It would be nice to have an updated errata sheet and maybe some FAQs thrown in.  I like the idea of a rules compendium, with advanced rules too. 

Definitely need some official "errata" to allow AT guns to be tranported by Trucks and Halftracks., and make an exception for 88 flak gun, pertaining to a squads ability to move an AT gun one hex. 88 flak gun should NOT be allowed to be moved, except by transport truck or Halftrack only.

.

Would be nice to finally get those three erratad cards from the base set corrected in the form of updated cards too (Go to Ground, camouflage and yet another one...)

Sign me up, I totally agree!

Well based on a response to a question I submitted to FFG looking for a clarification on LOS rules out of Balka hexes, it would appear that an update to the FAQ IS on the agenda...

"Greetings,

It is meant to allow you to fire from the entrance hex normally.  The exception would be firing across other balka hexes.

That will be in the next FAQ.

FFG"

There is talk about a next FAQ? WoW.

Seriously though, the great scenarios in this game are very fun, and its a great game. Therefor its just  lame that the games lacks FAQ and support .

I also agree!!! I love this game and hate how many issues come up all the time during it...

The cost on the elite reinforcement card in the British reinforcement deck is incorrect. It should read 2 + X instead of just X. Otherwise, you get a British squad with four regualrs for 0 command points.

Is that in the current Errata?

FFG, Please show 'some' respect for those that keep you employed, by supporting your company, thru the purchase of your products. 

Signed,

Hopeful customer ... (tho, I'm not holding my breath)

I do agree that the card is strange indeed. And espesially strange is that you get four regulars for 0 command. However with 2+X gives you 6command cost for a full elite unit, and two elites would make 4.  Both a bit harsh. So 1+X would be better I think. But even then, I dont see you choosing 4 elites unless you have tons of command which you cannot spend.

Absolutely! Agreed; updated official errata for TIDE OF IRON, including FURY OF THE BEAR, from FFG is long overdue...and for basic, authentic product/customer support.

As a long term supporter of TOI I am now starting to loose faith in the company. Surely by now they should have replied to this thread. The FOTB expansion has a lot of errors and I am dissappointed that it has been released without it seems, any proof reading and certainly a lack of playtesting.

Prelude To Breakout seems so one sided it could possibly be considered a newbee scenario where you show someone the basics of the game with them certainly winning to gain confidence. OK if this wasn't the third expansion, where all that was covered in the base game.

Unless FFG pull their finger out and get down to correcting all the mistakes I certainly won't be buying another expansion.

FFG please take a look at how GMT run their business, you could learn a lot from them.

One dissatisfied longterm customer.

I am of the mind that the publised version of Prelude to breakout is not the version that the scenario designers made. As it seems to me that there are command objectives missing and the victory conditions are easily met by round 4.  But again this should have been picked up in editing and play testing.

It isnt that hard to find mistakes in rules and sceanrio set ups. All you have to do is give the game to a number of people who didnt have a hand in the writing of the rules and sceanrios and see if they can understand and set up without any help.  Same with play testing.

I have tried to gain an understanding from FFG with some of the rules as they seem defy logic (some of these go back to the base game, and havent been picked up in the errata that is already out) But I hae only been given the answer that they are unsure of the theory behindthem, this is coming from Rob Kouba who seems to have taken the rains of ToI now as he has done the last 2 expansions. This worries me alot!! when other designers of other games seem to include notes in the rules to why the rules are the way they are.

 Sorry for necro-posting, but TOI really needs an updated errata sheet — particularly for Fury of The Bear. Show us some love FFG!

Not necessarily. Perhaps it is intended like that. If you want elites you have to pay for them, but the card will give you 4 REGULARS for free. None of the other cards will give you ELITE reinforcements and you can influence the cost yourself depending on how many elites you take. If you are willing to settle for regulars only, then you get a bargain…
