From what I understood earlier, occupied provinces give 50%, while all annexed provinces give 100%.

However, BiB's response has confused me, since I'm not sure if he's referring to occupied or annexed provinces (I think just occupied, but I'm not sure).

My two cents:

IC system is rather solid, however, needs some tweaking to make things more balanced.

World trade and the resource system needs a better look-see... Resources should be a major problem, and when the Axis go to war and their main sources of trade are cut off (or nearly so... should be a much greater hit than 50%, IMO), the situation should become rather desperate. The Germans and Japanese got virtually no oil from trade after a certain point... it just didn't happen. That's why Ploeisti and the conversion plants were so important to the Germans.

The problem is that the AI doesn't build enough units...

When I invaded France in spring of '40 I only had to face about 12 (!) divisions, with the French having about 5 other divisions WAAAAY in reserve scattered about the country. After such a pathetic showing, I decided to check and see what the USSR was up to, and it turns out they had about 25 divisions total on their entire western border. :(

The German armies are also way too strong... they can beat any country they fight rather easily. Their tech and organization superiority is enough to fight nearly every country in Europe simultaneously I figure.
