Rick Meints Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 All of the above two sets of edits have been entered. The extra text in the intros is text Bill Keyes wrote, but it got cut from the final product. Thanks for all these typo catches. 1 Quote Hope that Helps,Rick Meints - Chaosium, Inc.

I interpret this so, that we can expect an updated version of the RuneMasters PDF file. Is that correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
