCU troops blast through the gates of the last space port in the eastern coast. Over 500,000 are transported to New Caledonia (OOC: which is in the middle of AFOH-controlled territory so you couldn't have attacked it) to form the nucleus of a government-in-exile. In the meantime, communications have been re-established with France's surviving space colonies.
