If the torpedo is too small you just wrap some rags and old underwear and such around it to get a rough fit. If too small you have the biggest guy in the crew hammer the end of it with a mallet until it scrunches into the tube.

Works with mortar shells, too.

If this is not a bug, then dutch subs are next to useless after they run out of ammo and after the fall of the DEI(due to short range from size 9 ports). The Dutch and British should have their own AS's and AD's.


I think the pertinent bit is:

This has been change so that allied ASs and ADs can reload allied subs and DDs.


If I'm reading it right - Allied AS's and AD's will now reload _all_ allied subs and DD's regardless of nationality where before they didn't.

If I'm wrong I'm sure I'll find out tonight when I try to reload my Dutch subs at Darwin with an AS rescued from the PI

Why is this not in the manual???

What about minelayers, do the British and Dutch need their own MLE's?


Subs always have a use as a slow as hell transport of troops or supplies.
Dutch Minelayers. Can they be upgraded? If so perhaps they can be used as an alternate
escort ship for convoys? Every AA gun is useful. IMO.

Yeah, we need those in. We ran out of time, basically, before release. It was fortunate that Joel and Rich got the Canadian and Dutch vessels, along with the USN additions in past the deadline.

Hey, Don! Can you send me those pics? Looks like Maidstone and Adamant. Got Lucia (a real old tub) and Wolfe?
