On page 27, in the “Defend the Negev!” Scenario, the flavor text is repeated twice, once in each column.

No. They will be a combined product.

This might be too piddly to warrant a correction but in the art for The Daimyo and The Dragon, there's a grammatical error in the Japanese text on P3. The top left text block, left most bottom character should be す rather than せ. This according to my wife who is Japanese.

She read "OGA計画” with each western letters spelled out individually like "Oh Gee Ay (plan)" whereas I suspect the illustrator meant OGA as a kind of romanization of Ogre due to Japanese pronunciation as "Oh-ga-". Generally in Japanese loan words from other languages are done in the katakana script and Ogre is オーガー. Since that creates a artistic text flow problem (4 characters instead of three breaks flow for right to left vertical text), I understand the possible compromise here.

For those of y'all who dont read Japanese the top left text block means "For the nation, OGA Plan will take back the sea". The bottom text is "Japan New Navy". Not up to me to say if that should have been "Japan Empire" 日本帝国 or not. To be extremely pedantic, to match the expansion counter PDF it would be "New Nihon Empire" 新日本帝国 making the 新 character before 海軍 possibly redundant.

All that said, thanks to Roland Boshnack for giving us something exploring a different theater of war!

Thank you, Izzy! I should note that I had nothing to do with the art, but I am very happy Drew included it. I plan on doing a lot more exploration of the Nihon-Chinese theater through my miniatures and fan fiction, and I'm hoping to write an article on kitbashing the plastic models to represent machines like the Oni and Samurai.

I've not yet received a notification that I can download Ogrezine II yet, but it looks like others are receiving theirs. When do I start to panic?

So my 2 downloads arrived yesterday and was well worth the wait. "Mercy" was an excellent story and already has me thinking about way to work her into scenarios as well as her mysterious Statement. Got a lot to think about.
