austria's "actual" country tag is GER
meaning that, if annexed, anything that remains will count as if it had been natively German to begin with.

In the case of Germany and Austria, Austrias .INC-file (found in the folder that belongs to each scenario) has "regular_id = GER" (without the "" of course) written under the country-clause. This can be made with any other country. The only drawback is that, in this case, Austria will never accept peace with Germany if they ever go to war.
This can also be used to simulate a country "becoming" another one. When/if SOV is defeated and the player releases RUS, RUS will get all of SOV's (remaining) army because SOV's regular id is RUS. 
I doubt that. There are basically two ways of that happening - Germany controlling pretty much all of Russia west of the Urals, or the SU actually annexed. There are obviously no SOV troops left in the latter case. In the former, all SOV troops will still stay SOV. The only way situation you describe happens is if RUS/Axis annexes SOV, with some SOV troops still in the field.
You doubt what? That SOV's regular id is RUS? Then go check it yourself. I'm not saying anything other than the fact that when SOV becomes RUS, all of its troops will become RUS as well. That's all I'm saying. I don't care how it becomes RUS, the fact is, when SOV becomes RUS, its troops will be transferred as well because its regular id is RUS.Alexander Seil said:
Similarly, if Germany becomes Guatemala by event, all German troops will fly the Guatemalan flag! Regular id is irrelevant in that case. That parameter comes in only under highly specialized circumstances (forced annexations by either side and such). What you said before didn't make any sense whatsoever - if SOV is "defeated", it's either annexed (in which case no SOV troops are left TO BEGIN WITH), or Germany is able to release RUS from occupied territories (in which case everything remains as before).
Fact 1: SOV's regular id is RUSAlexander Seil said:
Fact 2: When SOV becomes RUS, all of its troops transfer to RUS.
Which one don't you understand?
