The Rumanian HQs arrive on GT 2, but no Rumanian combat units appear until GT 16. This is an obvious error/misprint for the arrival turns of the Rumanian corps. What they should actually be is unclear. AXIS AT START: x10 Panzer Corps x27 Infantry Corps x1 Mountain Corps (x2 more in N Finnland) x12 Supply Bases x3 LW Fleets & Air Bases x2 Finn Inf Corps (x4 more in N Finnland) x1 Finn HQ (x1 more in N Finnland) REINFORCEMENTS: GT 2 X2 Rumanian HQ GT 5 x1 Infantry Corps GT 6 x1 Panzer Corps x2 Infantry Corps x1 Supply Base x1 Finn Inf Corps GT 8 x1 Infantry Corps GT 9 x1 Infantry Corps GT 10 x1 Supply Base GT 12 x1 Inf KG GT 14 x1 Infantry Corps x3 Supply Bases x1 Hungarian Army GT 16 x1 Inf KG x1 Italian Army x8 Rumanian Inf (???should some come in on GT 2) x1 Rumanian Mtn (???should some come in on GT 2) GT 17 x1 Pnzr KG GT 20 x2 Supply Bases GT 21 x1 GD Div GT 23 x1 Pnzr KG x1 Inf KG x1 SS Div GT 24 x1 SS Div GT 25 x1 Inf KG x1 SS Div GT 26 x1 Supply Base x1 SS Div GT 28 x2 Inf KG GT 29 x1 Pnzr KG GT 34 x1 Inf KG GT 37 x1 Inf KG GT 39 x2 SS Div SOVIET UNIT COUNTER MANIFEST x52 1-2-3 Rifle Corps (x5 of which designated for N Finland) x2 1-2-3 Marine Infantry Corps x21 2-1-5 Mechanized Corps x62 C-3 Rifle Combined Arms Armies x10 B-4 Guards Combined Arms Armies x5 B-2 Shock Combined Arms Armies x6 A-7 Tank Armies x16 0-1-6 HQs x10 0-1-2 Offensive Support Means x5 (*-*) Partisans x23 0-1-0 Economic Assets (Factories) x3 0-1-0 Economic Assets (Access Ports) x5 0-1-0 Economic Assets (Oil Fields) x5 0-1-0 Economic Assets (Coal Fields) x4 0-1-0 Economic Assets (Metal Fields) x11 0-1-0 Economic Assets (Oil Roads) x10 A Strength Markers x30 B Strength Markers x85 C Strength Markers x35 C* Strength Markers Problems/Errata in the Countermix: 1. Six Rifle Armies (the 3rd) are duplicated in the countermix while the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th are missing) and all shown as arriving on GT 6. I think some of these should either be on the map at start (as the 23rd Army is) or arrive on earlier turns. 2. The GT 35 rifle corps probably is a typo, and it should be an at-start unit (as are all other infantry corps). Either free deploy it or put it on Moscow. 3. The yellow rifle corps are all combat groups, and all but one set up in N. Finland. Note that the 42nd Rifle Corps also sets up in N. Finnland.
