18.3 Example: Add “the” between “only” and “infantry” in line 3 of the example.

“When an AT attack is performed and after resolving the attack, if a hit is produced on an AFV the Penetration Chart must be checked, cross-referencing the type of AT gun which opened fire with the distance to the target.”
with
“If an AT attack results in a hit, the Penetration Chart must be checked to determine if the hit results in a step loss. Cross reference the type of AT gun with the distance to the target.”
18.3.2: Replace “AFVs” with “an AFV” in line 1 of paragraph 2.

If there is no option available, he must move using his on-foot MP to reach another friendly platoon in the same company.”
with
“If the platoon is eliminated and the officer survives (see hits on officers, chapter 7.4.3), the officer counter is immediately assigned to a platoon of the same company located in the same hex. If there is no platoon available, the officer counter remains in the hex and must move on foot during its next activation until it reaches another friendly platoon of the same company. At that point the officer is automatically assigned to the new platoon.” in the first paragraph.
19: Replace “Armor support occurs between assaulting infantry, MG, or motorized/mechanized mounted cavalry platoons (the same as for HtH) together with at least one AFV (or mounted mechanized platoon) and assaulted infantry, cavalry, or heavy weapon units (including motorized ones that are immediately dismounted).”
with
“An armor support assault occurs when platoons of infantry, MG (including dismounted motorized and mechanized infantry/MG platoons), or mounted cavalry (that is, the same platoons that may initiate HtH combat), along with at least one AFV platoon (or mounted mechanized platoon) conduct an assault against infantry, cavalry, heavy weapons, or motorized platoons (that must dismount when the assaulting platoons enter their hex).” in the first paragraph.
19: Delete the third paragraph:
“To make an assault with Armor Support the infantry or MG and AFV platoons must begin their movement in the same hex. If the attacking platoons belong to different companies, they have to attempt to coordinate in order to execute the assault with Armor Support.” These two sentences are redundant. They essentially repeat what is stated a few lines later in chapter 19 Step 1 of the rulebook.
19 Step1: Replace “platoon” with “platoon(s) in line 1.
19 Step 1: Delete “or mechanized unit” from line 1. This is redundant? Mounted mechanized units are AFVs.
19 Step 1: Delete “adjacent to the target hex of the assault,” from line 2.
19 Step1: Replace “infantry or MG platoons.” with “troops it is supporting.” in line 3.
19 Step 2: Replace step #2 with:
“The defender may decide to perform DF at this point or wait for the opponent to enter his hex.
If available to his platoons, the defender may direct AT fire against the assaulting AFV(s) and AP fire against the assaulting foot platoon(s). If a unit has both types, he must choose which to use.”
19 Step 4: Delete “In the case that infantry platoon, if” with “If” in line 1.
19 Step 4: Replace “armored assaulting” with “assaulting armored” in line 3.
19 Step 4: Replace “At this point, the assaulting player, decides to continue with the assault or suspend it, if suspended must mark the platoons as “Finished” where they are at the same time when it has been eliminated or forced to withdraw.”
with
“At this point, the assaulting player must decide to continue with the assault or suspend it. If an assault is suspended or aborted, the platoons must be marked as “Finished.” If the finished platoons are in the defender’s hex when the assault is suspended or aborted, the assaulting platoons must withdraw into an adjacent hex through the hex side they originally crossed to enter the assaulted hex or through either hex side adjacent to it.”
19 Step 5: Replace “Same procedure, just adding the assault factor from the armored platoon.”
with “Armor support follows the same assault resolution procedure as HtH combat but with the addition of the assault factor of the armor platoon(s).”
19 What happens if the assaulted hex contains ONE armored platoon (if it contains more, an armored-supported assault cannot be performed)?:
Replace “their” with “the defending” in line 1 of paragraph 1.
The second paragraph makes reference to the defending armor platoon being eliminated prior to the assault. How can the defending armor platoon be eliminated during the run up to the assault but prior to the assault resolution?
Delete “and neither is the defender,” from line 1 of paragraph 2.
Delete the last sentence from paragraph 2.
Replace “defender” with “defending” in line 1 of paragraph 3.
Delete “; in both cases” from line 2 of paragraph 3.
Add “defending” between “the” and “armored” in line 2 of paragraph 3.

