Re: Corrected Version of Caesars Camp
Hi team
After a chat with the PSC Author I’ve picked up some amendments that are rather important:
1. Germans can get a FO.
2. Brits can get Engineers. Given the Germans can access wire, mines and Roadblocks and the Brits are attacking it only seems appropriate
Either the usual teams (mine or wire clearing or Demolition) or an Engineer Section.
3. Scenario 3 can be achieved by reducing the German Morale to 4 or less OR as per the usual ‘Blitzkrieg Scenario’ victory conditions (as per the 1940s handbook).
If I come across any other titbits I’ll post here.
Cheers
Scott

OK errata feedback compiled and on its way to Rich.
Only non simple part is explaining Victory conditions for Scenario 3

Re: Corrected Version of Caesars Camp
I have another one for you TT.
The positioning of the off-table MGs on Table 3 seem to be a bit odd. North and south according to the campaign map are the two short edges, with North being the German baseline and South being the British baseline. There isn't a compass point on the map.
The free off-table MG (representing French fire) is placed on the North side and the conditional one (the German one) is placed behind the British lines on the South side. Presumably this is wrong?

Re: Corrected Version of Caesars Camp
Discussed that one with Rich he said the North has changed on that Map. I said it might confuse people
I also suggested a compass on all maps .....

Re: Corrected Version of Caesars Camp
As you know it doesn't take much to confuse me TT..... It might have been easier to use East and West (of the Route Nationale) rather than change North on the map.
So is the long edge on top of the page 'North'?
Also, how far up the edge can the off table MGs be placed?

Re: Corrected Version of Caesars Camp
A friend and I are looking to start this psc campaign later this week and trying to sort a few things, given what's been mentioned.
1) Why does the psc mention the 5cm Mortar for the Germans p.20, but not appear in the core platoon or support options list? I checked the 1940 HB, p.88 - 89, and the mortar doesn't appear.
2) Status of acquiring an updated PDF file of this psc? I downloaded today, no change to the original.
