Is there a summary of rules changes from Forgotten Heroes to Band of Heroes? I've played FH quite a bit and it'd be nice to be able to jump into BoH just by reading the new stuff instead of the whole rulebook.

Hi Jeff,
The rules changes are very small. You could play any of the BoH scenarios with FH rules. Basically we made spotting DR 2 for blocking and 3 for degrading. Increased mortar and offboard arty effectivness, and integrated an opposed die roll for armor penetration. Piece of cake. Nothing major. This isn't ATS
Best,
Mark

Well, I appreciate that there seems to be less calls for 'divided by, round up/down'. I always get confused whether to round up or down. I'd really be cheating somebody except that I've only played solitaire so far, so I'm the loser either way![8D]
I should also add that assault movement is now firepower - 2, rather than firepower halved. Those M60 totin' Marine death squads should pack even _more_ firepower now then. It isn't easy being...err...not marines.
