Economic Tech tree

Hello once again Ladies and Gents, if been a way for a while due to RL. For a while I watched several threads pop up about economics and I'd like to chime in.

The economics in CoW are dulled down and often left at the way side. In a game which far out strips S1914 in oil use (three types of tanks, 5 types of ships, planes ect) our nations economies are often being destroyed despite our best efforts.

While the game forces you to advance on wards and take more land, each time you build units to take more land, you use up resources and thus worsen your economy and upon taking new land, you're situation hasn't improved. I believe we've all looked at our oil and went "Oh lord"

So, I would like a tech tree which helps improve our domestic fronts. Things such as oil pumps (in order to produce, well, more oil) grain silos, Warehouses to hold stock pile of general goods, steel works and such things.

Also, I'd like to see a small upgrade to port cities: as a way of increasing grain production, we should be able to make 'fisheries' and have a small increase to grain (yes, I know its not fish, but grain is general food: no one wants to eat bread all year round, every month and every day)

So, if we can get some idea's, maybe we can have a full tech tree going

And you opposed, my idea of spy planes, that would actually find these yolks..
Grand then.

Corona started in '56 and the Leopard MBT in game is from '65.
I may be wrong, but I dont think the Corona launched till 59..

and they were not able to detect hidden missile silos, in the Rockies

I just stated the project start date. Although '59 is still 6 years before '65.

Artillery could not fire 50km either.

We also have the Kirov II cruiser, which was laid down in the 1970s

I don't think giving all nations a Kirov II will be historically accurate :P

Dont know, why you mentioned Artillery? But eitherway, you can hidden missile silos.

But what other ideas, would you like to see?

Spy planes could not spot mountain silo's but that could be changed, since in this game there are other unrealistic things.

Soooo many. None are springing to mind though, I might start a blog somewhere to keep my thoughts...

Yes, fine spy planes can spot them..

I have no bother with that, but regular aircraft on patrol, cannot

Yes, I made a long list, then posted it..
