Hi, I installed and played patch 1.03b10 recently, had a game as UK and...
1st game as UK=
I got the Dieppe event, after some months the Dieppe expirience said it'd give +700% invasion, but I tried to land in Norway both one month and 5 months after this event (In 1943, having lots of necessary doctrines) with 3 marines lead by Lt General Mountbatten...
a -99% aphibious landing malus was on each of the 3 divisions.
Though I experienced a really challenging AI, especial in Air warfare! I really had to protect my fleet, even by the Italians in the med.
But oh, I noticed that the AI does not redeploy efficiently.
The US encircled Italians in Tunisia and Tripoli, but they sent 30+ divisions southwards to Sudan... w/o even controlling Suez, And they run out of supplies.
Germans were a bit lousy, too: Red Army reached Berlin while the Germans had dozens of divisions near Stalingrad, trying to push forward to... Sverdlovsk?
Eventually they managed to stabilize the front, perhaps because the Soviets had a bad event - I noticed 200/300 IC.
When the Yanks landed in France, they captured Berlin and the German Army was still in the Ukraine.
2nd game, as USSR=
everything was OK, I got my butt kicked in early Barbarossa (started May 28) then waited for the events...
GPW fired Oct 7 - everything fine.
No October revolution in 7.11.41 - damn, I needed this -2% dissent.
Industry damaged event fired - interesting, OK, I can deal with that...
And oh, War economy fired and I got -50% IC, but I think something was calulated wrong here.
Probably instead of not having +50%, I got it removed and suffered a -50% penalty as well. That left me with 210 of 384 IC - well, not good.
That must have happened to the AI when I played as UK.
I also saw that Japan is better, but mostly at land and not against the US in the Pacific.
The US is also not really aggressive in the Pacific. But I didn't reach 1945 in any game so far, so I could be wrong.
