There's some commentary in the main forum about this book, but it's not really errata (and neither are the two things I'm about to mention, really, but more suggestions).
p. 5: Since the full background of the Islands aren't really spelled out in the adventure, it would be useful to use the blank allegiance column to actually include the allegiance (ownership/control/whatever) of systems with regard to the major powers.
p.14: Deck plans. The text mentions that the front section of the cargo deck still has the fore cargo doors, which help with the first 40 ton chunk, but unless those iris valves in the little vestibules between are as wide as the passage, getting stuff in and out of the next four modules seems... challenging. Maybe make the valves stretch the whole way, or depict them like cargo airlocks on the Empress Marva plans? Or put in side doors for each section?
Edit: And an actual 'bug' I think previously mentioned:
p.97 and p. 102: The new deck plans on p. 97 does not correspond to the described location for the low berths on 0. 102. By referencing the old adventure I would guess this would be in the starboard small cargo bay (#9) - I was going to say in the aft section of it, but the door splits it in the middle... so.... Originally this was supposed to be two 4 ton modules on either side of the ship, one of which was loaded with low berths. Yes, this might be a modified version of the hauler , but since it is the one relevant to the adventure it should be... relevant to the adventure. I'd like to see the location on the deck plan as in the earlier version, but if not, the text should describe it in a way the corresponds to the location of the start of the adventure.
