All the files are in the zip, so everything is ok (iPad running older iOS didn't show the zip file extension). Works fine from a pc.

This .pdf appears to be missing the Quick Reference Sheets, like the Fire Resolution Table. I have a hard copy of the WWII version, and it has 8 QRS. I'm not sure how active the publisher is these days, so I've let Wargame Vault know about this issue. Hopefully it'll get resolved!

Any chance to get the Basic ruleset for the WWII game, "The Face of Battle", in .pdf form? It would be great especially since the expansions for it are available here at Drivethrurpg.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
