Anything that should be corrected (hopefully there won't be much!) we'll correct in the PDF version that comes in the gold master.

It was gratifying to see that many of my "catches" were incorporated in the newly released manual. Thanks for paying attention! Are you planning to sticky a new thread for typo catches? This one's probably not appropriate any longer as it's for the preview. That said, I did spot a disconnect in the new manual:

6.1.12 (Pg 104): The last sentence states "For greater realism, Japanese subs can be set to use the Japanese Sub Doctrine (see section 2.4.1 Japanese Sub Doctrine)." This option no longer exists, and in fact, section 2.4.1 is now titled "Fog of War".

Under section 6.3.2.2.1, Item Load Rate, there are specific rates given for troops, cargo, oil, fuel and resources, but not for equipment.  Is the load rate for equipment somewhere else, or is it the same as one of the other categories?  Or was it just left out by mistake?

Equipment is cargo for purposes of load.
