7.02 says that Attack Strength and Range are on the left side of the counter, but the Red howitzer picture in 3.01 has the Attack stats on the right side.

Proofing the Ogre stat sheets...
While thinking about Ogre AP (7.05.1) and whether the AP have a range for attacks (yes, I know they do, but the rules don't say so anywhere), it occurred to me that the Ogre stats (for any of the weapons) are not part of the rules. I know they are available online, but will we get a chance to see the sheets to look for any issues there?

The end of 9.01 and the beginning of 9.02 seem redundant.

Re: Rulebook PDF Posted
When attacking a bridge, it is stated that "Fire on all of its hexes can be combined for effect." Does that mean that multiple units may fire at different parts of the bridge to get combined attack strength (eg, the river bridge is D8; two GEVs attack the SE hex and two more attack the NW hex, for a combined attack strength of 8 to get a 1-1 attack)?
I know it's been worded like this forever, but I'm not sure it's clear what it means. Additionally, if a bridge is destroyed (especially the river bridge), do all hexes become "bridge out" hexes that behave like rubble, or just the hexes that were targeted? My example above suggests all three hexes would become "Bridge Out" hexes, but what about targeting the center hex and the SE hex? Would the NW hex also be rubble?

Re: Rulebook PDF Posted
Section 3, page 7:
"2-D (flat) counters" and "3-D counters" are hilighted in red, but have no ending Period like most of the rest of the item callouts (eg, 3.01). I don't know if that is specifically wrong, as they appear to just be hilights in a sentence, but the layout is not consistent with the rest of the rules.

5.07.1 Road Bonus
"It may not use the additional hex to leave the road, ram, or overrun." That last part is new; does that mean you can't use it to ram or overrun, even if you are continuing on the road? Why would the road bonus specifically disallow that?

6.07.3 Ramming by Superheavies. A Superheavy may ram Ogres or other armor units as if it were an Ogre Mk. I (see 6.05). It suffers a 1-1 attack. If optional rule 13.07 is in use, it also loses treads as a Mk. I.
Is "it" the superheavy? This isn't clear. Perhaps change it to: 6.07.3 Ramming by Superheavies. A Superheavy may ram Ogres or other armor units as if it were an Ogre Mark I (see 6.05). The Superheavy suffers a 1-1 attack. If optional rule 13.07 is in use, it also loses treads as a Mark I. What is the result of the superheavy ramming if it does not destroy the target? I assume it then follows 6.08?

Re: Rulebook PDF Posted
7.12.3 Spillover against terrain. If the optional rules for damaging and destroying terrain are being used, spillover attacks are also rolled against the defending unit’s hex. See Section 13.01.2.
There's good information for spillover fire on terrain, and on units when an armor unit it targeted, but there isn't anything clear on spillover if the original target is the hex. Since spillover is defined this way: 7.12 Attacks on stacked units: spillover fire. When units are stacked (that is, when more than one counter is placed in the same hex), they may be attacked as follows: The attacking player declares one of the counters to be the “target” of the attack.It looks like there is no such thing as "spillover by attacking the hex." Is that true, and does it need to be explicitly stated?
