I had my suspicion that it was due to not being in the same system as their HQ. Now I have to decide how long I allow this to go on, as these are big (for the NCN) ships with high fuel use normally, off the top of my head the 8th must have close to 8 million litres of fuel in their tanks. I figure I'll cheat for about another month until I have to send them back home to refit. In fairness then I'll have to do the rest of their training in Sol. This out of Sol training will have to wait it seems as the CA is the first ship that will have a flag bridge and that is held up due to the jump engine.
Thanks for clearing that up Byron.
