Pre-Order: Erebor - The Lonely Mountain and Q Workshop Dice

[bluejay]

Ordered!

[Dunheved]

It's YES.

Began skipping through the pages of Erebor and saw that in page 11, in the text in the scroll, the "D" of Dwarves in the first bullet point has an incorrect font.

Going back to the pdf...

[Curulon]

Bah! Been waiting all morning and still no PDF!

[Falenthal]

I found that Móna, the pregenerated Dwarf of the Iron Hills character (bravo for creating a female dwarf... with beard!), has the Fatigue Rating wrong (AFAIK):

Great Axe enc.4 + Spear enc.2 + Iron Hauberk enc. 20 + Helm enc. 6 = Enc. 32
Substracting 6 from the Favourite Heart totals 26.
But the Fatigue written inthe Endurance field is 24.

Anyone has an explanation of why the Dwarves of the Iron Hills have 3 starting ranks in Stealth, the same as a Hobbit and even one more than Mirkwood-elves?

I will check into that, but that does look wrong. The Dwarves of the Grey Mountains, on the other hand, are supposed to have 3 starting ranks in Stealth and they only have 1 listed.

Thanks, T.S. Luikart!

I wasn't going to complain about the Dwarves of the Grey Mountains, but being wanderers, vagabonds, seekers, etc., it seemed far more appropiate for them to have Stealth above 1.

And even Awareness and Athletics (for the long marches along the dangerous Narrows of the Grey Moutains and climbing the hills and the ruins of old dwarven mansions),but that falls more into personal likings.

Yessss finally! AWESOME, preordered... Well, sorta. It didnt quite process my payment, just sent me to paypal and is sitting in my orders. Sent email to Nick, now we wait! Man, I so hope I get the PDF before Monday, since thats the next game session! My wallet, my poor wallet. Just ordered Hobbit Tales and Tales of Wilderland plus some dice, but how can I resist the DWARF book and those new dice?

I do have a quick question though-- Will there be copies of Erebor (and/or Journeys and Maps) available for purchase at GenCon this year? I'm trying to decide whether to "pull the trigger" now on the supplements or wait about a month and save on shipping.

The easy answer is No for Erebor and probably for J&M. The long answer is that it takes longer than from now to Gencon (what 6 weeks) to finish error checking with the help of fans and then get the Erebor books printed. Now it's possible that C7 might have an air freighted smallish number of books on hand but unless you get there first day within a couple of hours of the opening I doubt you'd get a chance to get one. J&M has been on pre-order for longer and there is a high chance of some being available by then.
