Will there be a Military Market in MH2? And with a Military market, I mean a market of Supply and Demand of Military tanks, planes and other military hardware. In that case you can sell equipment you do not need, or you want to give something away to a friend, but you want some money in return.
Only downside: Maybe you don't want some unfriendly nation to buy superieur military hardware then you have, but that raises the question if there is any difference in comparable hardware. Like, is a basic fighter made by Germany just as good as a basic fighter made by the US or is there some difference between them?

Not in this release. It's a fun idea that we've considered adding to a modern war MH version - if one is developed.

honestly, if you were to add a limited war capabillity to the engine, and the abillity for entirely new resources to be discovered (someone invents uses for oil), and finally if you make a way to ensure that preparation only does so much, and finally if you were to add ages or something into the tech tree, then you could make this game last for the entire span of human history.

All of human history 1 week at a time. That actually seems appealing to you?

in that case a small nation which does not can do much research will have a military with swords and bows, and then the most powerfull nation will fight with lasers and spacecrafts? Who will win a war between them?

I think that a military market could be very good. And its really realistic cause Uk would never win in El Almein with out Shermans and they needed the American ships and jeeps to!
Most part of UKs militarys weapons adn veichels came from USA and almost all USSR jeeps came from USA!
A military market would have made the new game soooooooooooo GOOOODD!!!
But Ralph have spooken ......

That was under the Lend Lease program, not exactly a "military market." It's pretty much giving foreign aid and not selling equipment.

They already have it in MH, well, to an extent they have it. You just offer them arms, it basically the same thing.

The ability to give units to other countries would be a huge change in the game. For example most times when I play rise of the reich when the Spanish civil war starts the Nationals usually get their butts kicked. Even with goods and arms aid they usually lose. The only was to ensure victory for them is to send my forces into Spain to help them. Now if I could just give them units to fight with it drasticly changes the odds for the country. I really like this idea and feel that the developers should add this into a mod for MH2. If not they should look into adding it for the next generation of the game.

This is appealing feature that I would like to see in the game at some point too and I don't believe it would be difficult to implement within the current design. Unfortunately it won't likely happen until after we ship.

Who will win a war between them? Actualy, if i had bows and arrows against that equipment, i would KNOW i would win, but only if i at least have a giant super laser to detroy whatever planet (probaly earth) and be the last human to survive but the first to make a spa for aliens that would appear on mars after the earth was destroyed. NOW this is a great scenario that i should make!! ;)
