JFalk68 gave me an idea from his thread about Italy.[8D]
Historicaly, both the Axis powers and the Allies/Americans (and to a lesser extent) the Soviets all shared research breakthroughs. The Germans at one point even gave a working jet engine and plans to the Japanese (aircraft tech level 5.)
Of course, you can always hope that your ally will give you some PP that you can spend on research (the gift that keeps on giving!) but perhaps we could consider reducing the cost of researching a tech level after it has been discovered by someone else and say a year has passed. (The Germans and the Brits traded radar technology back and forth throughout the war by reverse engineering wrecked ships and planes. And of course the Sovs just flat stole the B-29.[X(])

Not to mention the German physicists America stole.

It can be simulated trough events.
Someone has to research how.

Pun intended? [:D]
