Errata - are they required for these items in FoGR?

[timmy1]

I have started this thread to capture all the things that the authors need to consider for a FoG:R Errata when they create it (hopefully soon). There are questions in other threads that people are welcome to add here should they so choose (no intend to compell). I would ask people to look at the other threads I have opened for fequently asked questions and for typos that are non-material - if (like me) you enjoy nit-picking but the nits don't impact how the game is actually played - and see if they better belong there.

I have also pulled one or two items from other threads that don't clearly indicate errata in the title (e.g. Wars of Religion Companion 1 Errata).

Early Tercio becoming a Late Tercio.

P32.

'If an early tercio ceases to have a shot base in each of the 4 horn positions...

*It functions thereafter for the remainder of the game as a later tercio. However, if it was initially deployed as a grand battle group ... it still counts as such if BROKEN, routed off table or destroyed.'

Why does it not count as a GBG if Fragmented?

Well, of course it does, one for the errata.

OTOH, the sentence is only explanatory. It clearly counts as a GBG anyway, because it started the game with more than 12 bases.

Richard is correct, I had posted this to the wrong thread. It is now in the correct thread. This can be deleted.

The Early Thirty Years' War German Catholic Allies allows GC option in addition to FC/TC. It is the only list in Companion 1 that allows this. What is that meant to represent? Two ICs make for an interesting game.

A cut and paste error, sadly. As the points values indicate.

Tim,

Let's try to keep separate threads for rules errata and list errata. This is the thread for rules errata isn't it?

Index Page 204, under Regimental gun markers there should be an additional reference to Page 117. (Mia Culpa)

-bit about 25mm scake and foot not being able to make it through artillery because of the 80mm depth...

Again, Mia Cupla. Because I was late submitting the final corrections to the index, the below (material) items did not make it to the final printed version.

One thing I missed from the index, to be added before 'Complex move' on Page 203.

'
Commander-in-Chief see C-in-C
'

There should be an additional reference under 'C-in -C' to page 40. It is a non-bold reference.

(By implication page 5)

Contents. Under BATTLE GROUPS. 'Other Miwed Formations' should read 'Other Mixed Formations'.

Not spotted by me.
