Can't create PT Boats

Post by jhdeerslayer »

It has been this way for weeks now it seems in my game. I see 6 PT's are available but can't seem to build any at my major ports either with or without the TF procedure. Attached Save and hopefully not wasting your time with something stupid I did.

The six PTs boats in the queue are all Dutch. These are boats that were in play at the start of scenario one. Did you return them to the pool?

PTs (and other buy-for-supply types) have nationalities and can only be created by bases of corresponding or complementary nationalities. Dutch boats require a Dutch base or a TF that was loaded at a Dutch base. You've lost all the large Dutch bases so these boats are pretty much stuck until you win some back.

Complementary nations, by the way, are groups like British/India/Commonwealth, all the US variations and the Philippines, Japanese Army and Navy, plus others with Australia, New Zealand, and Canada.

Thanks Dan! I was not obvious to me they were Dutch and yes I must have disbanded some early on in the game.
