I've started all the nations in 1890. Why are most of the CAs and Bs illegal builds? Will that be changed in the future to have legal builds?
Thanks.

Are you using the latest update version of the game? ('Illegal' builds were addressed in an update...)

Thanks for the reply. I'm currently playing 1.00.14. That did have improvement, but I still get some designs that don't for building etc.

It is the case that a number of the starting templates in 1890 are, in fact, illegal if you attempt to build the ship yourself. These designs are legacy ships that use old technology or configurations that cannot be replicated in a new RTW3 design as they are outdated by time the game starts.

There may be a few designs, however, that we need to check to make sure they work as desired.

Here's a couple of examples. I downloaded the latest update and I'm playing Austria. I have a CL with 10' guns and my Bs have 12' guns which are not researched.

Are you referring to your initial fleet?
Some of the ships may be foreign built so your research limits do not apply.

Yes, and none are foreign built.
