Dozens of typos, ommissions, rules that are vague, improper or not even given, or complete and utter failure to properly convert AEG RPG mechanics to d20 are rampant! These are killing the public's enthusiasm for your products! It's like you don't even CARE about the quality of most of the d20 products you are publishing (Spycraft and Rokugan excepted). Why do you keep raising prices? The extra money should be going into paying for an EDITOR who knows what he's doing!That said, I do find your d20 products to have a lot of good ideas in them (some rough, some polished). I am upset because your products are not living up to their full potential. Case in point being the new Swashbuckling Adventures book. There are dozens and dozens of errors in this book (mostly failure to convert 7th Sea rules to d20, the whole point of the book!). Fighting styles mention weaknesses an opponent can exploit, then fail to provide rules for them. Many rules are improperly/incompletely converted between systems. This book could have been as great as Spycraft given proper editing and a little more time. Swashbuckling Adventures will doubtless leave a sour taste in the mouth of the gaming public, despite the fact that it is a treasure trove of crunchy bits in between the errors, and turn gamers away from 7th Sea (at least as a viable d20 setting). Please hire a new editor who knows what he's doing! I shouldn't have to go through your books with a fine tooth comb to weed out mistakes or house rule them to make them work properly. That is AEG's job, and that is what I am paying you guys for when I buy your products: A professionally edited, polished product loaded with great ideas and crunchy bits. So far, you've only got the first half right (and even your track record there is a bit spotty with the various one word books).</blockquote>
