I would appreciate if you could squeeze all the errata onto one page. That saves a sheet of the label material, which is reasonably expensive.
Your wish is my command. Squeezed down to one page. No other changes included content-wise.I would appreciate if you could squeeze all the errata onto one page. That saves a sheet of the label material, which is reasonably expensive.
Ken,I found a trivial error. In Aircraft of Blood and Jungle, section 1.1, the aircraft types should be the F4U Corsair and the F6F Hellcat. This is what happens when you let an Army type mess with airplanes.
Look in the BFP US Vehicle Notes under 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 with a RKT First Shot and then after the second is marked RKT Expended.Just out of curiosity, what are the "RKT, !st shot"/'"RKT, Expended" counters for?
I skimmed the magazine and various rules pages and it didn't jump out at me.

I'm assuming that you are referring to VASL counters and maps. You would be safe in assuming that, BTW. We are hard at work on both those fronts. This will take a little time to do since there are a lot of counters and basically three mapboards. Hopefully folks will be happy with the results.Hopefully I'm safe in assuming that various elves are working on the maps and counters for this baby.
BTW The magazine was awesome, probably the best ASL publication I've seen.

Jon thanks for pointing this out. Am sorry I missed this bit...My apologies to everyone.Hi
Got my BFP 3 today. Looks great
Another small piece of errat, not for the scenarios but for one of the magazine articles, if you are interested.
In the article on Tank huntert heroes, page 43 1st paragraph:
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 as the T-H Hero, having spent 7MF when it wounded, would be pinned. Rules References A17.2, A25.23, G1.5 and G1.4 (with the journal #5 errata)
Hence it could not advance.
Cheers

One very, very small nitpick.
From looking at photographs, the 37mm hull gun on the Type 97B Shi-Ki seems long enough to be at least equivalent to the 37mm on the Type 95 Ha-Go and thus should be a 37 rather than a 37*.
For example http://www.sonicmodel.com/photo.htm?url=http://images.sonicalbum.com/bbs_album_29/photos/3_554836.jpg, though this has no turret gun.
One photograph in "Tanks of the World" by Chamberlain & Ellis shows a photograph of a Shi-Ki with a stubby hull gun, but this looks more like a Shi-Ki with a 57 in the hull and a (oversize) dummy gun on the turret.
Open to disagreement!
Fair enough!Paul,
This is one that bounced back and forth between 37 and 37* during the design. Muzzle velocity has a lot more to do with it than just the length, and IIRC the gun was on the borderline in my opinion. Based on this the 37* felt right.
