I started a document that indicates all the corrections I know with the intention of creating a sticker sheet such that the corrections could be "stickered" over top of the errors in the Campaign Book. However, I didn't have the graphical expertise to create all the images required and it sits half complete. If you'd like the document, send me a private message with your e-mail address and I'll forward the document and images I have.


That's what I did. Used mailing labels and stuck them on the pages so I have the ready reference in the right spot. Good idea if I don't say so myself.
Cool


Any chance of DoW putting all the errata on a printable sheet we could download?
Please

Here is my compilation of Current Errata for CB#!:

Fort Eban-Emael scenario clarifications

Quote:

Just some considerations about this scenario:
-Bunkers are not really bunkers; they represent artillery turrets, so nobody can use them as bunkers.
-Turrets do block LOS.
-Turrets are objectives only for the Axis player.
-For the Allies, It is not possible to bring a tank reinforcement unit onto the top of the fort.
-No units can exit the top of the fort, so a flag will mean a figure loss if there is no retreat path.
-No reserve unit reinforcement for the Axis player as their baseline is impassable terrain.
-All hexes inside the hills are at the same level (height) as the hills since hills represent the walls of the fort, and fortress hexes are also effectively at the same level.

Printing Errata for ALL the pages:

Quote:

Rules misprint
p.46 - Heavy Tank Track
The example is wrong - the title should be "The Crossing of the Meuse" and the text should read "The Axis player managed to destroy 4 Heavy Tank units. As a consequence, he receives 3 additional Victory Points."

Campaign misprints
Page 16 - Axis Special Reserve Roll
"When rolled before the Breakout" amend to read "When rolled in the Breakout".

p.19 - Flanking Caen
The Axis Grand Campaign box should read "If you win the Campaign" instead of "If you win the Campaign after Hill 112".

p.25 - If the Axis win the campaign after Operation Cobra, the Grand Campaign should move on to 'Falaise' not 'Early Falaise'.

pp.66-67 - The Crossing of the Meuse
The green arrow from Camouflaged in Monthermé to De Gaulle to the Rescue should be red.

p.68 - The Crossing of the Meuse
The box "Camouflaged in Monthermé" should read "Play De Gaulle to the Rescue next" instead of "Play Breakout at Sedan next".

p.81 - Strategic Reserve Pool
(cosmetic) The Reserve token is a French one while it should be a Russian one.

Setup misprints
p. 20 - Securing the Flank
Setup should mention 3 sandbags instead of 2.

p.44 - Bodange
(cosmetic) Setup should mention 1 Roadblock instead of Abattis.

p.59 - Battle of the Lys
Setup should mention 8 sandbags instead of 1.

p.89 - Smolensk
(cosmetic) The US medal should be a Russian medal.

p.99 - Velikaya Bridgehead
Duplicated town hex in the setup.

p.100 - Ingermanland
Setup should mention Abattis.

p.101 - Luga bridges
The forked railroad tile is not the good one in the setup.

p.102 - Ivanovskoye Bridgehead
Setup mentions 5x curved roads, but there's only one on the map.
Setup does not mention any roads, while there are 5 of them on the map.

That's actually a smaller list of mistakes than I thought it would be based on initial complaints...and hopfully the CB#2 errata is even smaller! Very Happy By the time CB#4 comes out (here's hoping) there won't be any mistakes at all. Razz Cool

There may be more even if you survey this thread, which I would DO CAREFULLY if I was composing a document. I just have the answers for the ITEMS I personally researched listed here. So it is not as simple as it seems. I am sure there were more questions related to how to play certain scenarios.

Here is some more stuff I found today...

In fact, the Allied green arrow between "Camouflaged in Monthermé" and "De Gaulle to the Rescue" should be red.
The German green and red arrow are not reversed however.

(It is also written in the "Camouflaged in Monthermé" box that if Allies win you must go to "Breakout at Sedan".)
The idea is that Germans have to cross the Meuse to advance. If they do not cross the river, their attack cannot lead to victory. That was a key point of the German attack.

It has been brought to my attention that the Flanking Caen campaign had an omission in the final editing. It is possible for the Allies to win Withdrawal from Hill 112 (effectively ending the campaign) yet lose the campaign. This means that the Axis has won the campaign but it's not clear where the Grand Campaign goes after this.

The Axis Campaign box should read - "If you win the Campaign after Withdrawal from Hill 112 or Hill 112"
The Grand Campaign would move to The Breakout if the Axis wins the campaign regardless of the scenario.


Flanking Caen Campaign - Errata Sat, 21 March 2009 13:58
Somehow this got overlooked in the final edit (it happens).
Fortunately it's a simple fix.
The end Axis campaign box should read....
"If you win the Campaign after Withdrawal from Hill 112 or Hill 112"

Basically it would've covered off the possible ending of the Allies winning Withdrawal from Hill 112 but end up losing the Campaign.

Didn't see this one covered:

In "The Breakout" campaign, which version of 'Counter-Attack on Mortain' is used?

The AIr Pack version is 6 VP. The base game version is 4 VP.

As fans of the game we can always hope that they will reprint the book but DoW has not said anything about plans to do this. They don't usually tell us what their plans are very far in advance, but if they decide to reprint the book I'm sure lots of people will be happy to get a copy! Cool

If you look at p. 24 or p.25 in CB#1 you will see directly adjacent to the scenario title "Counter-Attack on Mortain" two page numbers listed. One page number is for the Original Memoir'44 Owners Manual and the other is for the Air Pack Instruction Manual. What I gather from this, is that is up to the folks playing the scenarios to decide which one they want to use as both possibilities are listed. You see the same situation on these same pages for the listing for "Operation Cobra".

You see this same sitution repeated in Barbarossa Center on CB#1 ps.84-86.
So again I think that DOW is just giving you alternatives, should you decide to use Air rules. Will it make a difference in the final outcome? Possibly, but isn't it about playing, experimenting and having fun.

playing and having fun, of course.

Having both pages and locations listed was what prompted the question.

Just wanted to know if there was a right answer.

Mad It's nice to publish corrections but what about the rest of us, those who can't get the first Campaign book at all? Pretty frustrating. It should be available online if it's not going to be in print again.

Yep, and it's only $15 for an amazing addition to the game system with tons of new scenarios and really fun campaigns!! You can find it over here:

https://www.daysofwonder.com/en/buy/

Just find the Memoir '44 Game System and look for "Campaign Book Vol. 1 (PDF)". Good luck and enjoy!
