Aaand given the dates, what is the likelihood the books will be shipped at the time of the Black Friday/Christmas shipping hysteria? Oh dear, I do very much hope the likelihood of that is high - but we should wait for Alan to announce late pledges + shipping prices first. Which should happen imminently, I think. Au contraire, I am hoping that won't be the case, either before or after, or did you misplace a "low" and inserted a "high"…? |

Another one! The first para on p. 143 reads like it's missing a word, or the first couple of words of the paragraph have been dragged into the heading. Should it be: WestbayWestern Viejo Bay --- called Backbay locally --- is home ... Hmm, I wonder if this is perhaps an actual choice. The result is awkward, yes. The section's/paragraph's title is also the beginning of the first sentence in that section/paragraph. But looking at layout I'm inclined to think there was no better way to stick an extra row on that page. Something tells me it needs an internal round of proof reading, and then an additional round of backer proof reading before it is time to send to the printers… |

Hehe, in my head I replaced your "at the time of" with "before", because my head likes to replace words and sentences out of its own volition.  |

Hi,
Just dropping in from the Kickstarter as requested to log that there's a formatting issue in the contents pages of both books: several entries are entirely in capitals when the ones around them are not.
PG contents, 2nd page (PDF p5), under Weapons: HEAVY WEAPONS and GRENADES; under Vehicles: VTOL AIRCRAFT (and yes VTOL should be in caps!).
MG contents, 1st page (PDF p4), under Campaign Archetypes: AZURE.
I don't see any others!
Jon

What is the plan for the current version, will there be another round of proof reading or will they be updated and then sent to the printer? Given we still find errors I would vote for another round (but an end date set and a defined feedback form).

More errors, I don't know if anyone already mentioned this, but:
"squared" should be ², i.e. not m2 but ㎡ or m² (note that Unicode contains a character for ㎡, U+33A1 Square M Squared).
PG: p 183, and 201.
MG: p 32, 312, and 320.

I just searched for "m2", I would recommend to search for "m3" (see p 187, 228, and 242) and other possible combinations when all is done. And they have not done the classical mistake of "centigrade". ☺️ |
