I've been asked for the errata and miscellany of the Castles and Ruins
Book. I tried to refer the requests to older issues of this very e-zine,
only to find that I never posted them. The following list is complete
with one exception. The price lists in that book have been a source of
great amusement to some and great annoyance to others. I have tried to
straighten out that list and correct some inconsistencies that creeped
into it. The updated price list is posted as a separate article. Hopefully,
this will help a few people out.
Page
14 Section 2.3 Arcane Companion - Refers to Arcane Concepts in Appendix
(and there is no appendix due to size restrictions).
Page
18 Section 3.3 Apothecary - Look at his skill categories - specifically
the Poisonical category. I'll leave you the reader to figure this one
out.
Page
73/76 Public Opinion/Foreign Relations Chart - Somehow this was omitted.

Page
103 Boarder Awareness Chart should read Border Awareness
Chart
Page
119 Sapping Maneuver Chart - remove references to feast costs. They
have little effect on the tunneling process, though may improve digger
morale.
Page
131 Miscellaneous Chart - Adjust tabs for Tar.
Page
132 New Heading for Animals. Should be MR, MPH, and Manuever Bonus
instead of weight, size and production time.
Page
133 Siege Engines - Numbers under the size column should be under
Production Time. SL should be under Notes column
Page
137/146 Construction Charts - All of them have a common error in
that the row for 15,000 and 25,000 square feet all read as if they were
5,000 square feet. This error only effects the size, all of the other
columns are still correct.
Page
170 Perimeter Wardings - Fix tab for area of effect (Caster).
Page
182 Critical and Fumble Tables were omitted. I'd give them to you
if I had them, but John Curtis had someone else calculate those tables.
I never saw them.
