Hello all,
I'm running into a small bump when trying to verify the Consolidated CT Errata (CCTE) v1.1 for the CT LBB 5 HG 2e Kinunir on p. 18 for the air/raft crew, the Grav APC crew and the APC's tons between CT Adventure 1 Kinunir p. 29.
The CCTE lists the three air/raft has a Flight section crew of 2. I am sure that per CT LBB 5 HG 2e p. 33 that one is a Flight Section crew member skilled to drive an air/raft and the other is the maintenance person since there should be at least one per three vehicles.
The Grav APC is listed with a crew of 2, unfortunately my calculations for Flight Section crew returns zero since there is only one APC. The next bump is that CT LBB 2 1977/1981 2e does not as indicated on CCTE p. 18 have a 10-ton Grav APC. To make matters a bit worse CT LBB 2 1977/1981 2e references CT LBB 3 1977/1981 2e which does not list anything about a 10-ton Grav APC or for that matter a 12-ton Grav APC per CT Adventure 1 p. 29.
The closest vehicle available in CT LBB 2 1977/1981 2e and CT LBB 3 1977/1981 is the 8-ton GCarrier which requires a drive and gunner. Looking at CT Adventure 1 p. 29 describes the Grav APC as being 12-tons and having a rapid pulse Y gun and the CCTE note that the jump capsule launcher is from CT Striker Book 2 I checked out CT Striker. In CT Striker Book 3 pp. 29-30 are four vehicle designs. Of the four there are two vehicles that are designated as APC.
CT Striker Book 3 p. 29 Imperial Marine Grav APC TL-15 is 168 m^3 (12-tons) and has a rapid pulse fusion Y gun. On pp. 29-30 is the second vehicle described as a G-Carrier Grav APC TL-9 112 m^3 (8 tons) without armament. The G-Carrier Grav APC has a drive requirement when unarmed and when armed requires a gunner making the crew total 1 unarmed and 2 when armed.
My belief is that the CT Adventure 1 Grav APC is based on the Imperial Marine Grav APC on CT Striker Book 3 p. 29. The G-Carrier Grav APC appears to be the GCarrier listed in CT LBB 2 1977/1981 2e and CT LBB 3 1977/1981 2e.
In CCTE the Grav APC has a crew of 2 listed which appears to be the crew requirement for an armed CT Striker Book 3 armed G-Carrier or the GCarrier from CT LBB 2 and CT LBB 3.
Per CT LBB 3 all vehicles require a skilled operator, even though the CT LBB 3 air/raft details does not mention a driver requirement like the other vehicles.
Using CT LBB 3 2e the three air/rafts I think require three drives and that the armed Grav APC requires a driver and gunner. Per CT LBB 5 HG 2e the air/rafts the should have an additional driver and maintenance person bring the total of five consisting of four drivers and one maintenance person. The Grav APC's crew pulls maintenance on their vehicle.
As noted from the above I have wandered off the trail very badly and hopefully someone here can get me straightened out.
