Would people be interested in "links" in the .pdf. for instance if a rule refered to the Dexterity attribute, you could click the word Dexterity and it would jump to the Dexterity section of the Attributes and skills chapter.



I think this falls into the, "looks good on paper" but bad in practical application. This will screw up the appearance of printed material as well. My vote is no..

I concur. Lots of little blue linkies throughout a text (esp. a hardcopy) would be offputting, IMHO.

Perhaps offer two versions; one with links and one "printer-friendly" without. I can see where having the links would be annoying in hard copy, but also very useful when working from a laptop screen.

One week left until errata closes.

REUP Mk II should be available the 2nd or 3rd of Feb.

p. 6 first paragraph in "If you already own Star War" box: "The goal is to make the game just as easy to learn, but to update to content to account for all of the additions in both the Cannon and Expanded Star Wars Universe since the last publication... way back in 1997." Shouldn't that "to" be "the"?

p. 352 first line of Blaster Pistol, Heavy: "A blaster pistol is a compromise:" needs the word 'heavy' inserted between 'A' and 'blaster'.

Side note, this REUP edition is absolutely gorgeous and well-layed out. Great job guys!

Just found this, but one thing I noticed was in the intro to the creatures section, the name Na'al didn't get replaced when he's telling the story about falling in the pit.

Great work, though. Just what I've been looking for. Can't wait to see the next version.

Thank you everyone for submitting errata and ideas. REUP Mk I I will hopefully be released later today.

WE ARE STILL COLLECTING ERRATA

So don't stop submitting. There will be NO Mk III but we intend to maintain an errata file which we will update from time to time.

p.28 Sixth Sense is missing from the list of Advantages and Disadvantages.

p. 30 Sixth Sense's 2D cost is missing a minus sign (as I assume it is an advantage).

P. 78 "Example: The player characters are are confronted by a nasty looking group of thugs. Bill is the gamemaster."

P.81, 1st column, 2nd sentence of Move action: "The gamemaster should call only for a roll if the terrain is challenging or the maneuvering complex." The underlined words should be reversed.

p247, 1st column, 3rd sentence of the 1st paragraph under 'The Clone Wars':
"On the desolate planed of Geonosis" - word should be 'planet'

p247, 1st column, 4th sentence of the 1st paragraph under 'The Clone Wars':
"Many Jedi were killed on Geonosis, but just as may were thrust into" - word should be 'many'

p250, 1st column, 2nd sentence of the 1st paragraph under 'An Empire at its Peak'"
"Its grasp on the galaxy is like an iron fist" - change 'a' to 'an' and add 'fist'

No problem, just putting these up as I notice them while reading. All in all I'm amazed how little errata have jumped out at me given the massive amount of text. So far I've only found minor stuff that I would expect in any publication this large.

p255, 1st column, last sentence under 'Astrogation':
"Therefore a particular beings acccount" - add an apostrophe to 'being's'

p257, 1st column, last sentence under 'Expansion Region':
"This spirit is highly treasured by the residence of the Expansion Region." - word should be 'residents'

p257, 2nd column, 2nd paragraph under 'Mid-Rim' (both sentences);
This one is not so much errata as a possible clarification. As currently written, I am not certain that these sentences convey what they were intended to very clearly. I think the intent is to say that the Empire feared the region would become infested with Rebels but those fears were not born out. I think a better phrasing (assuming I understand the intended meaning) to convey this would be :
"Though Imperial strategists feared the region could provide suitable locations for Rebel bases, the area remained a stronghold of Imperial support even a full decade after the Battle of Endor."

p258, 1st column, 2nd sentence under 'Outer Rim Territories':
"The Outer Rims Territories is character zed by lightly-settled" - word should be 'characterized'

p258, 1st column, first sentence under 'Tion Hegemony':
"The Tion Hegemony is an outlaying region of space bordererd by" - word should be 'outlying'
