p30, Battle of Tukayyid Supplemental

"as well as Combined Arms counters for use with the Battlefield Support: Combined Arms rules."
change to
"as well as a Combined Arms worksheet for use with the Battlefield Support: Combined Arms rules."

[Xotl]

The initial errata release for BoT is out.  Please note that, as I usually do, this initial version is marked as a PRE version and may change between here and the final release on the website.

Also note that the errata is based on the print version.  The current PDF already has many of these errors fixed.

[ShroudedSciuridae]

p. 182, Timeline
"Ambush at the Dinju Pass" is listed. No such scenario exists in the 2020 releases, but the 1994 release did have a scenario by that name.

p. 183, Timeline
"ComStar Counterattack" same issue.

Lessons of War, Broken Landing, Swimming to Victory, and Flower Power are not on the Timeline.

Including the Strategic BattleForce scenarios from the Supplemental on the timeline would also be useful, and perhaps sell more product.

[nckestrel]

p37, Pushback Track.
special Rules
replace text to read "The following rules are in effect for this track:"
and add
"Track End
  This track ends after the End Phase of Turn 8 (6 if using Alpha Strike rules)."

[nckestrel]

p45, after 299th Division
add
"Stiff Spine: An opponent cannot use the Combat Intuition Special Pilot Ability, or the Overrun Combat or Forcing the Initiative SCAs against this force."

pg 146

Problem: "they were forced to construct defensive positions in the open days of the battle"

Fix: Change open to opening

[Dark_Falcon]

PDF

p. 33, Heavy 'Mechs
Add
CRD-3R Crusader
CRD-2R Crusader (with rare note)

The same page would also seem to be where the GLN-3N Guillotine should be listed.  The previous Tukayyid book listed the Guillotine as a mech in use by the ComGuards, even assigning it as the mech of the commander of the 323rd Division.

[nckestrel]

P. 127, WarChest, Options
"Artillery Strikes (Defender only)"
change to
"Artillery Strikers (Attacker only)"

"Shedding Honor (Attacker only)"
change to
"Shedding Honor (Defender only)"

[nckestrel]

p17, Salvage note
"Note: The Salvage rule is included here as part of general Warchest rules in Alpha Strike play. As noted above, however,
Salvage rules are not used in Chaos Campaign: Tukayyid play as the in-universe timeframe is too short for salvaged units to
generally be returned to action, especially with the differences between ComStar and Clan technology."
change to
"Note: For the Battle of Tukayyid, all units are recovered by their original owner in all tracks."

p64 Objectives

"Red Sky at Night (Attacker only): No more than 25% of the Defender’s units moves within 3 hexes (TW) or 6” (AS) of the Defender’s home edge . [200]"

PDF

p. 103, Com Guards 7th Army is the combatant, but the unit logo shown (red shield) belongs to the 10th Army (which did not participate in the Nova Cat campaign).

The correct logo for the 7th is the ivory shield, see p. 178

[nckestrel]

p46, Jaguar Grenadiers
after Assault Operations, add (see p.136)

[nckestrel]

The same page would also seem to be where the GLN-3N Guillotine should be listed.  The previous Tukayyid book listed the Guillotine as a mech in use by the ComGuards, even assigning it as the mech of the commander of the 323rd Division.

Yeah, just noticed the Guillotine missing as well. Going by most Comstar RATs it should be a common heavy for the Com Guard.

Also, in the JF section, shouldn’t the Turkina be listed as an option for the Falcons to use?

PDF first printing but not addressed in 2.0 Errata
Page 169

Replace "Adept VII Epsilon Alice Pollworths" with
"Adept VII Epsilon Alice Pollworth"

Reason: I think you meant Alice Pollworth who a decade later (FM:ComStar p. 31) had risen to Demi-Precentor VIII of the Crazy Players Ill-eta, 31st Division (The Lost Boys IV-theta)


Also, PDF copies on CGL store are still 1st printing.

[nckestrel]

p115
"the Falcon Khans kept all Galaxies' Eyrie and Solahma Clusters"
"the Falcon Khans kept all Galaxies' Solahma and the Jade Falcon Eyrie Cluster"

p176, Clan Jade Falcon
From Reserves, remove Peregrine Eyrie Cluster and Gyrfalcon Eyrie Cluster.

[nckestrel]

p74, Family
"Short range"
change to
"six hexes (AS: 6")"

PDF 2nd Printing & Supplemental

BoT p22 & Supp p12

Trebuchet missing in list of available BattleMechs, but present in RATs.

[BlackLanner05]

PDF 2nd Printing & Supplemental

BoT p22 & Supp p12

Trebuchet missing in list of available BattleMechs, but present in RATs.

Centurion CN9-A is also listed twice in that Medium list for Comstar. Therefore delete one and add the Treb.


Xotl: Cutoff for corrections applied to the third printing is here.  Everything after this post has not yet been corrected.

[Bagheera777]

Original Printing

Pg. 122 & 123

Olalla and Humptulips Track Tables, Roll 5 is "Withdrawal".

Roll 5 should be "Retreat".

[Bagheera777]

Original Printing

Pg. 38, Recon

Objectives: "Escape (Attacker only): At least 50% of the Attacker’s force must
survive and exit their home edge after 8 turns. [100]"

Should be "Escape (Attacker only): At least 50% of the Attacker’s force must
survive or have exited their home edge after 8 turns. [100]"

The "Track End" special rule says the track ends after 8 turns. It is impossible for the Attacker to retreat units AFTER the game is over.

[Jmlee236]

Corrected 2nd Printing

Page 125. Under Game Setup, at the end of the paragraph, should be the following statement: "The Clan side is always the Attacker in this track; the Comstar side is the Defender."

Page 127. Under Game Setup, at the end of the paragraph, should be the following statement: "The Clan side is always the Attacker in this track; the Comstar side is the Defender."

[nckestrel]

p27, Phalanx Star, Bonus Abilities
replace with:
"The Phalanx Star formation receives the equivalent of a Float Like A Butterfly Special Pilot Ability (see p. 96, ASCE or p. 117, Empire Alone) as a level of the number of units in the formation at Setup plus two. So a Star of 5 ‘Mechs in a Phalanx Star receives a 7-point Float Like A Butterfly Special Pilot Ability Special Ability. It is useable by any unit in the Phalanx Star, rather than limited to any single unit.
This bonus ability may be stacked with a Float Like A Butterfly SPA assigned to one or more of the Phalanx Star's member units. But if this is done, the maximum number of rerolls
a Phalanx Star unit may attempt for the duration of the scenario—between both the pilot’s ability and that provided by this formation bonus—is 4.

[nckestrel]

p136, Hold the Line
add after 282nd Division's Force Building Rules
"Hold The Line: Units in this command get an additional +1 target number modifier for attacks made against them while they are in partial cover or hull-down (see TO:AR p19 or AS:CE p.38)." 

[Xotl]

Errata for the third printing has been uploaded to the main website.  I'm checking into getting a fresh copy of the book uploaded in PDF to the usual places.

Page 12, Light 'Mechs: Jenner F is missing from the availability table

Page 162, Battle History: "As the -2Ht was primarily an Elemental hunter, it was assigned to special Level IIs that had trained extensively in anti-infantry and simulated battle armor tactics. These Level IIs consisted of three Shadow Hawk -2Ht and three Jenner -F Battle Mechs..."
