In the blurb on the back of book 7: Will you find this key or will you, like all who have entered before you, succumb to the terrot that stalks the dungeons of this nightmare fortress.

Terrot really exist:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrot

So, there're evil motorcycles in Castle Death? :lol:

EDIT: BTW, the spread-sheet in the mini-adventure of book 4 has been corrected in my edition.

Book 6: On the Action Chart, at the bottom of the Weapons List, it is written: "If combat entered holding Weapon and appropriate Weaponskill +2CS". Shouldn't it be now that we are in the Magnakai series: "Weaponmastery +3CS"?

From a few notes I made while my computer was down:

Book 4, section 328, inappropriate use of the word lay (dead bodies lay strewn across the something or other). The word should be lie.

Book 5, section 2, the word the is missing (at the end of the room).

I'm paraphrasing ever so slightly but I found the missing the stood out a bit.

There was another incorrect lie/lay grammatical issue in the new book 1 (I can dig out my old reports of that along with a few others but I think it's mostly been fixed by now).

Books 4 and 5 with no equipment section and book 7 with the same equipment as book 6. Furthermore, the errata they published for book 4 also contains the book 6 equipment section.

Conclusion : they really have some problems with the equipment in each book!

Hope this will not be the case anymore.

Since it seems there will be no errata published may as well continue this thread..

The reference to 'safe-keeping' is missing from the Equipment section of book 5.

(BTW: The Equipment sections of the books with 'missing equipment sections' are not really missing. What they miss is a equipment list to choose from. It seems they are copy pasted from book 1.. which makes them rather useless, admittedly.)

In Book 5, Section 289 reads "you hear a tongue you well". That should be "you hear a tongue you know so well".

Today I received my copy of Book 4, and noticed that in the mini-adventure, D'Vals action chart is actually Loi-Kymar's from the Book 3 mini adventure (6 Slot herb pouch, additional object slot, CS and END scores, that's it). In the combat record on the chart, it even says Loi-Kymar vs Enemy.

Mini-adventure book 9.

Sogh has a combat action chart part (but no combat skill) and is missing a Fortune section of his action chart for his Fortune score.

Man, I really hate finding errors and such, especially this one, as the book has been reprinted already because of an error.

Book 8, Jungle of Horrors, Paragraph 260

Choices:
If you have a meal in your backpack, turn to 34
If you have neither a meal nor the Magnakai discipline of Psi-Surge, you must stand and fight the creature (turn to 5)

There's a missing option, which should read:

If you have the Magnakai discipline of Psi-Surge, turn to 250.

250 is there, and is correct.

The weaponlist for Weaponmastery in disciplines section is still incorrect in books 8, 9 and 10.

Hmmm... Can we get a corrected version of this in the remaining books?

Sword is listed twice and Bow is not listed.

Also, book 9 section, 145 has the wrong currency rate.

It says 12 Lunes is 4 Gold Crowns.

Unless Guyuk's tavern has a special exchange rate this should be 3 Gold Crowns. 1 Gold Crown = 4 Lune. This is not a new error. Same bug is present in the Red Fox edition.

In the mini-adventure of book 10, Daziarn is always spelled Dazairn for some unknown reason. It is spelled correctly in section 350 of the main adventure though...

Just discovered that the is now a currency size problem in the books. :(

In Book 9 and 10, the game rules clearly says that 1 Lune takes the same space 1 Gold Crown when you have them in your Belt Pouch.

However, the books often tell another story. For instance the rewards received from Count Counundrum (Book 8, 16 and 59) clearly says that 4 Lune takes up the same space as 1 Gold Crown.

Coins taking up the same space regardless of currency type (at least for Lune - Crown) is a very clear rule change, since this was clearly not the case in the previous edition.

What is the reason for this change?

Some (fairly minor) typos I spotted in the new version of Flight From the Dark: -

1) Section 5: 'Then you pull the rope taught and draw the book back until it lodges firmly between two of the wooden palings.' (taut)
2) Section 220: 'The vast chamber is is eerily empty and quiet, save for the feint noises of battle...' (faint)
3) Section 384: 'You descend a broad staircase which leads to an anti-chamber.' (antechamber)

Count Counundrum - 20 Lune 1st riddle, 40 Lune 2nd riddle... hmm my Belt Pouch is full and I have 10 Lune I cannot carry, not to mention the Gold Crowns I have to leave behind. Not even 13 Gold Crowns worth. Surely this isn't what Joe intended.

50 Coins rather than 50 Crowns or equivalent in your Belt Pouch seems more logical but this problem will get worse with currencies such as Kika and Ren where 10 = 1 Gold Crown. A full Belt Pouch of these would mean you only had 5 Gold Crowns worth! :roll:

I'll stick with 4 Lune = 1 Gold Crown space. It's like having a "4 Lune Coin" or "10 Kika Coin" the same size, etc. as a Gold Crown

Another small glitch noted in The Dungeons of Torgar:

Action Chart permits only 6 Magnakai disciplines. Completion of all previous Magnakai adventures (book 6-9) should allow the reader to choose 7 Magnakai disciplines.
