Now that Richelieu and Ark Royal have been introduced since a while, i'm surprised that there is no references at all of the Battle of Dakar where those two exchanged fire (and the first real combat situation of Richelieu too) anywhere.

It isn't mentionned either in their own lines nor has it been spotted by any artists by now. The Ark x Bisko spread well of course but as for Richelieu... nothing. Too bad because there is so much stuff you could do with it.

Like for exemple Bismark trying insistently to recruit Richelieu in a anti-Ark/anti-British league or something, Richelieu refusing despite her grudge and then Ark and Warspite attacking Richelieu, accusing her of wanting to collude with Bismark.... It wrights itself see XD.

It goes for Commandant Teste too because Ark Royal participated in the attack of Mers el Kébir. And here too, no mention at all of that event in her lines nor has it been spotted by anyone.

I guess people are mostly clueless when it comes to the actions of the French navy during WW2 unfortunately.... sigh.
