I feel your pain dude, a couple of years back I purchased my last CH product, Hue, what a hot steaming load of crap that was. Awesome looking map but no substance what so ever. Thankfully I am not a completist, collector or a hoarder so I can let many products just slide by without a glance.

Do you have Critical Hit's Tarawa? I don't have CH's Hue. I almost bought Hue, but got Tarawa instead. I took a shot, thinking I could get my Tarawa fix for less $$$$ than MMP's Tarawa for $400.00 on ebay.
Boy, did I get terrible value for my money. CH's Tarawa is absolute junk. As the OP said of Critical Hit's "Hue", Critical Hit's Tarawa has the same problem... nice map (except the panels, which are terrible to work with - don't let Duh Ratt's hyperbole throw you off). None of the scenarios could possibly have been playtested, and they are full of errata. One of them supposedly represents the Marines landing, yet allows all the USMC units that start on land, to set up not only behind Japanese lines, but also behind every Japanese unit.
Looking back on my purchase of Critical Hit's "Tarawa", I would have been better off just giving the money to Duh Ratt and NOT receiving the game. The money I can make again - but, the bad times I suffered through with CH's garbage-can retread of "Tarawa", I can never get back. Way to go, CH!!! Onwards - and downwards... just when you thought the bar couldn't get any lower...
Contact CH and ask for errata corrections? Sure - the clown tells you to change whatever you need to change to make the game work.
If you have CH's Tarawa, I'd be curious to hear your impressions.
Super Bowl? College Bowl games? Your copy of Critical Hit's "Hue" vs. my copy of Critical Hit's "Tarawa" - we could have our own ASL "Critical Hit's Toilet Bowl" showdown - the worst of the worst - Critical Hit's "Hue" vs Critical Hit's Tarawa" - which one is more full of sh!t???
Anyway, sorry to hear of your negative Critical Hit "Hue" experience.
