Guys seriously... from all I read you seem to presume that 90% are playing IC over Armageddon. (patch only works when playing over Armageddon etc.)

Let me assure you that this is not correct.

You're mistaken, we do not assume anything. If this guy is playing over Arma then maybe he deselect/select that option on the setup, if he's playing over AoD/DH then the problem is not in Iron Cross but on AoD/DH instead

so what can i do?

most likely nothing as this is an AoD "feature" since 1.06 or 1.07

This seems like a disturbing imbalance, what were the AoD designers attempting to do? Aside from taking longer to gain experience at the higher ranks where is the balance at all? This allows me to take my lvl 4 Major Generals that I start with (as Japan) and step promoting them to Field Marshall from the outset (or any number of lesser Major or Lt Generals) while still pursuing rapid skill gain for any number of other Major Generals? Not only does this seem unrealistic, but it cannot be historically accurate either, given that I could have at least 2 lvl 4 Field Marshalls from the outset that are superior to my 3 best historic Generals.

As an aside, Ive noticed a few other quirks with AoD and I'm beginning to wonder if Arma is the more mature choice after all. I'm new to AoD and gleaned from this forum it was the most balanced of my choices. Can someone chime in whether or not this is actually the case??

Thanks for any feedback re: either subject.

i totally agree with you, before when i used to play AOD+IC with older AOD patches I used to enjoy the following things:

- France has 90 divisions by 1940, now france has 30 divisions by 1940.
- Nationalist spain and republican spain fight until atleast 1937, now the war ends as soon as it starts
- China and japan used to end with either japan winning or china holding out all the way until 1941
- AI will actually try to influence you, now AI seems to do nothing apart from intelligence and ruining relations
- this promoting feature makes no sense whatsoever
- air units lose organization and damage very quickly while they do very little damage in return making them useless
- all the events fire at the wrong time after DANZIG or WAR, all 2 months early or 1 month late, cant you just set a date for poland 1939, it always fires accurately so why all other events messed up?

probably if i play this game now i will remember more things that the old patch was much better.

This is not an IC problem, its AOD problem. but IC why do you only fix and add features for ARMA and IC not AOD and IC? wake up!
