Red Parachutes: Extra Counters

We released Red Parachutes: Soviet Airborne Assault Across the Dnepr in 1995, and it remains one of the better games we’ve done over the years. But we did manage to make a few errors on the counter sheet, and have had a couple of re-considerations over the years as well.

 

Add the new Guards Cavalry regiment counters as the strongest representing each; rather than a unit with two steps (6-5-9/4-3-9) these are now three-step units, with the new 8-7-9 counters.

The others replace counters that had minor errors:

  1. The German regular army counter replaces the reverse side of the I/258/112 infantry battalion. The original had the incorrect strengths.
     
  2. The Soviet 53/9 infantry battalion counter replaces the reverse side of the 53/9 infantry battalion. The original had the incorrect formation symbol.
     
  3. The Soviet 3/460/100 infantry battalion replaces the front and reverse of the 3/460/100 infantry battalion. The original was missing the “460” on both sides.
     
  4. The Soviet 1st Cavalry Corps artillery regiment support counter replaces the reverse side of the 1st Cavalry Corps artillery regiment support counter. The original had the incorrect support strength.
     
  5. The three Soviet 4th Guards Anti-Tank Battalion anti-tank companies replace the front side of the originals. The original counters showed tham as part of 68th Guards Rifle Division.
     
  6. The Soviet 75/42nd Guards Artillery Regiment counter replaces the front side of the original. The original’s range was incorrect.
     
  7. The three Soviet 42nd Guards anti-tank companies replace the front side of the originals. The originals had an incorrect morale value.
     
  8. The Soviet 25th Guards Artillery Brigade counter replaces the front side of the original. The original had an incorrect anti-tank value. 
     
  9. The Soviet 5th glider artillery battalion replaces the 2nd. The original had an incorrect unit ID.
