Los,

buddy....

you're reading the rules... but you're mistaken.

The errata (from Mike Elliot and Jon T) specified that this was an error on
the card. It is once per activation. So a reactivated unit CAN fire again.

I only point this out so you and I are on the same page...:)

I can provide you with a copy of the SG2 errata I DL'd - some Q&A with
Mike Elliot.

Now, what it doesn't say anywhere, but probably should, is that no unit
can be re-activated more than once per game turn. And even then ONLY by
figures in direct chain of command. This is something I have seen abused
- units of formation A being reactivated by the leaders of formation B
and units being reactivated 2-3 times if enough commanders are around.
Neither of these is desireable.

BTW, Congrats to the Los-meister on completing Rot Hafen. A long but
fruitful journey.

:)   Tom B.

oops thanks for the correction! Was there other official erratta I missed? Is
it posted somewhere? (fire once per activation makes a big difference)

Particularly if you are playing with platoon sergeants too. Please point me to
the erratta I'd like a copy (some SG2 coming down the pike next weekend)
