Strong-coupling effective action(s) for SU(3) Yang-Mills

of the lattice. We study the models for SU(3) via Monte Carlo simulation, finding satisfactory agreement with the critical point of the original theories especially at low

N_\tau

. We have fixed an error in the group measure used in arXiv:1010.0951 and provide here the correct numerical results.
