The players can get quickly familiarized with the Quick Start Guide and then continue with the Advanced Rules.
The advanced rules have been periodically updated, beginning in July 2007, with the Clarifications Document. The update introduces new concepts (such as ASW harassment and strafing penalties) not present in the original rules. Since at least one unit of the Task Force expansion set directly refers to these new rules, they are implicitly considered as part of the core ruleset, despite only having been published online to date.
There are some companies and blog sites that offer other ideas for Battles, advanced rules and tactics as well.
An official FAQ for the Task Force set can be found online.[1]. It addresses errata such as misprints and ambiguously worded rules for the Task Force expansion. Further errata are contained in the Clarifications Document. Only additional unacknowledged errata are listed here:
The correct name of the Dutch submarine is Hr.Ms. Zwaardvisch, not Zvaardvisch. The Focke-Wulf Fw 200 reconnaissance plane was nicknamed "Condor", not "Kondor". In the War at Sea base set and the Flank Speed expansion, the colors of the Italian roundel were inverted. The roundel in Task Force was correct. (This error is partially acknowledged in the Clarifications Document.) In the expansion Flank Speed, the set checklist lists the Voroshilov Kirov Kirov The Yamashiro Fusō . The Yamashiro Fusō ' s third turret points toward the bow. The HMS Repulse miniature is actually that of her modernized sister ship HMS Renown , and not the unmodernized HMS Repulse . Some HMS Glorious miniatures have the island installed backwards. Australia
