The patch is still growing:
New units will be added-
P-80 Shooting Star
IS-3
Panzer 35 (t)
Panzer III Flamm
Schwimmpanzer II (A PzIId that can change into a naval unit and cross oceans - 2 fuel max!)
Atomic Bomb Unit!!!!!!! (US only)
Also, V1s and V2s will become purchaseable (Tac Bombers)
Revamped Victory Conditions:
Axis Global Domination: All objectives on the globe captured.
Axis Victory: All objectives in Europe, South East Asia, China and the Pacific captured.
Allied Victory: All objectives captured/owned. This is only achieved as an Axis player vs AI, or if extension of game is denied
NATO Victory: All objectives owned by NATO countries following Allied player's choice to extend game
USSR Victory: All objectives owned by USSR or Communist China following game extension
The most massive change ever done in a mod is coming: The "Hybrid Scenario" - following the end of World War II, a choice panel will appear on the map, allowing the Allied player to either:
A - End game with an Allied Victory
B - Continue game into the early 1950s as the NATO powers (primarily Nationalist China, USA and Great Britain)
C - Continue game into the early 1950s as the USSR.
To make this change work, certain zones will flip from their original locations to the choice panel (Most likely China and France) - and the changes brought about by the Yalta conference (in terms of occupation zones etc.) will always take effect.
Furthermore, the South American countries will now be represented, and can be triggered by moving a unit (of either side) near the continent.
Scenario length will increase from 107 Turns (Oct 1947 end) to 180 Turns (May 1953 end), should the game extension take effect.
Old Changes:

- cities now have labels underneath them, so you can see what they are without mousing over them (like in Strategic Command)
- There will be a new opening screen, like I added in WWI v1.1
- stronger Afrikakorps
- Less mobility in China (with invisible rivers)
- France now stronger

As a result of all this, I'm thinking of renaming the patch to v2.0.
Now post, before my stormtroopers use their cruise missiles (surely you have something to say about this mega-patch) - even if you are asking me how the hell I will make this work.
