setup question on S51 Enter the Young

[thedrake]

Setting up this scenario to play and believe the setup instructions are incorrect.

Germans listed as setting up south/west of sQ10-sQ7-sZ6-sGG6 road,with Americans setting up north/east of same road;
shouldnt it be the other way around???? (US sets up south/west of road,Germans set up north/east of road?)

If the Americans set up as listed they will occupy both needed Victory hexes on Turn 1--dont think that is the intention of the scenario;or am I wrong in this?

Please let me know as am hoping to play this scenario tomorrow solo.

Thx,
Mark

Yes, there's an error on the card. The printed North arrow is actually pointing South, not north.

The American player must occupy either one or both of hexes sH4 or rP5 with a Good Order unit at game end to win the scenario. Any other result and the German player wins the scenario.

Reverse the north arrow (make sure you don’t rotate the boards, just the north arrow)

The Germans Set up on board s and r south/west of the sQ10-sQ7-sZ6-sGG6 road.

I am glad someone asked the question. I had read the setup and was very confused. Marked it down to me not being the brightest bulb and played another scenario instead -- SSTK
