So I was unpacking from ASLOK today and filing all my new kit, including my copy of Crucible of Steel. And I was trying to integrate all my BFP stuff and the rules page series (singular or plural, I'm not sure) has gotten increasingly confusing. It looks like for the "Chapter B" green pages, it started as one series and now has split into two: HBR and Aircraft. But I'm not sure how it's all intended to fit together. Here's a detailed list of what I think came in each product (with a little help from Desperation Morale)...
**********
Into the Rubble
ITR HBRs, Page Numbers BFP 1 & BFP 2 (1 sheet), both in Chapter B Green, Rules Sections 1-10
Beyond the Beachhead 2
BtB HBRs, Page Number BFP 3 (1 sheet), in Chapter B Green, Rules Sections 1-6 (with errata for ItR and HoW on back)
Operation Cobra
1) Aircraft of Operation Cobra, Page Numbers BFP 4 & 5 (1 sheet), both in Chapter B Green, Rules Section 1 & Examples of Play
2) Operation Cobra Vehicle/Ordnance Notes, no page numbers, front & back of 1 sheet (Raketenwerfer on front, US vehicles on back), Chapter H Yellow
Blood & Jungle
1) Aircraft of Blood & Jungle, Page Numbers BFP 6-10 (3 sheets, back of final page blank), Rules Sections 1-4 & Examples of Play, Chapter B Green
2) Japanese Paratrooper Rules, Page Numbers BFP 1-2 (1 sheet front and back, though the back is blank), Rules Sections 1-5, Chapter G Green
3) Blood & Jungle Vehicle/Ordnance Notes, no page numbers (front and back of 14 sheets, back of final page blank), (4 pages US, 2 pages ANZAC, 8 pages Japanese, 2 pages Chinese, 4 pages KNIL, 1 page Thai, 2 pages Indonesian), Chapter H Yellow
High Ground 2
BFP Terrain Rules, Page Numbers BFP 1-4 (2 sheets), Rules Sections ITR 1-10, BtB 1-6, B&J 1, HG 1-2, Chapter B Green (this reprints all of the terrain rules from previous BFP products)
Crucible of Steel
1) CoS HBRs, Page Numbers BFP 5-8, Rules Sections 1-9 (two sheets, back of second page is errata, etc. for B&J), Chapter B Green
2) Aircraft of Kursk, Page Numbers BFP 11-16, Rules Section 8 & Examples of Play (3 sheets)
3) Crucible of Steel Vehicle Notes (front and back of 3 sheets), (4 pages German, 2 pages Russian), Chapter H Yellow

I believe I have everything. I've never seen reference to anything I don't have. Though in the case of CoS, I'm not 100% sure. Should I have gotten a BFP 9&10 in CoS? I actually think not.
It looks like it all started as one series (Chapter B Green, BFP 1, 2, etc...) but now the Chapter B Green has been split into an HBR Series and an Aircraft Series, so that replacing the earlier HBRs with High Ground 2 reprints, there are three series of rules pages plus notes. This is based primarily on page numbers and feel, since I'm confused by the rules sections. Why CoS aircraft start at Section 8, for instance...
1) HBRs, pages BFP 1-4 in HG2, BFP 5-8 in CoS [Chapter B Green]
2) Aircraft, pages BFP 4-5 in OpCobra, BFP 6-10 in B&J, and BFP 11-15 in CoS (no BFP 1-3 in this series) [Chapter B Green]
3) Japanese Paratrooper Rules, pages BFP 1&2 in B&J [Chapter G Green]
4) Vehicle/Ordance Notes (not numbered, 2 pages (1 sheet) in OpCobra, 27 pages (14 sheets) in B&J, 6 pages (3 sheets) in CoS [Chapter H Yello]
Is that all correct? Any additional help or insight would be appreciated. Thanks.
