Let's clean up our Rules Clarifications. We will need to migrate as much useful information as possible from the old forum but it would be great to have it in a better format.
What clarifications do people have? These are certainly overlapping, but I believe they fall into these categories: 1) Clarification about a unit 2) Clarification about a unit type 3) Clarification about a specific SA 4) Clarification about general SAs (e.g., all Once per Game SAs) 5) Clarification about the Rulebook
What else?
I think it would be worthwhile to have a limited number of stickied threads with links to posts contained therein (and maybe an overarching thread with links to those specific threads).
E.g.:
Unit Clarifications Thread (with a post for each unit that can be linked from the first post--have a question about King George V, go to that post. Or perhaps a post for each nation, or unit type, etc. with spoilers making it easier to find the unit and reveal the ruling (this needs to be figured out). There may then be links to a different thread/post for Jammed Mount clarifications etc.)
SA Clarifications Thread (a post for each SA that can be linked from the first post; ideally this will also eventually contain a link to each unit that has the SA)
etc.
Each time someone posts a new question as a new thread, once it is resolved the answer can be incorporated into the appropriate thread.

Looking over those 21 pages of posts in the old forum, this may be a time to weed things out. Probably find the questions that created the greatest debate or confusion and see if there was a consensus answer. "Simple" questions that can be answered by referring to the rulebook can easily be answered in the future.

Should we look at aggregating a 'new players FAQ' out of that maybe too?
