Well I think the British must leave the US faction and join with the French in the new faction and to be removed from the Pacific. Why with the French simple reason they fought together and the French will cover the lack of semi automatic weapons in the British tech tree + early war thanks. To be honest together they can be very strong and very diverce faction. There can be added 2 new campaigns just for this faction Battle of Hong Kong against Japan and Battle of France against Germany and they will be also be in Normandy , Tunisia and Battle of the Bulge together with the Americans.
