Re: More UK OOB Errata - Andy
Depends on which orgnisation the recce regiment is - UK recce formations change every 5 minutes it seems, and there are usually at least 2 variants at the go at the same time (like BAOR and UK). And if deployed, then "extras" can turn up - e.g. the striker was supposed to be being retired but showed up being used in Iraq <g>.
1) The ferrets are probably just liason vehicles - like "tin jeeps", used to go visit the supported formation HQ and so forth, or for the CSM to toddle about in when doing admin tasks. Not really needed in-game as they are not battlefield troops as such. Could be useful for say supply convoy escort scenarios?.
2) I cannot see any reason for 10 (ten) sultans in a squadron (= Company). 2 I might believe. If command and control vehicles - left out as not of any use to the game (plus special "command vehicles" are a kill-me-quick sign to your opponent), but it may also be the original web site organiser confusing these with the spartan (used for the assault troops), or possibly the samaritan (ambulance) or the Sampson(?) recovery/fitters vehicles. Spartans would do OK for SHQ vehicles to stand for sultans, if wanted.
Cheers
Andy
