ABTF ERRATA and Q&A

Q. Is hexside R20/R21 a rowhouse hexside (R1.12)?

A. No.

Q. Does the pillar artwork (and the row-house hexsides) block LOS from units on the bridge to units below the level of the bridge (e.g., does a unit on the bridge in hex R19 have clear LOS to unit at level 0 in hex Q18)?

A. Yes(no).

R1.22 Example, line 4: Change "(by 2.4)" to "(by 1.22)"

R9.S1 cm Initial German OB: the third group sets up less than or equal to 3 hexes from hex R22 not 3 hexes or more and the Turn 1 reinforcements enter on hex RO, not S1.

ABTF1 The Prize: In the British OB under the Headquarters Defense Platoon and Troop B, Royal Engineers, add "on/east of hexrow G" after "set up" and before "~ 3 hexes from hex 16".

ABTF8 God Save The King!: The first four "?" in the British OB and the first two "?" in the German OB should be DC, i.e., the British should get four DC and twelve "?" and the German Group 1 should get two DC and zero "?".

ABTF8 SSR 1: Hex F20 starts ablaze, not hex F21.

ABTF8 SSR 2: There should be no rubble in bex M15. Hex M15 should contain shellholes.

ABtF Map, Turn Record Track: The circled number in the Turn 5 block should be a circled 5, not a circled 6.

ABtF Divider: All references on the retained unit boxes that are listed as "R9.071" should be "R9.6071".

Add note B to the 9.619 Fortification Purchase Table:"B Only the British may purchase this type of Fortification.".

R9.6053
Situation: 19AM ends. A German truck, carrying a crew and towing a 150 INF Gun, in motion, in hex U13 of BRITISH-controlled Block K. Germans control blocks O and P. Initially, the GUN is automatically unhooked, and the crew unloads. Now, what happens during R9.6053? Is the GUN, a "non-dm GUN", simply abandoned in Block K, in U13, with the Truck and crew escaping? Is the gun "freely hooked up", and "escaped" along with the truck and crew to either German controlled block, to be setup HIP anywhere in the block it is placed in, for 19PM? Does it "escape", but must setup within 2 hexes of U13?
A. The Gun may freely hook-up and escape with the truck (and loaded crew). (R9.6053 is confusing and might read better if the EXC were moved 3 words to the right so it is after "at scenario end".)

R9.6053
If a captured truck has to be turned into a wreck where does on the mapboard does it go? Step R9.6143 is after step R9.6053 when the truck was retained to the nearest setup area (in this case Block H). So..Is the wreck generated from a captured unarmed vehicle in step R9.6143 of the ABtF Refit Phase placed in.
1) The hex it occupied at the end of the previous CG Date?
2) Any hex of the Setup Area that it was retained to in step R9.6053?
3) Any eligible (for the vehicle to enter/setup-in) hex of the Setup Area that it was retained to in step R9.6053?
4) Somewhere else?
A. 3) Any eligible (for the vehicle to enter/setup-in) hex of the Setup Area that it was retained to in step R9.6053. {2}
