I downloaded it, opened it up and found 3.35MB worth of tech pictures.
That would make a good pic for say 'Forward Field Kitchens'. (Too bad there is not a unit morale number that it could affect.)
Tech Description: "By organizing cooks and bringing them to the front with mobile kitchens front line troops can get at least some of their meals warm."
Bonus: +1% to infantry divisions
(My reasoning: Cavalry/Armor was usually in the rear waiting for a breakthrough, militia/reserves wouldn't normally have the equipment/supply resources for this, and mountain troops would have to haul that stuff up a mountain...a bit of a task.)

Bah, thanks to a bug in the november 1914 scenario, the austrian grand admiral has taken the austrian flagship up into the mountains to fight the serbs...
But it seems like a good tech.
Some new infantry tech pictures:
1004 Divisional telegraph system
1006 Army telegraph system.
(We could also use this picture for 1005, Corps telegraph system)
1106 Alpinist equipment
1153 Casualty clearing station
1154 Advanced dressing stations
1155 Advanced dentistry
1157 Veterinary corps
1160 Bromide
We do already have a picture for 1175 Animals at war, but here's a photo of a cute kitten sitting on an artillery shell.
1178 Spy pigeon
1179 Anti-pigeon falcons
(We could also use this picture for 1005, Corps telegraph system)

Stephen, the picture for animals at war is the same kitten sitting on a shell...
And the spy pigeon is the same as messenger pigeons.

Yeah, but you can't actually see the kitten in the current picture, it's so small. I've enlarged and cropped the original.
More infantry techs
1200 Basic signals system
1207 Flare pistol
1351 Army accommodation
1352 Army leave
1355 Troop rotation
1408 Modern medical provisions
1409 Basic body armour
1501 Anti-tank mine.
(Actually a modern one - I'm not sure they had anti-tank mines in the First World War. )
1503 anti-tank rifle
(And note that it doesn't use the rifle grenade principle, despite what the tech description currently says.)

Last batch of infantry tech pictures
1504 Portable pontoon bridge
1601 Divisional wireless system
1803 Antibiotics
(The 'Glaxo' logo on one bottle may be slightly anachronistic, but then again penicillin wasn't actually produced commercially until late in WW2, so the point is rather moot. )
1804 Insulin
1805 Blood transfusions
1806 Infection control
(Actually a photo of Dr Salk, inventor of the polio vaccine, but it just seemed like a good picture to use)

Pigeon singular, actually, seeing as I count only one pigeon related tech - spy pigeons - without a photo. (not counting the one posted above)
And as for that particular advance, this picture of a German-trained pigeon brushing up on Britain's transport infrastructure ought to do the trick:
A point regarding seaplane carriers - seeing as the very first ones were just large passenger ships altered suitably, then shouldn't tech 6608 - Seaplane Carrier - do without Improved Cruiser and Carrier Hull as a prerequisite?
Hmmm... we could add a 'passenger liner' tech, like CORE has, and use it as a prerequisite...
Guys, how about attaching the first levels of the vanilla tech tree to the TGW tech tree?
Zuckergußgebäck said:
For which tech fields in TGW, and using which techs from HOI?
Well... what are we missing? Something like industry and infantry?
I know that we do have to ignore the first vanilla levels, especially industry, but say that we start at the following gold techs:
INFANTRY
Basic infantry weapons and Battlefield C3I
INDUSTRY
Hydrogeneration, Plastics (needs some modifying) and Catalytic cracking
