I forgot to ask what AU14 is.

August 1914, Infantry Attacks. Gold club can get the 2nd Ed scenarios and rules for $20.

Will AOI ever get put into the database?

[plloyd1010]

Yes. Do you want help with the library?

[petermc]

I didn't mean that to sound like a complaint. I was wondering that since the thread was so long about the components being rehashed, I wondered if it was going to get left out of the database. Should have been more clear. I assume *everything* eventually goes into the database?

[plloyd1010]

Everything eventually will. There has been an entry problem since the different series have been split.

Now that data entry is working again. We are trying to catch-up. I won't be entering AOI, since I don't have the book.Would you like to join the effort?

Great to hear that Larry is alright; I'm recovering from a broken neck suffered in November. 49 years of prednisone weakened C column.

My latest game is AOI. I looked high and low for the L3/33. Super glad to read the answer here. But gad, APL really screwed up p n some other things, too. A couple of British 4-3 rated infantry plathetoons from Afrika Korps are misprinted with "4-3"on front & back!!
It is no wonder that APL h had extra sheets f from AK. The sheets may have been
printer's waste. Also, scenario #4 has no status of off board artillery for the 1st South African Brigade.
In addition, for the uninitiated in CoE & AOI geography, what is the. berm like striation on board #88? I'm also assuming that the gray white lava looking hexes (91/1016 for ex.) are brush and 91/ 0415 is a village. I'm use to. European terrain.

On the subject of maps, it would be nice if APL redid its AK and DR maps for consistency with Guy Riessen maps. They'd have at least one buyer.

The gray white lava looking terrain in 91/1016 et. al. is Rocky.  91/0415 is indeed a village.  

Not sure what you mean by the berm-like striation on board #88.  If you mean the small vertical lines in 88/0313 or 88/1213, that's an artifact of the printing process and the terrain is clear.

Thank you for your help, Robin. The feature I was thinking itabout runs the length of board

88 from 0701 to 0717. The introduction of the East Africa games point to the need for an illustrated TEC.

Agree that the game really needs an illustrated terrain chart. There are so many different land forms, and some of the older maps are particularly confusing.
