I think Soviet IC in 1936 is overrated: a better rate would be 150-155 in basic IC, instead of 178. At the contrary, Italian, French and Japanes IC should all be increased (I suggest by I+10 - F+5 - J+10).
British naval doctrines are underrated in my opinion: they should reach Naval attrition doctrine and Commerce protection doctrine.
Italy (adding to my previous thread) should have early marine infantry in 1936.
British and American pre-1939 and pre-1942 human resources should be minimised, even no more than 50 in stock with no more than 0.1/day increase until mobilisation is not declared.
Countries' AI should be "forced" to build more infrastructures (roads, airports, harbours, AA etc.) and factories than it does now; it should be forced also to research more doctrines; British, Japanese and American researches should be preferably pointed on naval, air and industrial instead than infantry or armor or land doctrines (which naturally should be researched, but with less priority than the other ones).
Two or more Nations should be able to form a "front" against a common enemy without involving in an alliance, even before war breakes.
Claiming territories of another Nation should be a casus belli to declare war with half the dissent.
Motorised infantry should no more derive from semi-motorised cavalry, which instead should be directly preliminary to armoured cavalry; also, historical year of motorised infantry could be changed from 1939 to 1937, deriving only from early infantry; or a new research like "semi-motorised infantry" (faster than infantry but slower than motorised infantry) could be added for 1937 as preliminary to motorised infantry, deriving from early infantry, while motorised infantry could derive from semi-motorised infantry and basic infantry.
Self-propelled artillery guns should derive from tank models too, as it was in history and as it is in the game for anti-tank and rocket self-propelled guns.
It is unlikely that, expanding industry, research teams are always the same: I suggest that, every 3IC more in basic IC, one research team (randomly) to have 1 skill point more.
It is unlikely too that a research team would not acquire new knowledges while researching new sectors: any research team should gain a new knowledge in a sector that it has researched for 5 times (e.g. a company without "artillery" which researches on fighter planes would acquire it after five times it has researched it, or a man without "training" who researches on land doctrines the same) until the maximum of 5 research sectors for that team.
Moreover, even with malus, annexing a country should mean also acquiring its research and research teams: maybe only the researches immediately researcheable (as for trading researches among allies), and only some (one on two? chosen randomly?) research team acquired (maybe also with less the skill they have).
