New Panzer Campaigns Features & call for Manuals Updates

[Xerxes77]

Hi everyone!
I'm a newbie to the PzC series and have only recently discovered this forum. Currently I'm working on wrapping my head around the main loop of the games and progressively adding more details and nuance as I get more confident.

It can all get a bit overwhelming, so I salute any effort towards improving the manuals, particularly more information (or examples) about the formula used to arrive at the numbers shown on the combat results window (as opposed to on-map results), which I find difficult to parse, or the mind-bending (for me) mechanics described in the Combined Arms Penalty section. I understand this is a very long-standing series, so these may have been clarified many times over the years!

Anyway, I believe I have spotted a couple of errors in the user manual which at first caused me a great deal of confusion until it dawned on me that they might be just that--errors! I'm referencing the user Core Manual linked to in the Updates section on the JTS website.

On page 65, at the end of the "Unit Modifiers" section it reads:
"Suppose that the attackers consist of the same type of units, an A Quality unit at Medium Fatigue and a C Quality unit at No Fatigue. Again, the unit modifiers are 10% and –20%. The lowest unit modifier is –20% and this is used for the attackers."
*** I believe this should be "a C Quality unit at High Fatigue" ??

Page 99, under "Fatigue accumulation":
"Losses taken from fire and from defending in assault range randomly from 0 up to the factor times the loss value, in men equivalent. Fatigue taken from attacking in assault is double normal values."
*** I believe this should be "Fatigue taken from fire... ranges randomly" ??

Once again, thanks for your efforts in making things easier for us manual junkies!
