1) An easier way to manage upgrades and unit leaders. Maybe an "Armies" tab at the top? Various buttons/options could include "limit upgrade types", "remove all leaders", "replace underranked leaders" etc.
2) A pop-up window when you gain or lose a tech slot. Also, when you have an empty tech slot there should be a constant visible warning--perhaps change the cursor color to red?
3) Some events are really, really frustrating. For example, I played as Japan in patch 1.02 starting in 41. I crushed the UK, invaded Great Britain, and yet some event made them independent again. I think this was an event with Germany. But that is ridiculous. It was Japan's war, Japan won it, it doesn't make sense that Germany would have any say in the matter. Secondly it was very frustrating to plan and carry out an invasion for nothing. What's even worse is that around 1960 I did the same thing with the US, and had conquered every victory point on the continental US before Germany decided to start a cold war with them, which gave the Yankees everything back! That really sucked!! It was my very favorite game of Darkest Hour before that point. My only suggestion is "don't let me dedicate years to a war only to have everything I accomplished rolled back because of my AI ally's decision."
4) I can't figure out how to make warnings that I choose to not show up anywhere, to show up again. Specifically, the "our policy can be changed" warning. It isn't showing up anywhere and even when I click "remind me when policy can be changed" it seems to not show up. This kind of thing should be easier to manage.
5) If a nation only has 1 or 2 provinces sometimes it's easy to forget to annex them. There could be a list of countries you can annex in the diplomacy screen (first click on "annex nation" and pick it from the list, just like "liberate nation").
6) If there's an event like "minster retires", there's no way to see the stats of that minister or if you are using that minister.
