I can only comment during the evening (European time), as I don't have a HoI2 Editor with me. Then I will. We are not in a hurry!

Augustín Malár
Skill level 4
Starting year 1939 – 1959 end date or 1945 because he died that year but what if the Axis survives then what would we need such end date for?
[/URL][/IMG]
Infantry focus, large unit tactics and centralized execution.

I have a picture of Ferdinand Čatloš the defence minister Slovakia during ww2. It’s slightly better than the one we have now maybe we replace the old one.

Regarding Augustín Malár he died beacause of an insurrection vs the Germans. Please see here http://www.generals.dk/general/Malár/Augustin/Czechoslovakia.html.
To me the historical death date is senseless because it could have happened to everybody and it's just a matter of probability and time. Everybody should die and the cause could be an accident, a hearth attack, etc. I would stick, instead, to the retiring time.
I would like to see some thoughts on this as well as on the proposals and on the pic
YUG - Serbian TTs
The political changes in Easter Europe - as discussed by Cegorah - while needs to be addressed, requires events and such, and it should not be our goal at the moment.
Nedic lead the collaborative government of Serbia. And should be included in the Serbia TT, where he could replace Belgrade Mil. Acad. as the doctrine team with Skill 4 and the above specialty.
Mihailović actually opposed the Partisans. He would had been a prominent military figure if Yug continued as a monarchy/democracy. He could not be a TT in communist Yug alongside Tito.
Again I suggest including him in Serbia with SKill 4 and Specialty Small unit’s tactics, decentralised exec, training and infantry focus
Having read their bio I think they should not included at the moment.

Slovakia
Jan Golian then could have Infantry focus, individual courage and centalized execution. Skill 4.
As a TT he should have training.
C-K-D is just wrong for Slovakia. It was a CZE company. Slov need revision, and overhaul. Let me have some time to think it up, and look for some reference.
I would actually swap Malár with Jan Golian. Malár lead the Fast Units for a while thus combined arms is fitting.

The picture is definitely better. The one in Hoi2 does not even comform Paradox standard...

Alright it's taken me awhile, but I've come up with a few tech teams.
Vichy France:
Name: Jean Romatet
Skill: 4
Traits: Decentralised Execution, Piloting, Aircraft Testing and Fighter Tactics
Years: 1936-1964
Romatet was a WWI Flying Ace with 7 victories, and was commander of the Vichy Airforce from beginning to end. He died in 1975. I think this is a better option then the plain old "Vichy Airforce/Armée de l'Air de Vichy" TT that I saw somewhere.
Nevertheless, a good picture for that if it is included would contain a picture that shows Both the Tricolor Cockade, but also the Armistace Stripes which were Red and Yellw, to distinguish the aircraft from Free French ones
Luxembourg:
He is the one sitting on the Left. This is the best picture I could find, but it's not very military, and is after the war. If anyone has a better one I'd be grateful.
Name: Emile Speller
Skill: 3
Traits: Training, Decentralised Execution, Infantry Focus and Small Unit Tactics
Years: 1936-? English information is very scarce on this guy, so I'll need a Luxembourger or someone to help me here. The site I got the image from said something in German about 1981, is it possible he could have been alive that long?
He was the commander of the Luxembourger Army at the start of the war, and from what I can infer, was probably commanding the army at the start of the game, in 1936. His plan of defensive against the German invasion was to pull back from the borders and wage smaller skirmishes (the army was only 600 men strong), and to hold off the Germans long enough for any people who wanted to flee to reach Allied Lines. I'm thinking this is a better, more interesting TT then the "Luxembourg Armed Forces" option.
Austria:
I'm here thinking about naval teams. Sure, Austria lost it's sea going navy at the end of WWI, but it still retained many officers and men who would be around during the AOD timeframe. Any help would be excellent.
Sure, Austria dosen't have a coast, but it did have a River Squadron that patrolled the Danube.
Name: Schiffswerft Korneuburg a.k.a. Korneuburg Werft AG
Skill: 2
Traits: Naval Engineering, Naval Artillery, Electronics and Technical Efficiency
Years: 1936-1964
I wasn't able to find a picture, we might have to substitute a Generic one unless anyone can privde any help. Another option is an image of a ship from that shipyard or w/e.
I think the traits and skills the be realistic, it built warships, hence I gave it Naval Artillery. I think a skill 2 is accurate, it hadn't made major warships in some time, but if Austria obtains a coast and a navy it would be sufficient to make smaller ships like destroyers without trouble. And remember, the Battleship Szent Istvan was built in Hungary during WWI, and floated down the Danube, also dockyards can be enlarged.
I like the first better, but this one could work also:
Name: Georg von Trapp
Skill: 4 or 5, depends on what others think.
Traits: Centralised Execution, Naval Training, Seamanship, Small Taskforce Tactics and Submarine Tactics
Years: 1936-1947
Now before you instantly start to laugh and talk about how lame this is hear me out. This guy was a brilliant Submarine Commander in WWI, and if Austria had won the war, or had continued to have a coast he would have ended up an admiral to be sure. When the Nazi's occupied Austria they asked him to become a commander on the Kreigsmarine. You think if Austria aquired a coast again, and started to build a navy again they wouldn't have done the same? And most likely he would have said yes. I don't see it unreasonable at all to include this guy as an Austrian TT. He died of lung cancer in 1947 hence the end date.
There are other possibilities aswell. A Naval Ministry TT could be set up, for after Trapp dies or from the beginning.
Greece:
Do we have any Air or Naval Doctrine teams for this nation? I'd be willing to do research if there is nothing.
Also, there are some TT's that were given incorrect images by Paradox, incorrect as in pictures of someone else, have these been fixed or not.
Also, several teams have incorrect activation and end dates. Take Vichy for example, in Vanilla after the Allies land and Vichy collaborates, they lose all their doctrine teams EXCEPT FraNcois Darlan. This guy was acturally murdered in 1942 around the time of all the said event, yet he is the only one to survive? So the others need to be reasearched on, and fixed, and for Darlan, I suppose an event for his assasination, which occurs only regarding the invasion of Algeria. And other things: Messe of Italy only a skill 4, some teams just have wacked skills, that guys TT should be a 5)
I also have ideas for Russa (Russia not USSR), Ukraine, Bulgaria, Mongolia, Slovakia etc...etc... I just pooped out tonight.
So give some answers boys. When is the deadline for TTs?
Also, sorry about the images, someone will have to crop them, and give them the correct the colors of them (for the hell of me I forget that term used to describe the yellowing that old B&W photos get EDIT: Sepia Tone). I have no skills on this myself.

