I googled it and you are absolutely right. I mixed up the Austin K5 with the Bedford QL (though I didn't know the actual variant designations). They both have that flat face with the odd protruding engine.

@podcat Has a decision been made regarding the Blitz-button being DLC or patch, following popular response?
I want to know, because I want to preorder this sooo badly, but I can't in good conscience do so until I know how this went

It's now known as 'Spearhead' and has been advertised as a paid feature on the promotional material for TfV, so it looks like you're gonna have to pay for it.@podcat Has a decision been made regarding the Blitz-button being DLC or patch, following popular response?

Yes and no.. not for release, but some time in the future you should be able to go:
Code:
effect somewhere:
set_cosmetic_tag = DANSKE_KOMMUNISTER
countries.txt:
DANSKE_KOMMUNISTER = {
color = rgb { 255 0 0 }
color_ui = rgb { 255 10 10 }

I'd like to see Egypt in the game, but integrated puppet wouldn't reflect its actual status. Its the lower form of autonomy before diplomatic annexion, and Egypt was almost in independent nation at the time.

Does that air superiority from land AA apply multiplicatively or additively? If additive, does it get applied after or before multiplicative bonuses? For example, if I have 40% air superiority reduction and the enemy has +50% air support bonus, is the effect of air support 45%, 35% or 15%?
Question about the new tags: are they intended to be the solution to "formable" nations/tag-switching? I.e. can cosmetic tags be tied to ownership of states? So If one of the Scandinavian countries "owns" all the land of NOR, SWE, DEN an event could fire that gives them the cosmetic tag of KAL?
Can events/focuses be locked behind ownership of a cosmetic tag (I'm guessing not, given they are only "cosmetic" tags)? For example, could there be focuses locked behind the "must have KAL tag" before they can be activated?

Even if you can't use a cosmetic tag as a trigger, you could achieve the same result by having a system flag as a trigger; that flag could be generated by the event that adds the cosmetic tag. So short answer: yes, I think so.
This is basically how leader events have to work right now, but @Havebeard has now added specific triggers for those as well.

Does this mean that the abominable "Vichy France" name won't appear if France is not a German puppet?

additive. so if enemy is applying a -40% attack penalty to you and your AA is at a level where it gives +20 the end result is: 20-40 = -20 (it also cant go positive

If there is no trigger for it I can add one to avoid flag dealing with flags where they are not needed.Even if you can't use a cosmetic tag as a trigger, you could achieve the same result by having a system flag as a trigger; that flag could be generated by the event that adds the cosmetic tag.

No, but it means modders will have the option to do so.
And we will probably also fix that at some point, but for TFV we have had other important things to do.

One Question: Do you get the full Manpower of a puppet if you annex it through the new system or do you still only get these few man.
Do you plan to release a beta version of Torch before the official release of 1.3 + TfV ? If not, why ?

Just to check if I get it right: you couldn't have that "other fascist France" and Vichy France at the same time, could you?
As far as game mechanics are concerned, there are only three possible France (four if you count Non-Aligned), and Other Fascist France would quite literally be Vichy France by an other name (and flag). Correct?
I'll let you guys see if you can identify all the vehicles
The wheeled/half-track truck in the middle sure does look like the inspiration for the Batman vehicle.
I would love to see these rather than humvees today. It just looks menacing, nasty and packed full of pain.
