More feedback from my 1.03 SF game:
-The Danish Freikorps is an expeditionary unit from Denmark, why? Yes, they were Danish, but you get the unit after occupying their country..shouldn't the unit simply be a normal German unit? Also, why is Iceland and Greenland occupied by the UK? After Germany dow's Denmark, the Danes are allied with the UK.
-The Brits don't seem to care enough about Malta and Gibraltar. I've only ever seen one garrison division there, which isn't much. Maybe the fort levels could be increased, since Italy again took Malta? The African campaign has been far improved so far, the balance is very tight. Although I've now committed 10 divisions there, and a breakthrough seems to be finally at hand. One more thing: the UK's "reaction" event to the Afrika Korps fired again in Nov/41, is this intentional? I had taken the decision way before (and the same(?) reaction event fired then as well).
-Finland has far too little manpower. I began Barbarossa on the historical date, and then Finland had around 15 divisions, of which several were seriously understrength. They had 0 MP left. IRL the Finnish army had around 18 FULL strength divisions at the time, and maybe that not that much "MP" left, but there were still replacements left. I don't know how big losses they suffered during my game's Winter war, but I'm still asking for an increase in Finland's MP.
-I'll continue whining about my home country's situation
. At some point they were embargoed by Italy(??), and I'm 90% certain that Finland was neutral and at peace then. But what's more strange is that after they joined the Axis, they were subsequently embargoed by Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria, all part of the Axis too..??
-The Spanish Blaue-Division is created at 0 experience. I'm under the impression that they were experienced and good fighters (already when created), could their exp be increased? And please change the names of their regiments, from "Inf.-Rgt. XX" or whatever to "Infanterie-Regiment XX"! Same abbreviation is used with the Czech armoured units, at least. Also, could the default names of AA-regiments be changed to Flak-regiments, or something else if that's not the correct German name?
-Sadly, the USSR is still building rocket test sites, escorts, radars, infra, AA and other pretty much useless stuff. This was the case during my early attack, and seems to be even worse in 1942. And so far (it's about February -42 IIRC) their winter counterattack has been pathetic. I've lost 6 provinces, of which I've immediately reconquered two. (how come that they seems to always know if my divisions are at or near 0 ORG somewhere?? I haven't seen them flying air missions over the target provinces.) Maybe the Soviets could get an increase in their attack efficiency, while simultaneously decreasing Germany's defence efficiency? If these modifiers are already in use, they should IMO be increased. But please, don't lower the org of my troops any more! It's very frustrating when all units in a province are at zero org during the winter, meaning that they won't even fight.
The rest are probably vanilla-HoI issues (too), but I'll mention them anyway:
-The event which ends the Winter war gives too many provinces to the USSR.
-Could it be possible to upgrade panzergrenadier regiments to panzer regiments?
-Division commanders gain experience at a decent rate, corps commanders a bit slowly, but the higher level exp-gains are far too slow. My army commanders have gained just a little (some of them have fought from 9/39 to 3/42 now), army group commanders only a couple of points, and theatre commanders nothing.
Edit: One more issue, the USSR claimed Bessarabia in June 1940, and immediately after that the event where Romania asks to join the Axis fired (the event description says that it happened in November). I accepted, which means that the Second Vienna Diktat and claiming of South-Dobrudja wouldn't have happened. I edited those two so that they fired even when Romania was part of the Axis. So Romania should only ask to join the Axis somewhere around November?
