BC-Freedom High School

The story of BC-Freedom High School begins with Maginot High School and their insatiable lust for wine.

Due to problems acquiring any steady supply of wine grapes, it was considered to be more economical to build not one, but two schools for the sole purpose of supplying Maginot. And thus begins the story of BC High School and Freedom High School.

Freedom High School hailed from the city of Okayama, the capitol city of Okayama Prefecture. Their vineyards flourished and expanded, eventually dominating their school ship.

BC High School originally hailed from the landlocked city of Tsuyama, in Okayama Prefecture. Their ventures into growing wine grapes ended in failure, forcing them to look elsewhere. They found moderate successes by focusing on general education, home economics, commercial, and manufacturing classes.

However, it didn’t last.

Due to administration blunders and funding cuts, both schools deteriorated to a point to where it was no longer considered economical for both schools to be kept afloat. It was then decided by the Administration to take advantage of the situation by promoting inter-school relationships with a union of two different, but similar schools.

And thus, the story of BC-Freedom High School begins.

The union backfired in a colossal failure, with distrust and mutual hatred between the former two schools who where now forced to occupy a single ship. Their distrust for each other eventually led to the school ship being split in half, with the port side occupied by the former Freedom High School and the starboard side occupied by the former BC High School. This division also extended to living quarters and commercial buildings.

With nonexistent teamwork and a constant power struggle, this union only managed to waste even more funds and brought down the Administration’s reputation even further. However as time went by, the number of students that do not identify with either the original schools has increased, and they live their lives mostly free from the rivalry.


Due to their sudden union, BC-Freedom High School operates a mishmash of tanks that are very different from each other. Their main force in Senshado consists of early-war French tanks such as the Hotchkiss H-39 and SOMUA S-35 along with the heavier M4A2 and Model G Panther tanks.

They are also known to possess an FCM F1 multi-turreted superheavy tank, but it has not seen combat. It is suspected to be either non-operational or is thought to lack combat ability. BC-Freedom High School has also acquired a Valentine Mk.V, but it is currently non-operational.

With different origins and different tanks comes different tactics. The former BC High School preferred to break the enemy with maneuver warfare, drawing inspiration from Napoleonic Cavalry.

With BC tactics considered to be too risky, the former Freedom High School adopted a doctrine very similar to Maginot’s, where an extremely strong defense would stop the enemy from completing their objective. This was the main reason for the relatively slow FCM F1 and the Valentine infantry tank to be acquired.

Regardless of the quality of their vehicles, a lack of teamwork between the two sides cripples them in matches.

They have attempted to request additional support from Saunders, Kuromorimine, and St. Gloriana, but aren’t taken seriously due to the sheer number of other requests from other schools.

Overall, the students of BC-Freedom High School are very similar to Maginot High School’s students. They heavily emphasize the importance of education, especially lessons that will create a good wife and a loving mother for a healthy family. Thus, Senshado is heavily promoted at BC-Freedom.


The H-39 Tank

Requesting a new infantry tank, Hotchkiss received orders for three prototypes but was beaten by Renault’s tank which would later be known as the R35. For political reasons, the Hotchkiss tank would continue to be produced, first tested and then rejected by the Infantry, the Cavalry reluctantly accepted their use, as the Cavalry would not have been granted the budget to buy tanks if they hadn’t already been avalible.

The H-39 was an improvement over the earlier H-35 and the H-38. It was fitted with a more powerful engine and a longer 37mm L/35 SA38 gun, among others.
