Known Errors:
1 - In the video, I mention that in the previous turn the German tankers were all spotted by random spotting. However, the designer has clarified that tankers do not roll for random spotting. This apparently must be a post-release change, because the rulebook has an example of a tanker rolling for random spotting. (This is hugely important, as it makes the tankers much harder to sink for the allies.)

2 - To the best of what I can glean from Board Game Geek, it looks like neither individual ships nor task forces may move if they conduct a Naval Patrol. I was under the assumption that Task Forces can move and patrol, while individual ships cannot, but this appears to be incorrect.
