What happened to the second Peruvian cruiser?

From the Peruvian Q4 report:

Quoted

Transactions - 1,624 tons to Germany for Quechua.
- 1547 tons to Germany for Quito.

Just shows you that you can't trust those Germans.

One of my two battlecruisers disappeared too!

In case of your BC, it is obviously a case of Canadian Super Science at work.

Why would Canada be concerned about Brazil's battlecruisers? I would say the more likely target is the Japanese . Or Hoo (looks for some sort of payment from the SAE to Germany).

Bah. The BCs are simple enough: I thought I'd copied and moved their entries but I really hadn't when I deleted them from the slips. The CL I hadn't entered in my spreadsheet for some reason, so I didn't put it on the writeup. I moved Munich so the Peruvian attache could visit both Quechua and Quito easily on the same trip.
