French Generals Overhaul

Description
Are you tired of seeing the same generic portraits for half of the french generals ? Are you tired of seeing that Paradox still hasn't done anything yet ? Well boy do i have news for you !

WHAT IS THIS MOD ABOUT SACREBLEU ????

This mod gives France a grand total of 40 Generals and 14 Admirals which will all be listed down below. Some of them won't be immidiately available when starting the game in 1936, as you will be able to unlock them when completing the "Battle of Maneuver" and "Army Reform" Focuses.

I have tried my best to give them traits that fit their historical counter-part. I have buffed some and nerfed others based on their performances during their career aswell as the Battle of France campaign and afterwards. I'm sorry if some portraits look worse than others, as most of the time, the least known generals and admirals have very few good quality pictures of themselves on the internet. There's also the fact that i'm not the best at making portraits :p
