i know right, it would make the game a lot more historically acurate
i think what they mean is that you can upgrade your boats like lets say a level 1 submarine to a level 2 submarine, i don't know for sure tho.
It is technically impossible. Ship is a complex of pretty big list of different systems, which are put into hull to provide possible maximum of characteristics at the sensible cost.
I should have stuck to my guns and not preordered the season pass. I put too much trust in paradox. It was the first preorder I had made in a long while (can't even remember the last one) and it will be the last. I feel a bit let down by the DLC. There is still time though. Hopefully, they stick with the game. CK2 wasn't amazing to start, but I'm still playing it years later and I have 812 hours put into it.
I'd buy this game again, but I wouldn't get the season pass. Please stick with this game Paradox. Please come through with a true expansion. Thanks for the 109 hours I have so far.

Hey, add me on steam my name is Lev Slav. I can help you with the Bulgaria national focus, I was going to make one anyway but having your personal opinion would be great for this.
Maybe you simply replace the previous ship with a new one and only keep the manpower?
There are times I enjoy the game, but there are times... honestly, when I feel the genius of hoi3, has been given up for... well more simple game mechanics. When I say genius I am talking of one thing many don't usually mention. Namely the integrated way the command structure fit into the resources which fit into the war which fit into the headquarters which felt like a true war machine was being built. Not eye candy, not things half done, but something who AI could almost be -felt- evolving. I like HOI4 to a point. But there are some major things missing. We traded a good deep pulsing logistical system with a simple number of supported divisions. We traded the most in depth chain of command system ever built for a game for single generals in no way tied to eachother. Plans are good and interesting but still need some work.
I do feel, however, that expansions should have -way- more than National Focuses. National focuses should never be the focus of the game. Good and interesing game mechanics and systems should be, and should be integrated in such a way that they work -together- to draw the player in. And no matter how well intentioned simplifying the game is, genius will always be genius unless it is taken away.

My thoughts on this are somewhat mixed, first off, I'm really excited, but why only 4 nations, what of Austria, Bulgaria, Albania, Greece, and Turkey? I've paid $60 for only 8 focus trees, and this "expansion" will only add 4, with the total being up to $70 or more? And if it must be 4 specifically, or even 5, why not Scandinavia and Iceland, some of them already have national spirits, why not finish them with focus trees first before starting on other countries? Overall, I am excited, but I have my share of complaints. I encourage good prices for good products, which is something I tend to experience with most paradox titles, I guess I just feel slightly disappointed is all, keep up the good work.
Can I add you also? I've had experience with modding and can help you out.
i think bulgaria and finland really should be included, bulgaria were an axis power and finland was somewhat, in barbarossa especially new DLC looks good especially as the modded focus trees for romania and czechslovakia are retarded and broken but i'm sad there is no bulgaria :'(
i love HOI4 and bought all the DLC's but sometimes it feels like we're getting a little less than we're paying for especially considering modders are constantly making focus trees (albeit broken and OP ones) but i can't imagine it'd be too much work to add a couple more focus trees maybe if trees were released a region at a time.
I really hope more work is done on east asia it seems to be lacking as well as africa is somewhat pointless in the games besides the two naval choke points

I'm 99.999% sure that by equipment conversion they mean the following things: Stockpiled equipment turning into variants (e.g. Panzer III -> Panzer III Mk 2), and stockpiled equipment turning into other vehicles on the same chassis (e.g. Panzer III -> Grille).
@adam_grif is right.
Equipment conversion will not effect ships.
In HOI IV ships are not equipment. Ships are units. So a system to upgrade equipment effects different things. Can you make something that converts units from from type 1 mountain battalion to type 2? Yes. So can/have they develop a system for ship upgrade? Maybe but it would be different.
It is silly to have the ship and not be able to upgrade it, like, adding new fire control system or improving guns or engine. Hope, pdx understand that too.
Well currently you can have techs that improve ships. Things like adding RADAR to existing ships. It is a different mechanic. You don't have something like switch 8 inch guns to 10 inch on ship X by sending them back to the ship yards. I think this could be added, and maybe already in the works/development, but I am but saying unlike tanks & artillery ships are not equipment but units.
*Note once you add a mechanic for once type of equipment it is most likely able to be modded for other types of equipment.
Aye - the thing about techs is that it's free, when the upgrades should be a production choice, rather than a 'research this tech and everyone gets one' - but I suspect you don't disagree
. I'll be looking closely at the modding potential of the new mechanics in a naval sense, that's for sure.

I still cannot agree with this odd situation, when no existing ship or submarine can be modernized (new Anti-Air guns, Radars, ans so on) or captured by mine from a beaten enemy...
Or, when air forces are able to be teleported to any air base of an allied country far away from home bases...
Finally, Sahara is not passable in the new LDC... I hope...
PS suddenly I failed to help
King of Men
and every time when I here, I say my sorry to him
