Yes, your advice (you gave it at least 2 times in this topic) is good & clever; if we play a scenario (not a campaign) or a very late campaign (41 is too early in my view) this xp problem is not that important.
Yet, personally, that for me wont do… since I think this game doesn’t excel in a tactical point of view, I don’t play “small” scenarios in likes of SCW or DAK; for that I play other games with many “ugly” little units

As you may have noticed Paradox games aren’t the “rocket science” of coding, what I and others like most of the coding is the way it is
open in the data department, so the users are free to change the “data” the
exe “uses”…
For instances, my SP version of the game is very different of the MP version…
Along the years, in an incremental way, I have changed my SP version of HoI1, HoI2, DD1.0 to my liking, ldrs, events, tech teams, AI files and such…
So, your events problem (the lacking of post 45 events) is easily overcame by the experienced player doing some modifications to the events files (just check the mod forums), notice that I’m
not saying Paradox shouldn’t have taken care of the problem itself…
As for the AI, well, the AI files are a bite tricky and not so easily modified unless you change only small things (in likes of what AI builds and such), this is because the “AI” files use simple binary logic (similar to the events one) to try to “preview” and “adapt” all situations we “teach it” …
It is basically a script, and a tricky one to modify, but there are a few people around this forum that know much about it and with time (what many don’t have) know it can be “improved”.
But there will be always a limit (without limiting the players options), since the player will always have much more imagination then a piece of code, for starts the AI should be a real (by definition) AI, it should learn by itself… and not scripted in a way of previewing as many situations as we can code in… how many game are there nowadays that have a “real” AI ? Things like genetic algorithms or learning matrixes have not come in a regular basis to the common game… there are quite a few good attempts and exceptions to this, but they are very few to my knowledge, and what is…
Oops, sorry, I was carried away, I could continue forever
In short the AI files can be modified also, but it is harder to do so…
Now, the xp “problem” (it is for me and others), in contrast with your “problems”,
can’t be dealt with in a legal way… since there are no data files to change

I will not go in the details of your post… 400+ posts before this one, went.
Just want to point out one thing…
We are in a
Forum,and...
If there is more then one intervenient,
all debate should exist (in a polite and organized way)… thanks for bringing your opinion to this debate
