Sorry if I'm lateon this one, but just getting off a serious run of business with school and work. Trying new patch and in my info ship availability screen tons of my ships are pending Soviet Activation. Why is thia? Bug?
Playing Grand Campaign with increased Jap forces and Quiet China (not Ironman).

No, not a bug at all, these are just soviet ships, that don't come into play until the soviets enter the war.

The filter is changed in patch 2 so that Soviet ships don't show up on the list until the Soviets activate. You can turn on the filter and see the Soviet ships if you want, they will just be filtered out by default.

Thankyou [&o]
saves me having to filter them out manually every time I go into the ship reinforcement screen.

Very nice, good that you're thinking about these little things that are none the less a bit annoying.

Yeah, but check out the list. Looks like al my CVs are dependent on Soviet activation. Am I reading this wrong somewhere?

The * next to the bases in the Arrival Locations column indicate those bases are off-map bases. In your screen shot, for example, Balboa is off-map, San Francisco is on-map. The ship arrivals are not dependent on Soviet activation.
The * for Soviet activation appears next to units in the ETA column. If you filter Soviet, the message "*=Pending Soviet Activation" will disappear.

I think we have an error in player notification. I hadn't noticed. I'll look into it.