19 Example: Replace “republicans” with “Republican” twice in lines 2 and 3 of paragraph 1 in the left-hand column of page 36.
19 Example: Replace “republicans” with “Republican” in line 1 of paragraph 2 in the left-hand column of page 36.
19 Example: Replace “an” with “a” in line 2 of paragraph 2 in the left-hand column of page 36.
19 Example: Replace “A die is” with “2D6 are” in line 3 of paragraph 2 in the left-hand column of page 36.
19 Example: Replace “the dice are rolled and the result is a 8” with “the dice roll results in an 8” in line 7 of paragraph 2 in the left-hand column of page 36.
19 Example: Replace “Hand-to-Hand Combat Chart” with “Close Assault Chart” in line 3 of the last paragraph in the example on page 36.
20: Replace “machine guns, or cavalry platoons (that is, the same types of platoons that can initiate a HtH assault)” with “MG, or dismounted cavalry/motorized/mechanized” <wbr />in line 1/2 of paragraph 1.
20 Step 2: Replace “FF AP” with “AP FF” in line 1.
20: Replace “Hand-to-Hand Combat Chart” with “Close Assault Chart” in the first line on page 37.
20: Replace “crosses” with “cross references” in line 4 of the left-hand column at the top of page 37.
20 Example: Replace “leader” with “officer” in line 6 of the example on page 37. In the name of consistency.
20 Example: Replace “3 of each platoon but since they do not have reaction markers their FF is halved, a platoon with FF of 3 should divide it into 2, will have an FF of 2 when rounding up 1.5”
with
“both platoons have an AP FF of 3 but each is halved for not being marked for reaction and rounded up individually” in lines 7-9 of the example on page 37.
20 Example: Replace “nationalist of” with “Nationalist AFV platoons is” in line. 11 of the example on page 37.
20 Example: Replace “(Assault charts), the” with “. The” in line 11 of the example on page 37.
20 Example: Replace “in the Odds Chart, the attacker’s value (8) by the defender’s value (6).” with “the attacker’s value (8) with the defender’s value (6) on the Odds Chart.” in the last line of the example on page 37.
21: Rule 21 states that AFVs may assault “mechanized units, transports, NAFV, or motorized ones” (in line 3 of paragraph 1). However, the Armored Assault column on the assault chart on page 30 does not include transports, mechanized units, or NAFV. Which is correct?
21 Step 2: Replace “has performed an action during its impulse/turn and is marked as completed,” with “is marked as “Finished”” in lines 2/3.
21 Step 2: Replace “always” with “still” in line 4.
22 Step 2: Replace “will occur ” with “may occur even” in line 4.
21 Step 2: Replace “impulse/turn” with “activation” in line 5.

21 Step 2: Replace “make” with “conduct” in line 7.
21 Step 2: Delete “complete the pre-assault check and” from the last line. An Armor Assault does not require a pre-assault check.
21 Step 4: Replace “perform” with “resolve” in line 4.
21 Step 4: Add a period to the end of line 4. Capitalize “once” in line 5.
21 Step 5. Assault resolution: Replace “HtH chart” with “Close Assault Chart” in line 3.
21 Step 5: Replace “crosses” with “cross references” in line 6.
21 Step 5: Replace “-1 to 1D6” with “a -1 modifier to the 1D6 roll” in line 8. Also, this modifier is not listed on the Assault Modifiers chart.
21 What happens if the Assaulted hex contains ONE (if it contains more, an armored assault cannot be performed) armored platoon?
Replace “Surviving DF assaulting platoons” with “Assaulting platoons that survive the DF” in line 1 of paragraph 2.
