CONAN ERRATA

actually deathdealer it's got to be in the printing, as page 109 has page 126 on the reverse side of it, then you get page 127 which has page 112 on the back of that. pages 110 and 111 are missing presumed dead. as far as i know each print run is a printing, but that said , i thought my copy was a first printing but now i'm not sure as there is no printing history in the front of the book, kinda odd, it just says printed in china. Ive been buying RPGs since 1977 and this has got to be the worst cock-up i've ever seen. maybe mrsprange can clear up how many versions of the game they managed to mess up.

maybe they printed beta test by mistake not actual version? har har har :twisted:

Hey guy. Mongoose said there won't be a second printing till at leat May, maybe later. Seeing how it isn't may yet, I don't think you have a second printing. I'm sure there will be a big anouncement when it comes out. I'm also sure that it will say somewhere on the credits page "second printing."

I don't see why there is so much confusion to this.

If you are missing pages or they are out of order in any way, this is clearly a problem from the printers. It's not unheard of for something to go wrong at the printer during one print run. There are pauses in runs.

sending it back this afternoon, no way am i paying for mongooses mistakes, they should have never put it on the book shelves in the state its in!! as far as i'm aware in order for there to be different copies of the book there has to be different printings, i have a friend in the I.T. dept. of a printers and as far as he knows thats the only way. i wont be buying mongoose products again.

hmm... you can always try to exchange it to version with all pages... shop will send it back to distributor or mongoose itself :twisted:

i have all the pages but the same errors as rest... duno that this is playable or not, gotta test it

Arkobla Conn thanks for the offer of reproducing the offending table and indeed to every one who took an interest, i've actually compiled the soldier relevent feats into groups so that until the characters have served in the type of regiment they cannot get access to either the formation fighting style or feats of that group, e.g. you have to have actually served in with a cavalry unit to be elligable for cavalry formation fighting or the feats in the cavalry group. i love tinkering so it was never that much of a problem, just a shame that what is otherwise a great looking book has to be blighted by third-world printing all so mongoose could save a buck, and now its gonna cost us all anyway. :?
