Sorry, I didn't get around to reading these until now. Thanks for going to the effort to write these! Comments inline.

Maybe add "as specified elsewhere in these regulations" after "new ones are built"? I was confused when I first read this regulation that it's e.g. missing the requirement that you only build at home. Also, I didn't realize I'm supposed to include this as conditionals in my orders for the turn until re-reading. You might want to remind players. > 19.
