Hi Everyone,
I apologise if this has been raised before, but I was wondering what the thoughts are regarding the Combat Formation Cost Tables in 1SW, 2SW and Interstellar Operations, as regards Aerospace Wings and Artillery Battalions (batteries).
Firstly in 1SW and 2SW books, plus the errata for IO its stated that newly built Aerospace wings (typically 20-18 strength or half a typical battalion) cost 8/12/15 RPs (plus Assault Wings, but I'm assuming this is Dropships), whereas a whole BM Regt (108 strength) for the same weight class is double this cost amount. I would have thought this should maybe Aerospace Regiment (54 strength). What do others think?
Is it a typo for regt? - although ASFs are mentioned in the rules as wings (I know DCMS and CCAF Wings are not the same as AFFS, SL and mercenary Wings)
Also 1SW and 2SW give the artillery as batteries - cost 5 RPs - I wouldve thought these were typos for battalion, and given that the cost is about a 1/3 of a medium AFV regt its seems right to assume its a battalion.
Should I post these queries on the IO/1SW/2SW errata forum pages?
