The following errata and clarifications are for the Special
Panzerblitz Issue of the Boardgamer magazine which was published
in March 2001. Anyone wishing to purchase a copy of this issue
can do so from the Boardgamer magazine which has a website at
www.bright.net/~monninb. Most of the errors listed are simple
typos and will be corrected in the next printing of the magazine.
As more errors are noticed this list will be updated.
Errata:
Page 22 - Prokhorovka Situation #6, Russian Order of Battle,

Page 73 - Situation #26, Scenario Introduction, 5th Line: The
word Grendadier should be Grenadier.
Page 73 - Situation #26 - Russian Order of Battle, Group A:

(There is no Weapons Class J in Panzerblitz.)
Page 74 - Situation #27 - Russian Order of Battle, Group C:
The Weapons Class for the M-13 should be H, not J.
Countersheet - The German Sd Kfz 10/4 and the Ostwind counters
should have a Weapons Class of H, not A.
The T-34 counters are T-34a, not T-34c.
Clarification:
Through out the book the Russian BT-8 is listed as having a
Weapons Class of H. This is not a typo. In the original article
where the BT-8 was introduced back in the General Vol.13-3 it was
listed as having a Weapons Class of A. This has since been proven
to be in error. The BT-8, which is in reality the BT-7a, was a
support tank which carried a little snub-nosed 76.2mm/L16.5 gun.
This gun fired HE as their primary round. Although the gun did
have an AP round, it was for self-defence only. The majority of
the rounds that this tank carried were HE due to its support
role. Hence the change to the present Weapons Class of H.
