Under Plan XVII, the French peacetime army was to form five field armies of c. 2,000,000 men, with groups of Reserve divisions attached to each army and a group of reserve divisions on the flanks. The armies were to concentrate opposite the German frontier around Épinal, Nancy and Verdun–Mezières, with an army in reserve around Ste. Ménéhould and Commercy. Since 1871, railway building had given the French General staff sixteen lines to the German frontier against thirteen available to the German army and the French could wait until German intentions were clear. The French deployment was intended to be ready for a German offensive in Lorraine or through Belgium. It was anticipated that the Germans would use reserve troops but also expected that a large German army would be mobilised on the border with Russia, leaving the western army with sufficient troops only to advance through Belgium, south of the Meuse and the Sambre rivers. French intelligence had obtained a 1905 map exercise of the German general staff, in which German troops had gone no further north than Namur and assumed that plans to besiege Belgian forts were a defensive measure against the Belgian army.

⇒平時のフランス軍は、計画XVIIの下で約2,000,000人の兵士から成る5個の野戦方面軍を構成することになっており、各方面軍には、それに配属される予備師団群とその側面につく予備師団群がついていた。方面軍はエピナル、ナンシーおよびヴェルダン–ムジエール周辺のドイツ軍前線に対峙して集結し、メネウルドとコマーシ周辺に予備軍として１個方面軍が待機することになっていた。1871年以降、鉄道敷設については、ドイツ軍が利用できる13路線に対して、フランスの総司令部には16路線を与えられていたが、フランス軍としては、ドイツ軍の意図が明らかになるまで待つことも可能であった。

⇒フランス軍の兵員配置は、ロレーヌにおいて、またはベルギー経由でやって来る、ドイツの攻撃を迎え撃つための準備をしておくことを意図した。ドイツ軍は予備軍を利用すると予想されたが、またベルギーおよびミューズ川・サンブル川の南を通って進軍するのに足る軍隊だけを西部方面軍として残して、大規模なドイツ方面軍をロシアに接する境界線に動員することも予期された。フランス諜報部は、ドイツ総司令部の1905年の机上演習地図を入手したが、それによると、ドイツ軍隊はナミュールより北には行かず、ベルギーの城砦を包囲する計画が、ベルギー軍に対する防御措置であると想定された。
