Anschsluss of Austria

[unmerged(37490)]

Does this result in Germany absorbing the research teams and commanders of Austria? Does Germany need to post Garrison troops in this new territory?

Does this hold true for Czechoslovakia?

One day closer...

Good questions all.

Now that partisans are a real part of the game, I find it a shame that we will probably not see partisan activity in certain areas that were acquired shortly before the time frame of the game and considered part of the home country rather than an annexation.

I am especially thinking about Manchukou. There was definitely an organized resistence to the puppet government setup by the Japanese there.

I'd like to see the Ukraine and internal security there be a concern for the Soviets as well. I'm sure there are a dozen other such areas around the world but those are the two biggies that come to mind first.

AFAIK no research teams are absorbed .... yet.

I'm not sure about new leaders from this event, but in other events it defintely happens.

As Austria becomes part of GER national provinces, you won't see any dissent there, but you may need troops for border security.

As there are 2 events related to CZE, the answers are different for each event.

Yea, the not absorbing research teams things might have to be tweaked a bit. It's highly unlikely that a shipyard would just sit there doing nothing for the rest of the war.

Edit: Well I suppose you would have to account for the fact that some workers and especially management would probably be out of jobs... maybe jail or executed, and things like that. Definitely less efficiency than before. A leading scientist would probably not cooperate.

So on second thought, it seems fine for the most part.

Yeah, place like shipyards and complexes should, but individual teams of people may not. Also, can Austrains or Ploish teams of people flee to GB or US to escape persecution, and thus, aiding the allies onward?

Seems to me like prime material for some events.

 

[thorpemark]

Well, absorbing more land does allow you to resarch better, doesn't it? More ICs. So, your current research teams could be thought of as being improved.. no?

(I wouldn't know because I don't have the game)

 

[Alexander Seil]

That's true, it's just that you don't get the research teams. It's not that big of an issue, really, especially considering that there may be multiple instances of the same research team across several nations (international corps.) - it would be unwise to incorporate something like that into the engine, lest someone ends up with multiple instances of the same corporation

I had the Anschluss event yesterday in my game as Germany. I inherited all Austrian units (mostly 1918 infantry, with the odd obsolete cavalry and Alpenjäger mountaineers) as well as all Austrian leaders, AFAIK. No research teams (no shipyards either, this is Austria for crying out loud! )

Austria has a shipyard now?

As for tech teams in general, why would the help you gain better weapons to help you kill their allies after you annex them?

 

[Zanza]

Well, if you look at the tech teams that Germany has and compare them with those that Austria has, you'll notice that Germany has a better tech team for everything. So, if you would add all the Austrian tech teams to Germany, you would just make the list longer without gaining anything.

Besides, the German tech teams are better than the Austrian anyway
