Hullo, folks,

I was just wondering if there is any official a|state errata pages or the like available out there. Anyone have a listing of some such of the errata for the game?

No, there isn't an official errata but that's a bloody good idea! If anyone has particular page and paragraph references for mistakes they've spotted, please use this thread to post them and I'll collate into a PDF.

Cheers
Malcolm

Hullo, Malcolm,

I'm surprised that there has not been any errata spotted so far or mentioned by folks.

If you don't mind, I'll post a page of errata up to my website when this gets going and when I get a few more graphics for the a|state pages.

OK, and I don't have the book with me at the moment so it's from memory...

In the character creation example the player chooses a Drudge ?origin? and it is commented that as a Drudge they get an automatic folklore skill based on their Int. In the benefits for having a Drude ?origin? there is no mention of this addition. I'm assuming it's a hang over from an earlier incarnation.

Mik.

Hullo, Mik,

That's not a mistake.

p154, 2nd paragraph, last sentence:

"Characters from the Dispossessed, Redundant and Drudge origins also gain a base level in the Folklore skill equal to 20% of their INT stat."

I did, notice, however, that the example character on p161 shows a REA score that has been divided by ten, which it should not be.

I noticed a very minor typo yesterday as well, but I can't remember where, and it was very, very minor. All told, I think the editing was pretty damn tight, especially by RPG standards.

Got it, thanks.

As an intellectual exercise (as much as anything else) I'm trying to put together an Excel spreadsheet that will do all the character generation calculations for me. If one already exists then it'd be interesting to know (as while it's a pretty futile exercise anyway for the amount of times it'll be used, it's completely futile if one already exists!)

My copy of the rulebook replaces the corporate buildings section with a duplicate of another section from "the place" Does that count? :P

Hi there, does anybody know what the rules are regarding reach?? All melee weapons have a reach stat but there's nothing mentioned in the rules. Apart from that, I'm building up some lists of stuff for a/state, if anybody is interested, let me know.
