0.11.7 Puerto Rico Dockyard
When will Puerto Rico return?
During 0.11.7, the Dockyard will see the return of X Puerto Rico.
The mistakes with the first Puerto Rico Dockyard, and the changes that WG made to rectify the problem.
The first Dockyard with X Puerto Rico was very complicated and not the most successful from the perspective of its design and mechanics, WG say they have taken all of their mistakes into account and reworked the event design.
What if you already own Puerto Rico?
If you already own X Puerto Rico, upon completing the shipbuilding you will receive a Puerto Rico certificate and special Armory section will be available to you. There you will be able to exchange the certificate for 35,000 doubloons, 33,000 steel, 63,000 Research Points or 264,000 coal of your choice. Thus, for completing the shipbuilding you will be able to purchase any other available Tier X Resource ship.