Norsk Idro has been coded (please I need the pic) but I'm puzzled about the following team
Code:
2502;Forsvarets Forskningsinstitutt;T_NOR_FFI;5;1946;1970;chemistry;electronics;management;combined_arms_focus;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;xI would prefer to remove combined arms focus and assigning it to another tech team
Austria
Austria
I generaly prefer to leave the original TTs mostly intact. Maybe replace name, but do not swap specialties. They were I hope balanced for the given country.
Shrödinger is in game. End date should be lowered. Nuclear engineering might not be a specialty for him (he was a theoretical scientist). Leave him with math and nuclear physiscs. Skill can be 7, won't change too much.
Anselm Franz with Skill 6, Rocektry, Aeronutics is OK
Gödel skill 7, Math is OK
I won't change the Univ. Wien except if we come up with a mathematicians for the post 39 era. There are probably famous ones around (not necessary in cryptography).
Puch skill 5 mechanics, gen.equip, training is OK
Georg von Trapp skill 4, centralized, naval training, sub tactic, seamanship, small taskforce
Schiffswerft Korneuburg is OK as suggested
We should come up with an air doctrine and an land doctrine team for the post WWII era. Ministry of Defense is just lame. (If nothing else I go to Austria next week because of work, and ask some locals)

I was looking around for some better Air, Land and Naval doctrine teams for Austria, it's hard work.
They didn't really get an Army again until 1955, so unless existing people can be found to make it to those dates it will be hard to find people. I do agree though, the generic Ministries and Armies are lame.
I found some other Austrian Air Leaders, but was unable to find any good information on them.
I think asking the locals is probably a good idea.
For the most part leaving the stock teams alone is good, but some times Paradox was just stupid. Take the Messe, that guy was the Italian Guderian, and he only gets a skill 4, because he is an Italian. They get him so late in the game he can't make much of a difference anyways, maybe his dates should be changed...I'm on a rant.
But Regarding the Austrian Hirtenberger TT, I do think it should be split into two different Teams. Austria needs more teams, and this is a good way to make them, Paradox basically tried combining two things in one.

I'm pleasantly surprised von Trapp went down so well with you guys! I swear I suggested him one other time and people got all over me.
Are Jean Romatet and Emile Speller okay as well?
Are Jean Romatet and Emile Speller okay as well?
What about adding Nedic and Mihailović to Serbia and Yugoslavia and creating a new tech team for communist Yugoslavia? The news here is that the number of countries is not limited any longer.
In this case I would take out Bogoljub Ilic and Dusan Simovic that had nothing to do with Tito.

Alright it's taken me awhile, but I've come up with a few tech teams.
Vichy France:
Name: Jean Romatet
Skill: 4
Traits: Decentralised Execution, Piloting, Aircraft Testing and Fighter Tactics
Years: 1936-1964
Romatet was a WWI Flying Ace with 7 victories, and was commander of the Vichy Airforce from beginning to end. He died in 1975. I think this is a better option then the plain old "Vichy Airforce/Armée de l'Air de Vichy" TT that I saw somewhere.
We thought about that but the pic is not acceptable because is from WWI. If you mange to find a suitable picture we can reconsider this choice.
Luxembourg:
He is the one sitting on the Left. This is the best picture I could find, but it's not very military, and is after the war. If anyone has a better one I'd be grateful.
Name: Emile Speller

Kunadam said yes and that's fine with me
Please download the pack we have prepared (follow my signature) and check it out
Please follow this link http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?t=432989
I agree. Please check the pack.
Please first check the pack and afterwards make your proposals
The first deadline is passed (it was Saturday last week). We are preparing a patch.
I think we can postpone the communist tech teams for the communist Eastern Eurpean states to after release. That is 2 weeks. We still need to dig up teams for many other countries.
Yesterday I have checked CORE and TRP, they either left TTs as it, or deleted/merged some, there is very few if any new proposals.
No inspiration from there.

You are right but please have a look at the Yugoslavia tech team. It's quite disturbing...
I think that I will make a try on it in my spare time
Well, for Romatet, I'm not trying to be a bugger, but the pic is of good quality, and is the picture of von Trapp not from WWI also?
If I can dredge up more info on Speller will that changes things. I actually have a picture of him in a book somewhere, I just need to get the image to the internet.
I will take a look at this "pack" right now!
I'm excited to see work is already being done on a patch!
Thanks for the help, and sorry I'm not able to quote like you do!
