Pirates of Drinax

[MadBeardMan]

Hi Folks,

I've applied all the errata which is as follows to the FG modules, and have sent those off to SmiteWorks, now to pen an email.

Kteiroa is misprinted as "Kteireo" in Book 1, pp. 77, 91, 198, 199, 259.

The Sindalian name of Kteiroa is referred to as Piper in Book 1 (pp. 83, 84), but Stross in Book 2 (pp. 15, 180). Change to Stross.

Book 1: Page 58: Hroal's fleet references a 300-ton Bug Class Salvage Hauler. I believe this is an artifact from the 1st Ed version, as no stats are given for this class. The Salvage Hauler in 2nd Ed is the 400-ton Vulture Class.

In The Demon's Eye, Lemuel's surname alternates between Volin and Vinus. Each is mentioned 5 times (including once in the appendix). Go with Volin.

Book 2, Page 185. The last paragraph refers to Falcon as "Falkenburg".

"Toiho (...) is contemplating the planet of Pourne (Tlaiowaha/0704) – like Keaih, it is a waterworld". Change to “Toiho (...) is contemplating the planet of Pourne (Tlaiowaha/0704) – a fluid world/”

The reward for the 'Keaih Patron Mission' is "a shipping contract with the Company of Profits That Rise Like Mist. This contract involves shipping roughly 1,000 tons of cargo between Keaih and Vorito every month, at a rate of Cr2200 per ton". Change to Cr10000 per ton.

Browne is listed as 30 Billion in the book 2 pg 187 but travellermap lists it as 90 Billion. Change.

Check Aslan weapon and armour stats with Aliens of Charted Space 1 – if there is a difference, go with Alien 1.

Book 1, Page 259: ". . .so these ships are deployed mainly against foes outside the Imperium" That should read "Hierate", not "Imperium"

Trojan Reach page 15 last line
"laid wait to the countryside" should read "laid waste to....

Cam someone provide a link to the errata for PoD?

Cam someone provide a link to the errata for PoD?

It was emailed directly to me, so the post above is directly off the word doc I got, not sure where else it is.

I guess that will teach me to buy books off Amazon instead of directly from Mongoose. I wonder if they are going to post it on their site.

It is likely that the info MBM posted above is the extent of the errata. The email I got pretty much said the changes were minor.

Yep, it's the exact errata direct. I've emailed Matt to find out if the errata is posted elsewhere, it's likely to be on the forums.

Do any of you here that don't use Twitter use Facebook or another social media? I'm finding more marketing is required, FGC are doing great things but need to spread the word further. CSC still owes me around 1,000 cups of coffee to cover my time and stress!

Hey Folks,

I got the feedback from internal testing today, suffice to say it was quite a list but expected as PoD is HUGE. The good news, just a few hours tonight and 2/3 are addressed.

What they want me to do is to 'put the ships' from Book 3/High Guard in as ships, so I've added a new field 'Class' to spacecraft so the ships will be listed as 'Scarab II', but the class is 'Vulture-class Salvage Hunter'. So it means you have the ship twice, once as the Class (if you load Book 3) and once as the name.

I'll be adding class to 1.2.4 which is coming along very nicely.

Cheers,
MBM

Hi Folks,

Sent all the fixed issue for PoD this afternoon.

Plus added the errata file I got from Mongoose.

Cheers,

Good to hear. My group just finished a one off game, like 30mins ago, we may do one more, depends on when PoD comes out.

Thanks, and keep up the good work.

Thanks, I'm just reviewing where I was with Drinaxian Companion, as I want that over within the next week. Then with Shadows of Sindal adventures soon as well (my lunchtime challenge), I can draw a line under Drinax.

Cheers,
