I just double-checked and the Supremacy files were up to date
but there had been some tweaks to the Late War files-mostly to
variant data. I've just updated the Late War .pdf and posted a
file dated 22Mar20 to dropbox.

Cool. I was just about starting to check the What ADC Do I Use?
section.

Scott, please do not mention the Supremacy reprint on CSW until
it has been announced publicly. I have deleted your mail that
mentioned it.

A quick update:
So, I talked to GMT. They are not putting any reprints onto P500
until the lockdown is over, and even when that's lifted the big
sellers, such as Twiglet Struggle, will get priority.
Supremacy is down to the last handful of copies, so we will want
those to shift and sell out the first edition before we can go
for the second edition. So second edition is a bit up in the
air. It may be three or four months, or perhaps even longer,
before we can publicly announce the second edition and get it
into pre-order. Again, please keep mum about this until we can
make a public announcement.
I shall be starting on the new aircraft artwork this weekend,
though in truth there's no hurry on this. Note that I can't just
wheel out the artwork for countersheets, because they will have
a different layout in the reprint. However, it's not a huge job
to fix.
Vincent was doing a pass on the scenario book proofing, but has
gone silent. I hope he's okay and not sick with this horrible
thing. If you read this, Vincent, please let us know you're okay
and in one piece!

Vincent has got in touch to say he’s well. He’s been a bit busy
of late, but I’m sure he’ll be back at some point.

Nothing has changed on the Supremacy second edition front and I
can’t really move much on this until GMT has not only reopened,
but returned to some semblance of normalcy. I still think a P500
entry, which I’d hoped to be ready for May, is now a fair few
months away.
That said, work will continue behind the scenes. As you’ve seen,
the new squadron art is 75% done. I’m hoping to get the scenario
book proofing feedback off Vincent soon. I should be able to
post an updated scenario book for review later this month,
though testing of the new scenarios will not begin until the
autumn, once Legends is out of the way.
So things will continue to creep forward on this and when we can
make an announcement - before the end of summer, I hope - we’ll
be ready.

If I seem a big cagey about posting up the v2.1.1 living rules
publicly, it’s that I’m considering whether to post them soon or
wait until we’ve announced Supremacy 2e. Given that the rulebook
is clearly formatted in the same way as the Supremacy rules, I
feel like I should wait.

I'm 2/3 done typing my feedback in. Sorry for the wait...

My current estimate is that 26 new squadron counters are needed
for Supremacy 2e. We have an allowance of 40 at present. I may
hang fire on adding any more until we get to test the new
Supremacy scenarios and re-test the old in the winter. But we
have a fuzzy margin of 14 counters to play with. Which is nice.
The current list is:
2 x Extra P-51D sqns to deconflict IDs with B-17s in scenario
S20
2 x Mustang III sqns in RAF scheme
2 x Mustang III flts in RAF scheme
5 x Lancaster sqns
6 x Late Model Halifax sqns
3 x A-36 sqn (not sure if flights are needed)
1 x Ta 152 sqn
3 x Ta 152 flt
1 x Railhead / Lt Flak C
1 x Hvy Flak D / ???
I’m still debating as to whether the Brazilian P-47s are added
to this list.
Another nice-to-have would be Mustang IVs in RAF drag.

I spotted an erratum in S12 The Return of the Guards in
Sup_scenarios_16May20.pdf.
2. Only Ju 87s can attack surface units. Ju 87Ds
can only attack the Troops units, and Ju 87Ds the
Tanks unit.
The scenario as published has "Ju 87G-1s can only attack Tanks."
