I am currently setting this up and have some trouble understanding the German setup area which is defined as follows:

Set up on/between hexrows G and AA on board 32 in hexes numbered greater or equal to 6 and/or on board 67.

Please have a look at the following screenshot. Did I get the setup area right (delineated with a black dotted line)?

Edit 4. Oct. 2017:
The above setup area is wrong. It should be as below.

It's been a while, but I thought it looked something like this. Scroll down and click on WO12 spread. FWIW, I believe your German setup area is correct. The Soviet entry points in your image are not clear, however.

Seems that I was in doubt on what I got right and at the same time have mixed up east and west, which I did not notice at all. Just as a good 6+1 should do... :oops:

Thanks for your help, folks!

It's a good scenario you won't regret spending time on the (reasonably complex) setup.

In fact, I am looking forward to this one. I like scenarios with Pillboxes and Trenches to build little castles...

Resurrecting this old thread.

On my scenario card the German setup instructions are:

on/between hexrows G and AA: on board 32 in hexes numbered greater or equal to 6 and/or on board 67.

The nuance being the colon after AA. To me this says G->AA on both boards, with additional restrictions on board 32. The discussion here seems to disagree -- I would welcome further insight -- thanks.

I looked for errata at MMP for this scenario but came up empty.

I had overlooked the colon.

I think you make a good case for the entire setup area being bounded by the G-AA hexrows, and further circumscribed by the restrictions placed on board 32.

If the colon is deliberate, as I (now) suspect it is, your interpretation makes the most sense. And if so, good catch.

I agree.

I first did this wrong in my original setup as well (first post has been edited to point this out). It should be as below:

This is a very good scenario by the way. Enjoyed playing this one a lot!
