Slovakia

Fair enough guys. Sorry, didn't mean to sound too petulant. Don't let my wife hearing you calling her beloved Slovakia a "minor eastern European country" though ;-)

"the name "Czechoslovakia" that appears in the game pops up in a dozen places in the code so to even attempt to "fix" what amounts to a very minor "problem" would require a great deal of effort and much re-writing of code"

Ohhh I know *that* game all too well. Nuff said.

You're wife can relax. If you read what Andy wrote carefully you'll see it wasn't "Slovakia" he was refering to.

It was probably spelling Czech as check that threw me ;-)

The code argument is a good one. I'm not a developer, but I've worked in software long enough to know the headaches apparently 'minor' changes can cause.

The "wasting an OOB slot for a name change in a minor eastern [sic] European country" argument is less strong I feel.

"Slovakia does have a separate oob - no. 51"

Now that is good news. I have in mind setting up a scenario where recent tensions between Slovakia and Hungary escalate into an armed clash. It's unlikely, but not impossible.

Anyway, thanks for the prompt answers.

Btw I'd try to have a more thorough look into it and report later, but there will be a mighty Czecho-Slovakian Battlegroup From what I've seen so far (no troop types etc. mentioned) it would consist of 1500 troops, 300 of them Slovakian, rest Czech - most likely a similar makeup as current Czecho-Slovakian battallion in KFOR, though on larger scale.

Will keep updated.
