Thread: Magic World Errata Is Live

Okay, I've logged a number of errors and omissions since the release of the rules last week. A number of these Chaosium was able to incorporate quickly before the book was printed. Not all of them, sadly. I'm talking with them now about getting the PDF updated so those of you with it will be able to get the corrected copy. You should all get some kind of alert when that happens.

The top post on this forum has the link to the Google Doc where errata will be kept going forward.

But, for those reading this, here it is: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...it?usp=sharing

You'll see that it's nothing game-breaking. Just a couple of little omissions, and a handful of things that were incorrect, or explained poorly.

If you have any questions in the future, or find any other errors, post them here, or email to magic-world@chaosium.com

Game on!

Character sheet has dodge at Dex x 2 … represented as x 02 … for some reason.
Pg 39 has Dodge at Dex x2
Dodge is in the physical skill category which normally uses strength, but both the character sheet and skill description indicate dex is used.

None of the above may actually be an error, but it may cause some confusion. I've decided the character sheet and skill description is correct in that Dex is used.

Pg 19 Species – wlves should be elves
Pg 25 new top left of page – huge gap between the words Personal and specialty.
Pg 27 Soldier/Guard/Watchman – no comma between Move Quietly and Shield
Pg 72 Dagger Is given a Weapon Class of 5 Pg 78 puts the dagger in weapon class 4

Yes, Dodge is equal to DEXx2+STR mod for being in the Physical skills category.

No errata to report, but a couple of requests:

1. Could you put a revision date on the document? It's helpful to know if I have an older version on disk/dead tree.

2. Is there some way for Google Drive to notify me when a document changes, even if you have read-only permission?

Thanks.

1 - Good idea.

2 - I don't know. I'll look into it.

Angels have ability to become invisible at 1/2 pow in
Levels?

I guess there's an issue with fatigue. MW creatures have RQ3/BRP Fatigue scores, but MW's fatigue rules do not use Fatigue as a stat.

Thanks! Just checked, and it does look like FAT snuck through on three critters: Dwarf, Hawk, and Manticore. I'll note to ignore them.

Also Lamia p. 186.
"She gains fatigue points only by draining
STR (blood) from passersby. Lamiae do not
regenerate fatigue points normally."

Stat block for Lamia is OK though.

Thanks. Thought I'd caught all of those.
