well by all means, grab a fat-point Sharpie and draw a big freakin' asterisk on them. or, gasp for breath, and live w/ them the way they're printed.
The British light mortars don't have a star next to them either.Don't know if anyone else has mentioned this, but
The 51mm MTR's in Thai/Indonesian colors do not include the asterisk which ALL mortars do. (These have identical stats to the British light mortars, but are not marked with a (b).) I did not find any scenarios where these are used.
Those mortars actually don't need to have the asterisk on them because their range limitation (11 hexes) means that they will never get into a situation where the astrick'd nature of the gun factors into the long range modifiers of the C3 To Hit table (i.e. ranges > 13 hexes). So while technically you are correct, why clutter up the counter if one doesn't need to?Don't know if anyone else has mentioned this, but
The 51mm MTR's in Thai/Indonesian colors do not include the asterisk which ALL mortars do. (These have identical stats to the British light mortars, but are not marked with a (b).) I did not find any scenarios where these are used.
The British 51mm mortars don't have an asterisk either. As the * range penalty does not apply unless the range is 13 hexes or longer, the asterisk is irrelevant. I suspect they should have a (b) for nationality.The 51mm MTR's in Thai/Indonesian colors do not include the asterisk which ALL mortars do. (These have identical stats to the British light mortars, but are not marked with a (b).) I did not find any scenarios where these are used.
Admit it, you just had to include those toys. That's why we love B&J, totally completist! :thumup:Also, those mortars were not used in any of the current B&J scenarios, but they are now available for any future scenarios that BFP chooses to generate. This was done because it is more cost effective to do one print run with the counters that we will, or might, need rather than do counter print runs for counters as we need them for scenarios. Rest assured that you'll get your chance to use those in future scenarios.

Yes. That's where they are. In great abundance. I still haven't cut out all the singletons yet.Where do I find the Debris overlays mentioned in some of the B&J scenarios? Are they in Into the Rubble or somewhere else?
thanks for the update...about to start finally start playing B&J, not just admiring it as I have for the last several months hahah.. and was hoping there would be a summation of the errata.BFP3 Errata
The listing below is known errata for BFP3 Blood and Jungle.
BFP 32: Japanese Option should be > = 72
BFP 34: Chinese 50mm MTR(r ) should have 5PP

BFP 53: MISSION: change last sentence to 37A5-T5 road.
BFP 55: Options should be reversed
BFP62: The direction arrow should be pointing to the left instead of at the top of the page. It should have 8 turns instead of 7.

BFP3 Magazine Errata
In the article on Tank Hunter Heros, page 44 1st paragraph, it notes that, “The T-H Hero enters T4 where it wounds and so no longer has enough MF to get to the target in S4.” The article goes on to say that the T-H hero "will still be able to Advance into S4 in the Advance Phase". This is not correct. The T-H Hero, having spent 7MF when it became wounded, would be Pinned instead (Ref. A17.2, A25.23, G1.5 and G1.4 (with the journal #5 errata)), and hence it could not Advance.

BFP3 Q&A
Q. Are the gray circular structures on board BFP G Storage Tanks?
A. Yes.
Q. Are Thai, INA, IRA, BIA considered Axis Minor for Leader Creation?
A. Yes.
Q. What are the "RKT, First Shot"/'"RKT, Expended" counters for?
A. Those are referenced in BFP US Vehicle Note 4 for the LVT(A)2FS in the section that talks about the 150mm RKT SA. It is a two shot weapon - after the first shot the vehicle is marked “SA RKTs: 1st Fired”, and after the second shot is marked “SA RKTs: Expended”.
Q. There aren’t enough Japanese 89A Chi-Ho counters available for BFP-29. How does one handle that?
A. Use a 89B Chi-Ho as a surrogate 89A.
Latest version of sticky notes which includes updates to all of the errata above is located in the files below in both Letter (the 97.1 KB file) and A4 (the 97.0 KB file) sizes. The files are dated as of 2010/03/08.
Yes, it is.I presume the slightly smaller file (458.9 KB) is the A4 file?
The listing notes Japanese Elite as Stealthy, and since by A1.123 crews are considered elite, they would be included.Got mine this weekend - very nice package! Reading the article there seems to be two minor omissions:
Page 7: Detection (G.4)
Should also include Japanese Crews as Stealthy - it is mentioned later in Ambush (G.6).
