They get French troops, not allies. (6 regiments exchanged for Irish regiments).

The best equipped regiments (and the French) will. Others will be 4:2.

The French will also not be available throughout the conflict as they went home soon after James fled the country.

If I had had my way then if you took the French you automatically got a Tc as an I/C.

I can cope with that from a points point of view if not historical.

Does anyone know a good site to find the regimental flags & uniforms of James II army ? I got the Osprey Battle of the Boyne book, but it isn't that helpful in this matter.
