Revised Core FAQ/Errata

Post by Grey Seer » Thu May 18, 2017 2:55 am

Hello!

In another thread, I recently discovered that the revised core rulebook most likely has an error in the combat example (or more specifically, in the Attercop profile) (see thread here: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8437)

This got me wondering...has anyone else noticed any errata in the core rulebook? I am honestly surprised there is no official errata document on the website...so perhaps there are simply so few that it isn't necessary?

I am not aware of any official errata, but there is a lost of frequently asked questions here: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=6618

Yes, it would be nice to know, if the change in the Attercops abilities was intentional (in the original Loremaster guide, they have a special ability that enable an extra attack, exactly as described in the combat example) in which case the combat example should be re written.

In my game the attercops function as they did originally, with an extra Sting attack, if they score a great success

It's obviously not an intentional change. They took the Notes column of the original table and turned it into a set of footnotes, probably because they changed the layout from a single column to two columns and needed to squeeze the table to make it fit. Whoever did this probably got confused by the new footnotes and forgot to copy the old footnote.

I do agree that it would be nice to see an Errata document, with at least this one item.

Honestly, though, this game has far fewer errata than most. Mostly there's a few clarifications on how to interpret certain things (like how Denizen of the Dark applies to rolls by adversaries only, not rolls against them, or that the maximum number of Success Dice that can be rolled is six).
Adventure Summaries for my long-running group (currently playing through The Darkening of Mirkwood/Mirkwood Campaign), and the Tale of Years for a second, lower-level group (in the same campaign).
