  1. Most definitively Reddit, r/rpg and r/BRP seem obvious, some others, maybe avoiding specific IP subs (CoC, RQ, 7thSea...)
  2. On page 35, in the "Skill list by category" table, some links don't point to the correct skill description/page : COMMUNICATION Status points to Persuade p.48 instead of p.51 MENTAL Psychoterapy points to p.33 instead of p.48 PHYSICAL Dodge points to p.33 instead of p.40
  3. On page 29, Priest's last line reads "You could be an acetic monk (...)", though I believe no Cult of the Vinegar should be referred to. (sorry 😉)
  4. Stil on page 20, the Power Points recovery rate table last line starts with "Max PP: 97+", implying an absolute recovery rate for whatever PP value above this level. Then both recovery rates read "+1 per hour" and "divide time in half", as if they were intended for a scaling progression. Shouldn't that last line be either "Max PP: each +24 | +1 per hour | divide time in half" or "Max PP: 97+ | 5 per hour | 1 per 24 minutes (5 per 2 hours)"?
  5. On page 20, last sentences in the Hit Points paragraph read: "Lost hit points heal naturally at a rate of 1D3 points per game week, though medical attention can speed recovery. See Damage & Healing (page 123)." Combat chapter starts on page 123, but Damage & Healing section actually starts on page 134. Even more specifically, the natural healing and medical care parts the Hit Points paragraph is referring to only starts on page 136.
  6. On page 26, "A list of professions" alphabetical ordering had some strange hiccups (after some last minute renaming?) Occultist and Writer got themselves lost in the middle of the table.
  7. On page 32, "Creating new professions" frame, in the second example (professional translator) there is a list of eleven skills instead of ten (required to build a new profession and default for existing ones).
  8. Not sure where to report a problem about the Handouts pack, so I picked up this thread (with character sheets and other free stuff) rather than the BRUGE Corrections Thread. Moderators please do correct me if I'm wrong. Talking about weapons, armors and shields, be it primitive, historic, modern or advanced, the Handouts pack is lacking the Historic Melee Weapons found in CHA2036 on page 172. Being the only table left out, I'm quite convinced it's an omission rather than a choice. Just in case Chaosium go for a correction round on all those useful free docs.
  9. On page 22, "Wealth" section ends with "(...) a brief description of each wealth level is on page 30." and should instead refer to "page 26".
  10. On page 23, "Skill category bonuses (option), Continued" frame, "Skill Bonus Table" table: last line readibility could improve a lot with slightly wider columns and "±1% / 1 or 2 point(s)" on one single line. Also unsure why the table is labeled "Skill Bonus Table" rather than simply "Skill Bonus", as any other table omits the redundancy.
  11. Thanks for your help. Problem solved (sort of) in the meantime. I am using both SumatraPDF (useless 'cause unable to display/use form fields/buttons) and some PDF-XChange products from Tracker Software editor who gave pretty good results, safe for the two exceptions above. Then I bought the BRUGE system today and found that I could download more recent versions of the 8 PC/NPC/mounts empty/fillable sheets through my account/order. These latter releases are working great and have replaced the itch.io free pack with success. TLDR: character sheets from the itch.io free pack (April) are not up-to-date and some might be buggy. Recent ones from Chaosium client accounts (May) are flawless. Just in case someone at Chaosium wants to update the BRP free pack. To whom it may concern. YMMV. No animals were harmed in the writing of this comment. È pericoloso sporgersi.
  12. Can't tag all three "Thanks", "Like" and "Helpful" on @Scotty's quick reply but this is how I feel. Thanks a lot for your precise answers and for so many clarifications also. OMW to the store!
  13. Hi BRPers. I discovered BRP a couple of weeks ago (after a lifetime of mainly D&D/d20 play) and was very happy to have done so precisely at the same time BRUGE had just been published and was heading to the printer. Newbie question: I went around the forums a bit but I would like a confirmation before ordering online. I got it that buying the PDF grants a coupon for the incoming hardcover, which I intend to buy later on. I got it also that the coupon is available only when buying directly from Chaosium store and not from DTRPG. Can someone please confirm this is ok also for Europe (France [Breizh!]), since I read (where?) that for some products, only DTRPG PODs were available for EU customers? Will Chaosium ship to EU once physical BRUGE is available? Even "newbier" question (and not even RPG related, sorry): what exactly is a "watermarked" PDF? Is this only a DTRPG option or Chaosium's also? I have no intent of "broadcasting" the product I buy, but will I be able to save the PDF on my PC, my laptop, my tablet and whatever [device/IP address/MAC address] I could get in the near future? Sorry for the silly question but I've seen too much sillier policies and DRM implementations in the recent years. Thanks twice!
  14. The Character Sheet (Fillable) seems to have a bug on its "Reset" & "Background" buttons : do nothing but some stars showing on and off. And the Character Sheet with Hit Locations (Blank) has a... typo (rather than a bug) since it displays a (useless) "Reset" button. Am I the only one with these glitches (might then be linked to my PDF editor, still displaying other sheets OK though)? It seems quite strange that noone reported after a month time. I dig these sheets and the recent handouts, BTW, thanks MOB!
