MOB Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) This thread is to catch any typos or errors spotted in the Chapter 3 Preview of the 13th Age Glorantha book, recently sent to all backers of the Kickstarter . Please note them here, quoting the page number, the error, and the suggested correction. Cheers, MOB Edited November 9, 2017 by MOB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOB Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 One thing to note about the preview files on Backerkit: the decision to share it with Glorantha Source Backers made it look like they are getting a copy of a GSB layout file, but that's not correct. Both the 4.6 megabyte files added to BackerKit now are the Chapter 3 layout from 13th Age in Glorantha. If you're a backer for both, you'll get the file twice.

M Helsdon Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 39 minutes ago, jajagappa said: no Water? True. When bug hunting, often finding one bug means you overlook those in proximity - a common psychological 'blindness' when reviewing material. This is one of the reasons no one reviewer ever catches everything. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
