UP FRONT GAME SYSTEM QUESTION BOX By Alan R. Arvold 7th Edition It has been some years since Avalon Hill has published any Errata or Questions Boxes for UP FRONT, BANZAI, or DESERT WAR. With the demise of Avalon Hill and the GENERAL there will most likely be no further updates. This has left it to dedicated UP FRONT players to come up with their own answers to rules questions. I have been one such person. Over the years I have collected rules questions and their answers. Some questions were to Avalon Hill and answers were received back from them but those answers were never published in the GENERAL. Other questions were picked up from other publications (such as the now defunct UP FRONT newsletter RELATIVE RANGE) and kept on file as references. Finally there were questions which were listed in UP FRONT articles published in the GENERAL but never put into the Question Box. Back in the fall of 1998 I decided to put these questions and answers in an article for all to read. Since that time I have updated this article six times and this is the seventh edition of it. The answers to these questions are considered to be “UNOFFICIAL” and only refer to the Second Edition UP FRONT game and its expansions. In some cases the answers to certain questions disagree with those of the Official errata by Andrew Maly. I believe that UP FRONT players have a right to see both mine and Mr. Maly’s answers and decide for themselves who is correct on those particular questions. Also there are questions and answers in this article, some of which deal with rules loopholes that have existed in the game for years, which do not appear in Mr. Maly’s errata. This article provides a reference for those loopholes and unanswered questions
