Hello All,
I'm new to the Mongoose Forums.
I have the opportunity to acquire a 1st printing of the Conan Core book fairly cheaply. I understand that there are a lot of typos in it and that many of these items have been corrected in the reprint (i.e., The Atlantean Edition).
My question is, how much of an improvement is the reprint? Would it be silly of me to buy the old version? I'm told that the book I may buy has all the errata added to it. Will I have a problem using this?
My main interest in the book is the world material and less so the game mechanics, but I would like to have the option of using the mechanics....any thoughts? Should I just buck up and buy the new version (note that this will probably delay my purchase as I'll have to wait for a birthday, Christmas, or such)
Thanks very much for any help.
