Armor Upgrading in Germany

[JRCCrow]

Hey Guys,
This thing rocks. Core rules , I think I have stumbeled into a bug, or at least my febale mind cant figure it out. It seems like Armored units in germany upgrade really fast. I have been trying to track them as best I can and once a new technology comes in within two weeks tops, they are upgraded. Great fro me, but kind of unbalancing at the same time. Has anyone else ran into this? Thanks all....

I've seen this myself too, but we'll wait and see if it's still a problem with the new armor tree coming in 0.2.

It's seems to me the upgrading system treat land division differently as airplanes.
In my current game,I had 20 infantry divisions to upgrade, so the IC requires for that is 20, and then my only Int-F2 began to upgrade because of a tech I just get, now it shows I need almost 40 IC to upgrade. However, it still takes more than 100 days to finish that. That's almost twice the cost than build a new one. :wacko:

Aircraft upgrades should be very different in 0.2, which hopefully won't be too awful long now.

The answer is yes, though I haven't been able to test the last tweaks in the beta yet myself. But it's definately on Ghost's list.

Edit: For the record: the prolonged upgrade times are in part intentional, as upgrading takes time in real life. It's the overall cost which is the main issue, i.e. base IC * upgrade time. The end result should be significantly less than the production cost, though it differs from type to type (how much of the old stuff is reusable for upgrade, and how much has to be replaced).
