I voted for the RN fighting for Malta whatever. Understand that Malta was a vital part of the UK’s efforts to interrupt supplies to N Africa and so defend the Suez canal and thus the UK’s whole middle east position. I am presuming this was understood at the time - but that’s an assumption others may challenge.

I get military command its just Im confused on the Vichy French troops

I’ve looked at the order of battle page to which you provided a link. What it seems to do is focus on the distribution of the individual units which composed the French (and later Vichy) forces in Syria and Lebanon, while overlooking the larger command structure. The page on the Army of the Levant (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Army_of_the_Levant) is a bit more helpful in that respect – look at the section titled “Army of the Levant during World War II”.

I looked at that a long time ago. What I need your guys opinion on is should I use the historical unts, make up new ones, or form them by massing together the troops in ech region.

What are you using as base troops I.e.
how many infantry per infantry unit
i.e. 5000 per infantry mean
Use historical numbers and then edit it after playtesting. The vichy list in battalions which means 4 or 5 of these would = a brigade
-
Well im using brigade/regiments for a single unit. Editing has been done though so France has a tank and other units. The Free French wernt the most organized army in the world :)
-
so for every 4-5 brigades create 1 vichy infantry unit
