Im sure it has been asked already, but i dont want to go though all the pages, is anybody else curious about the speed of the ships? Destroyers going 120MPH? light cruisers 112? Those are some fast boats!

I think he means the factions symbol (AFAIK) in the top right corner.
I believe there should be some tech level country must have to be able to accept lets say Sherman/ PZ IV level of tanks for instance.
I'm kinda disappointed that you aren't able to upgun a ship's main guns, as historically there were occasions where ships were upgunned or where there were plans to upgun. Examples would be the Japanese Mogami class, which originally was armed with 15 6" guns (5x 3-gun turrets) and were upgunned to use 10 8" guns (5x 2-gun turrets). There were plans to upgun the german Scharnhorst and Gneisenau from their 11" guns to 15" guns, with the 11" gun turrets to be used for 3 of the Kreuzer-P class Panzerschiffe as part of Germany's Plan Z. Gneisenau was quite nearly converted until she was damaged (the 15" gun turrets had already been built for it), after Gneisenau was damaged, it was decided to use the guns as coastal artillery. I understand that I wouldn't want such an upgrade to happen automatically, but I would like the option to put my ships into port and do such an upgrade (If playing as Germany, the option to upgun the 2 Scharnhorst class ships could be more cost effective than building 2 new battleships from scratch)

I had a quick naming idea for division, brigade, tech, etc for minors and I hope that this hasn't been proposed already in the 15 pages of comments.
My idea has to do with your relationship toward the majors. If for example you are Argentina and you have a strong relationship and are ideologically similar to Germany then perhaps your technologies after those of Germany. If on the other hand you had this relationship with USA you would name the techs after US techs.
This would give some flavor for some minors at the expense of realism, but at least it would be better than naming techs Small Arms 1943.
Yes would be awesome, you could even name tank/airplane models and so after the major your closest to where you don't have names of your own.I had a quick naming idea for division, brigade, tech, etc for minors and I hope that this hasn't been proposed already in the 15 pages of comments.
