LOCATION: Pg. 17, Ostroc OSR-2C (Michi) record sheet
THE ERROR: Left and right torsos have an incorrect amount of total armor. Front and rear combined is 30, but the max you can have is 28.
THE CORRECTION: Remove 2 points of armor from the rear for both left and right torsos, leaving each with 4. Add 4 points of armor to the center torso. (NOTE: this was the solution used on the designs created in MML and SSW)

LOCATION: p.6 assault mech table.
THE ERROR: lists CGR-1A9. Misery takes place in 3028, this mech is not available until 3034 according to the MUL. TRO 3039 states it "surprised AFFS forces in the War of 3039," which seems unlikely if it was seen fielded in 3028.
THE CORRECTION: I'm not familiar enough with Kurita mechs to replace it.

[Plinythemechwarrior]

LOCATION: p.11 Objectives #3 - Even the Odds

THE ERROR: this objective is for the Attacker [Kurita] only, but states that "for every Attacker [Kurita] unit the Defender [Dragoons] destroys after the trap is sprung" -> does not seem logical that the Kuritans are rewarded when they lose a mech (the title of the objective also IMO wouldn't make any sense).

THE CORRECTION: change to "For every Defender [Dragoons] unit the Attacker [Kurita] destroys after the trap is sprung".

[Plinythemechwarrior]

LOCATION: p.12 under Defender

THE ERROR: does not state where Defender deploys

THE CORRECTION: as per the other tracks, something like "Defender deploys first, within 4 hexes of the Defender's home map edge".

[Plinythemechwarrior]

LOCATION: p.12 under Optional Bonuses

THE ERROR: states "Blizzard: use Ice Storm rules." However, Blizzard and Ice Storm are separate weather conditions.

THE CORRECTION: change to "Ice Storm: use the Ice Storm rules" (as per scenario on p.13) or "Blizzard: use the Blizzard rules."

[Plinythemechwarrior]

LOCATION: p.14 under Optional Bonuses

THE ERROR: states "Blizzard: use Ice Storm rules." However, Blizzard and Ice Storm are separate weather conditions.

THE CORRECTION: change to "Ice Storm: use the Ice Storm rules" (as per scenario on p.13) or to "Blizzard: use Blizzard rules."

[Plinythemechwarrior]

LOCATION: p.13 under Game Setup

THE ERROR: does not state how to determine which team is at which map edge.

THE CORRECTION: select one team to choose their map edge, as per all previous scenarios, eg: p.12 "the Defender [Dragoons] may choose his home map edge". Most previous scenarios have allowed Dragoons to choose map edge, so it may be fair to allow Kurita to choose the map edge for this scenario.

[Plinythemechwarrior]

LOCATION: p.6 under Heavy Mechs for Wolf's Dragoons

THE ERROR: Thunderbolt is misspelt Thuderbolt

THE CORRECTION: spel it rite

[Plinythemechwarrior]

LOCATION: p.15 under Defender.

THE ERROR: does not explain how the reinforcements should be deployed; deployment of initial units is "anywhere on the map," which does not provide any guidance.

THE CORRECTION: I suggest that the reinforcement units can be deployed from any one edge, as in the Aftermath section it describes how reinforcements "flooded into the area."

[Plinythemechwarrior]

LOCATION: p.15 and 16 under Optional Bonuses

THE ERROR: states "Blizzard: use Ice Storm rules." However, Blizzard and Ice Storm are separate weather conditions.

THE CORRECTION: change to "Ice Storm: use the Ice Storm rules" (as per scenario on p.13) or "Blizzard: use the Blizzard rules."
