it's worth noting that the ultranationalist side has the most popular support. the "actual" france has the least popular support and the communist side is somewhere in the middle.
Communists have captured the weapons factory at Nantes.
Ultranationalists have started using black-market Swiss and German automatic rifles in addition to their MAS-49s.
French Fourth Republic continues to be on the defensive as both sides chip away at their territory.
Anyways the death toll has climbed up to somewhere around 30,000 dead, missing, or wounded. The Communist's territory stretches from the west coast to a line roughly connecting Toulouse, Limoges, Poitiers, and Nantes. Ultranationalist territory makes a square with it's four points being Dijon, Tours, Montpellier, and Marseille. Fourth French Republic controls the Paris area and the northern coast of France.
