WSR: Ambush With a Surprise question

[Warren Smith]

I'm wondering about the setup for the scenario Ambush With a Surprise.

The American 2/16 Infantry is supposed to set up within 1 hex of R5. However, the only way every unit can set up within 1 hex of R5 is if they overstack. Hex Q4 can't be set up in because it's a river and is impassable. I've checked WSR v1 and the setup instructions are the same and I haven't seen any errata on this.

It would make more sense to me to have 2/16 setup within 1 hex of R6. Is this a possible error in the scenario as printed?

Hi Warren,

This was an error carried over from the first edition. So we going to adjust it to say that they can set up within 2 but not across the river.
