Documents
Errata
All > signs in the article "Left out in the sun too long" must be read as >=. Sorry about this.
FT276, "Genghis Khan Lives !"
The " Ude Artillery Screen " group has 4 crews and the " Ude Garrison " group has 2 crews.
FT278, "Toridasu" !
In SSR1, delete " Orchards are Palm Trees (G4.). "
FT290, "Picking Olives"
In the New Zealander OoB, delete the radio and 7-0 leader.
FT293, "Wild Men From Texas"
SSR 2 is to be rewritten as follows : "All buildings on board LFT7 are stone rubble ; moreover, this rubble is treated as Rout, Rally, and Ambush Terrain. All Orchards are Cactus Patch hexes (B14.7). Hammada hexes are Arid Debris (AD3.4)."
About rule AD4.1, the terrain types listed are treated as Woods for Rout determination (A10.51). However, a Trench *is* considered Rally Terrain (A10.61).
