- Island next to Soerabaja - Again, the troops refuse to get on the planes from Soerabaja from like 2 hexes away.

The base is Pamekasan. The Dutch unit there is yellow-restricted (R), which means it first has to be bought out with PPs and attached to an unrestricted HQ. Cheapest option is to change its HQ to ABDA Command. Changes within the same command structure cost 1/4 of the nomninal PP cost. Here it will be 1/4 of 110 PPs, so you pay 28 or 29 PPs for the HQ change.

Once they are bought out, form an Amphibious TF in Sorebaja with two small xAPs and sail to Pamekasan to pick up the unit. Set the Pamekasan unit to Combat mode in order to load it on the ships. Since the unit is big, the TF will have to go to Pamekasan 2-3 times to load the entire unit.

Just use the Dutch transport aircraft to pick them up.

Just use the Dutch transport aircraft to pick them up.

I tried that, but they would not transport them. Patrol aircraft using the "Pick Up Troops" mission worked.

That’s weird I do it all the time. Put them in Soerbaja and use the pickup command.
