Designer Series Problem

By panzerjaeger, in Tide of Iron

My problems are with the scenario, Ring Around Aachen, from the Designer Series. First of all the German has 8 deployment hexes, which means he can deploy a maximum of 24 units, yet the setup gives him 26 units. Secondly, the Americans can win on turn 1, and it is not even that difficult. Am I reading something wrong or missing something, or does this scenario have problems. Nothing is mentioned about it in the FAQ/Errata so I thought possibly I was missing something.

Looks like someone overlooked the playtest phase. gui%C3%B1o.gif

Did you send this question to FFG as well?

Does any units have transport ability? Then you could mount some squads and increase the number you can deploy.
