The edits were submitted to Chaosium some time ago, and I collated many of them into one document. I still need to clean up that document (some of the edits required edits of their own, as sometimes happen).

It's also one of those "everything in one document" edits - and ideally I'd like to break it up into one for system/mechanics and one for the minor stuff like typos, grammar, aesthetic issues, etc.

Unfortunately, it doesn't have the edits from any work done by Chaosium. I wasn't privy to their editing/proofing process, so my work may have duplicated theirs. Some of the edits such as "Where have the footnotes in the weapons tables gone?" aren't going to be of much help to anyone, either. Furthermore, any changes Charlie made to the manuscript may not be included in edits I suggested.

I'll have to check for approvals to post what I've got, but it will take a little while to assemble.

Thanks for your patience.

It will be of great use to those who were brave enough to buy edition zero, and who will still be left with a perfectly playable editted version of that game, whether or not they puchased edition #1. So - it will be extremely well recieved Jason!!

I purchased my copy of zero a few days ago. Come to me! Fly faster cargo plane, faster I tell you!

Of course I plan to buy edition 1 also

Question: were the missing stats for the Sling spotted, on the Weapon Table?

I want a sling in my game, and it gets a mention in the book's text...

It's on the Primitive Missile Weapons table.

My tape-bound pre-EZ copy has it on page 248.
