Small thing I just noticed: Starting in 1936, I am missing two basic Med Bomber 1936 techs (the yellow/gold ones). Was this always the case?
yes, it was always that way.

bloomberg went into exile for one year to capri but he remained a fieldmarshal of the german army but he did not get a post during the war.
fritsch was rehabilitated but he did not get back his post. he was named cornel-in-chief of his old regiment. getting no command of its own he went to war with his old regiment (to seek his death?).
so i would say it is okay that both remain in the leader pool because they were still officers. that hitler did not appoint them is another problem.
I read in Geert Mak's 'In Europa' an interview with a family member (daughter?) that Fritsch went to the most forward position on purpose, in all likelyhood to seek an honourable death.
Have not been able to play new patch yet, but I started it up and got a checksum of CIKU with it on 204f. The new sub techs were there for positioning and moral.
Thanks for the fast work getting that out!
How do you get China to join Axis? I can invite them, but they always decline in all my games ("Impossible").
Can you upload a savegame about this supply issue please?
I don't have that in my games. :/

I'm currently using steam, version 2.04D (ingame startup menu) - which handles patches for me automatically.
I'm not so familiar with software installing stuff, so, can I add your beta patch?
how to apply the patch?
thanks
S.
This savegame is corrupted either on 1.0 or 1.01 Dies Irae. :/
With 2.04f and DI I get the same checksum. About the supply problem, I don´t know if it´s a DI problem or a vanilla problem, because it was 2 or 3 months ago the last time I played vanilla. Perhaps it was a bug introduced in the 2.04d patch, or perhaps not, however, I don´t see many people here saying a word about it, is anybody else experiencing astronomical (let´s say, more than 80 or 90 IC dedicated to it) supply expenditure?, because it´s quite of a serious bug.
PS. I started a new game with the last beta patch (2.04f AND 1.01 beta) installed. However, I am still in 1937, and problems began last time when invading Poland (and they went partially away when Poland went GiE), so I can´t upload a savegame now, because now there aren´t any supply problems, but I´ll do as soon as I find the problem again.
The names of the planes have changed, but still the submarines have the same skin on the map. I think U-II should get the U-II skin from my "German Spritepack 2".
Possible Bugs:
I spotted a possible new bug with the patch. I started a new game and I got the Unleash the UBoats event on January 2nd or 3rd. On January 1st I had started to research the long range subs hull technology. The long range seub conning tower was grey out and it said I need some long range flag to be set. It is now May 1937 and the tech is still not available as its greyed out. When is this flag supposed to be set so I can research the 1934 long range sub conning towers?
I got my relationship with Romania up over 100 by June 1936 and the strategic effect tab appeared showing a 25% increase to fuel and oil. But it appears the actual numbers never changed. It is really hard to see the exact numbers because they change so often. But oil went from 13.27 to 13.32 after the event and fuel changed from 14.71 to 14.72 the next day. After that fuel went red for a day and both fluctuated. Does this effect appear in the tooltips? If is does then I don't see it there.
Observations:
Nat Spain won before the end of 1936. Adding leadership to service laws really helped with having enough leaders for research. In October 1937 I received the Goering for armaments minister decision. I decided against puttin him in the spot. I did try testing to see if I appointed him there would the decsion come back and it did not. This may be WAD. If WAD and you go against Goering is this the only decision/event that it impacts, or are there others?
In my game I was in Nov 1939 and the Long U boat option is still greyed out. I think it's most likely a bug but I havne't look into the txt file.
I can confirm this bug.
EDIT: Another - bug or not I am not sure. You can't move the Goering Fallschirmjäger Regiment, I think you know that. And that was cool when it came as a unique unit spawned in Berlin, but I think now that you can assign it to any unit anyway it should be able to move. For example I accidentally placed it in my theatre HQ, and now its basically useless. Well, not basically. It IS useless.
