Szilard, thank you for pointing that out. I am not sure I understand the logic of how the "Guerillas 1" event affects ownership. I am assuming that it sets the rate of efficiency for guerilla forces, as this is what the rules state. Does it have some other effects (such as changing ownership of hexes?)? Anyways, I am glad to get past the first turn. Appreciate it.

I've never really used it, but AFAIK its effect is to flip hex ownership, with the number being the percentage chance of flipping. Yr "Guerrillas 1" event has a 50% rate, so 50% of player 2 hexes get flipper to player 1 each turn.

The manual section on event effects is unhelpful/misleading, but elsewhere (18.4) it says this:

"Theater Guerrilla levels represent things like partisan activity. Set this level if you want locations behind friendly lines to have a chance to spontaneously revert to
enemy control."

Which is still not great but at least closer to what actually happens, AFAIK.

Ok, that makes sense.

Would it be clearer if it were worded like this:

17.9.4. Event Effects
§ Force 1 or 2 Guerrilla Capability: ... Set a percentage chance for locations behind friendly lines to spontaneously revert to enemy control.

I'd think that "change to" would be clearer than "change to".

EDIT: Doh! "change to" rather than "revert to".

Yes ... and when I typed it, it made me think that 'switch to' might be even better. I don't like 'spontaneously' either.

Actually, any of those statements make better sense than the current rendering. As it is now misled me to understand its function in a different way.
