Mountain Warfare Equipment.

Ive had a look in the bug list for warfare, mountain and research and cannot find it!

Mountain Warfare Equipment requires Nylon to be research. By default Nylon needs to be researched. So why is this available at the start of the game?

1936 at least for UK and GER.

Shouldnt this be struck off from starting tech until nylon is research?

Indeed it was... They needed that specific tech, but enabling *ALL* prerequisites was over the top. Note though that ALOT of prerequisites were added in 1.03 and 1.03b that DID need to be in

Ok, thanks for the confirmation. This goes against my logic processes. How do you justify having something without its pre-requisites?

Did someone else give it to them? Does that country have nylon? There must be some country in the world in 36 that must have researched Nylon and at least them or another that can produce it, or at least a synthetic.

Am I wrong here?

No, you are 100% correct. But sometimes, you have to derive a little from historical accuracy for the sake of gameplay. If you give nylon to the Germans at start, it also means they have researched the Mass Assembly and Improved Synthetic Materials. On top of that, they'll be widely ahead in the industrial department. The thing you described is intended not to make the Germans too powerful
