You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
Who cheer when soldier lads march by,
Sneak home and pray you'll never know
The hell where youth and laughter go.

The Nampulas are long, long gone...

Okay, fixed. Thanks.
Seaplane Carrier Sulu
The Seaplane Carrier Sulu has been sold to Bharat for 3,169 tons.
Groovy.
Those of you counting Indian aircraft carriers can await some in-character developments in early 1942.

KA-ching!
The battlecruisers Samal and Bohol have been sold to Mexico for 9,000 tons, with payments commencing January 1942. Delivery will be effected at that time.
Fascinating. Actually, I think they'll fit Foxy fairly well...
They instantly become the 2nd and 3rd most powerful ships in the Mexican Navy. Definitely better than Villa, and right behind Chapultepec, IMHO.

If I had known that, I would have placed an offer as well in order to drive the price up.

Don't worry!
There are likely to be more vessels put on the block.

But those were the only GOOD ones.

They can't have been that GOOD, you didn't bid.
Hehehe, well the Villas were actually designed as pocket versions of the Samals.
Now all the ships in that design line can find their home in the Caribbean area, seeing as the Bolivar's (ex-Rio's) are also modified Samals. Speaking of which, Foxy, when I get around to drawing the Bolivar's up, I'll have a template to draw up the Samal's too.
Shiny! Well Latin America actually, because the Mexican ships will go on the Pacific side. I also consider the Chilean Constitucion a distant cousin of them via the Villas. Any other ships from the same lineage?

I was in negotiations with an interested 3rd party for me to operate as a middle man, but hadn't come to an agreement yet. I WAS willing to start at 5000t each...but alas...the bidding was over so quick. Oh, well.

Constitucion's more of the
Oyama-O'Higgins lineage than the
Villa lineage.
