Thanks for advice help.

IC over AoD = 5 tech teams max. You can change this with a program that gets installed with IC but would not recommend it. Will greatly favor any country with a huge "base ic" as AoD is based on your industry to get more techs, 100 techs get 5 teams 200 = 10. Hope this answers first part of question.

Second, research is different no base years to curtail when you research it just as long as you have all the prerequistes done first. There is another program that came with IC that helps you learn what "additional techs" need to be researched for you to get to SMG, Tanks, etc. It is in root of IC called 'tecnoflechas.exe. Open it up choose your language preference and load it. Then click on the tech you want to learn, click 'view details' and it will show you what techs you need and where they are in relation to the tech tree overall. Some techs will go really deep into other areas just to open up say "tanks" so it takes some time.

Hope this helps you.

what program file is needed to restore the AoD tech team number

I would like to restore the Aod tech team slots to the cross of iron game. Five was fine for the regular games but with the hundreds of new technologies there isn't any way to build them fast enough to even maintain historical levels.
Since there isn't a way to adjust the slots in the program that i have found, i'd love to know which folder/list gets the job done.

The only place that shows the build requirements is the separate tech tree guide. This really needs to have the list with the single button display built into the tech screen!!

i changed mine from 5 to 7... as germany is tart in 1933 and build a lot of industries... sure the USA has an advantage but it will be challenging later... plus they will need much of their industries later for upgrading...

So my question is how and where do you change it. I would very much appreciate it if you could let me know. Thank you so much.

Parches Hoi2-AoD.exe in the main folder of the game.

Yep. Using that application, click on the first option (Patchs) and the you can increase you max allowed teams to 10

Dont know how many games you've played yet (or which countries) - but I'm on about my sixth attempt as Germany and finally getting the hang of it. Playing the 33 campaign I focused a lot of my 5 slots on the many 'quick' techs - ie those where everything is lvl.2 or 3 - and those I had blueprints for. This way by 38 I had my research speed upto 120% + - and now in Aug 39 am quite happy with my progress towards aircraft / armor / land doctrines / intel etc - doesn't feel very different from vanilla AoD.

In earlier games I focused more on early industrial research - so by time Barbarossa came along I was down to about 80% research. A pointer that I was probably getting it wrong was that when I allied with Hungary they were able to give me about 12 blueprints (!) - so clearly the AI follows a different path than I tried in my earlier games.

Where does one find his current research speed? Everytime I hover my cursor over any of my tech research in progress, it always shows that my research is going at 100%. The ONLY time this has ever changed is if I am not allocating enough IC to my tech research.

Evidently, I am not looking at the right place to see an accurate picture of my research speed.

It's under Technology tab. Click Overview and look at the lower left corner.

Thanks, Julle64!

I have run the Parches (patches) app in the AoD folder and reset the max tech slots to 10. However, when I re-open Iron Cross and start up a new game as Germany, I still have only 5 slots available.

Also, as a side note, I tried to select 9 as the max and received an error message stating something about the min/max limit. Do I need to enter the amount in double digit format (e.g. 09 instead of just 9). Not that this will really matter, because it seems as though even when I think I have changed the tech slot limit, it stays at 5 anyway.

How the hell do you actually change the limit? The app seems intuitive, it even gives me an "OK" message when I click the "Patch It" button, but it seems that nothing actaully happens. Any thoughts?
