RACE FOR TUNIS – errata and modifications

2.1 The Game Map/2.2 Charts and Tables

The symbol for sand in the TEC is not the same as the
sand representation on the map.
Terrain in effect for movement is the most restrictive in
the hex; terrain in effect for combat is the most
favourable in the hex for the defender.
On the TEC, delete the ‘+’ sign for secondary roads and
single railways. Also, delete the +1 combat die roll
modifier for woods.
There is no Air Interdiction Box on the map.
2.3 The Playing Pieces/Set-up Table
OoB corrections
Allies
HQs: 11 Bde and 36 Bde counters are green; they
should be red as displayed on the Set up Table.
A/P, B/P and C/P: on the Set up Table are displayed as
green counters; they are in fact red, which is correct.
Axis
On the OoB Chart:
1CM/XC (0-1-5) should be yellow.
2CM/XC (0-1-5) should be yellow.
1CA/XC (0-1-8) should be yellow.
2/136/XC (1-1-7) should be yellow.
11/2a/Prov (0-1-5) should be grey.
There are two 7/7/10 Pz (3-3-10) armoured companies
listed; one in Tunis at start, and one is listed on the
Convoy row. There is an 8/7/10Pz (5-4-10) armoured
company not listed anywhere. Both companies should
be set up on the Convoy row.
The German I/86/10Pz and II/86/10Pz (5-6-11)
motorised infantry battalions have no stacking value
displayed; they should have a stacking value of 3,
including when reduced.
The German 49(-)/10Pz (3-3-10) should have wheels
under the type symbol on the reverse, as should the
motorized engineer remnant (1-1-10).
The Italian 101/S (1-2-8) artillery battalion should have
a stacking value of 1 out of battery.
In the Airlift reinforcement row there is a 2-2-12
motorcycle detachment listed; the 10/10Pz (5-5-12)
motorcycle battalion is not listed anywhere. Set up the
5-5-12 in the airlift row on its reverse 3-3-12 side. A
10/10Pz (2-1-12) detachment is on the map; this unit
can be recombined with the 3-3-12 to create the 5-5-12.
Amongst the units set up in hex 1210 is shown the
Support Marker for the Italian 2CM (0-1-5) artillery
unit, not the unit itself.
In this group is listed the 3/136/XC (1-1-7) SPAT
company; it is also listed as a Convoy unit. Remove
this unit from the game.
There is no set up information for 3+/91/S (1-1-4)
infantry company; set up with the Superga divisional
HQ unit.
Players may make as many remnant counters as
required; the detachment counters are limited to those
available.
References to the East Edge and West Edge of the game
map are inconsistent. It should always be interpreted
that the West Edge is friendly to the Allies and the East
Edge to the Axis, and the relevant edge derived there
from.
4.23 (optional rule is recommended) See case 4.27
(addition).
4.27 (addition) Motorized infantry may be moved as
non-motorized infantry with a movement allowance of
5. As in case 4.23, motorized infantry may not in these
circumstances move again as a motorized unit until a
path of hexes free of Enemy units or Enemy ZOC can
be traced from the unit to a Friendly map edge
traversable by motorized movement. Players may find
it useful to create markers to signify this.
4.31 (change) On Game Turns preceded by a Game
Turn in which the weather was Rain, a die roll of 1-3
results in Clear, a die roll of 4-5 results in Cloudy, and a
die roll of 6 results in Rain.
9.24 b. (clarification) In these circumstances the
movement point cost for crossing a major river hex side
is two additional (rather than four), and for a minor
river hex side is one additional (rather than two).
10.14 (change) An Allied unit can trace supply directly
to any map edge hex adjacent to an Allied supply source
irrespective of the presence of roads.
10.31 (clarification) In order to place or retain units in
reserve a motorized movement Supply Point must be
expended.
10.42 (clarification) This does not allow motorized
units to move into or across prohibited terrain
(exceptions: cases 4.23 and 4.27).
10.43 (change) Units retain fractional combat strengths.
11.11 (correction) No Jewish labour can be used during
Game Turn 1 of Scenario 1.
11.12 (clarification) The additional defence strength of Detachments C & D are part of 10B for activation.
1 is the only effect of Jewish labour fortifications.
18.11 (correction) There are twelve Game Turns.
13.34 (addition) The Allied player may not receive
airborne reinforcements on Cloudy or Rain Game
Turns.
13.42 (change) On a die-roll of 4-6 Free French units’ Incorporating notes previously available on the
movement allowances are halved, they may not enter an internet.
Enemy ZOC and they may not attack unless required to
T.R. Alanthwaite – 1.1 – April 2016
do so as a result of being unable to withdraw from an
Enemy ZOC.
13.62 (clarification) The Brandenburger recall must be
successful for the German player to forfeit the loss level
penalty referred to.
13.71 (correction) The reference to Commando
Supremo should be case 15.3.
14.21 (addition) Unsupplied Allied units on or east of
the 1600 hex row do not prevent a German Strategic
Victory, unless those units are in Tunis and/or Bizerte.
15.5 (correction) Change all references to defence
strength points. Change Tunis airfield to 5 defence
strength points.
15.6 (addition) A player is entitled to enquire whether
there is an Enemy ZOC projected into a hex.
16.2 (addition) Units arriving as Convoy reinforcements
spend half their movement allowance (rounded up) to
land. They require supply, including the expenditure of
Supply Points, for the Game Turn they arrive.
18.0 (clarification) Artillery units can start a scenario
set up In Battery and can place FPF markers as normal
at no cost to the initial Supply Point totals.
Axis units cannot be set up in Reserve in Scenario 1.
Group Koch are the units that are based around
Massicault and Medjez el Bab (two groups); per case
13.71, only units from Group Koch can move on Game
Turn 1 unless the Allies attack units in any other
formation. Group Koch units that move on Game Turn
1 can only move into a hex that is adjacent to the
Medjerda River or any hex south of the Medjerda River.
To move the mechanised units of Group Koch on Game
Turn 1 requires the expenditure of one Supply Point.
To attack on Game Turn 1 requires the expenditure of
one Supply Point. Group Koch ceases to exist as a
formation after Game Turn 1.
Axis formations after Game Turn 1 are:
XC Corps 10 Panzer 1st Superga Von Broich
XC units 10 Pz units S units 10B units
SM units
Dets A & B
Dets C & D
Prov
Detachments A & B are part of SM for activation.
