Ardennes 44 4th Edition Upgrade Kit (Exp.) (engl.)

Beschreibung

This update kit is for players who would like to update their existing game of Ardennes ’44 to the 4th Edition. It is not a complete game and ownership of the map and counters of the 3rd Edition is necessary to play.

Besides a number of clarifications, the following changes were made to this edition:

12.2: Units using Strategic Movement may not enter a vacant, but enemy controlled Town or City hex (23.3.4).
13.3: Artillery Reinforcements now arrive on their Ready side.
16.4.2: Players now place 3-step units in the Remnant Display instead of the Eliminated Box.
22.6: Army/Corps Identification can be ignored for Artillery Defensive Support.
23.3.4: Control of hexes defined.
25.2.3: How an eliminated 3-step unit returns to play was clarified.
27.3.1: The Movement restriction of British units changed to allow them to enter two of the Liège hexes.
27.3.2: The British 29th Armoured Brigade and the 4 AGRA are now released earlier.
27.3.5: Many of the British units must now move to the Antwerp Box on Turn 24.
28.2: Clear Weather was extended into Turns 23 and 24.
32.3: Fuel dump markers are now removed on Turn 7 instead of Turn 6.
35: Meuse River Bridges Optional rule added and the Operation Bodenplatte Optional rule deleted.
37: A new method of victory (Supply Destruction) was added.

CHANGES TO THE COUNTERS
The arrival turns of a number of units were changed. SS units changed from dark gray to black. The 1SS/2 regiment was broken down into battalions and the composition of Kampfgruppe Peiper changed. The 18th Volksgrenadier Flak replaced by Rennhack. The German 89th Infantry Division’s fusilier battalion was added. German 15 PG recon and 521 PzJ units were deleted. The recon battalion was still refitting in Hungary and no primary sources could be found to support the presence of 521 PzJ. 3 FJ/8 was reduced to show it was missing a battalion. Führer Begleit and Führer Grenadier panzergrenadier regiments were corrected to show their bicycle battalions. US 3 Arm/643 TD was deleted (it had towed guns). US 9th Infantry Division is now complete. 4th Armored Division combat strength changed. US 83rd Infantry Division was added. Deleted British 6/3 Parachute Brigade (arrived too late).

CHANGES TO THE MAPS, CHARTS, AND TABLES
Order of Appearance Cards: These now include the starting units. Turn Record Track: A few typos fixed and more game information added. Map: There were no changes to the map except the naming of the towns in hexes 1433 (Tinlot) and 1435 (Villers-le-Temple). This has no effect on play so the map is not included in the update kit. Player Aid Card: A few minor typos were fixed. Since no significant information changed the player aid card is not included in the update kit but can be downloaded for free at GMTGames.com
