[QUOTE="Wincenworks, post: 9057220, member: 7038835"] Okay, got myself a copy of the 3rd 1st Edition of Goblinz. Those Pesky Goblinz: A Role-Playing Game by Justin LaNasa. Main updates I have noted on first pass through it: [LIST] [*]Now an OSR Games LLC product instead of a TSR LLC product [*]Now a "supplement" but there is no information on what it's supposed to supplement [*]Allegedly edited by both Mick McArt and Jeff Leason now [*]Disclaimers now claims "Names, characters, places, and incidents are a product of the author's imagination. Locales and public names are sometimes used for atmospheric purposes. Any resemblance to actual people, living or dead, or to businesses, companies, events, institutions, or locales is completely coincidental. The author has represented and warranted full ownership and/or legal right to publish all materials in this book." (Book still clearly has references to Justin, Duck, Ernie/Gary, and Don Semora in it) [*]Comically bad typos in Justin's foreword letter fixed [*]Carrion Crawlers are now "Carcass Crawlers" - there is no description of them anywhere in the book and no rules/stats for them [*]Grammar disaster in the Pivot Points section removed by removing limit on PP [*]And absurdly bad formatting error in one spell description was fixed [*]Severed limbs are now "rebonded" instead of "rebounded" by Troll Regeneration [*]Character sheet and an illustration have swapped pages [*]Stein is now spelled correctly (once... not consistently) [*]Pyre is spelt correctly in the location description (not in the title) [*]All NPCs in the module now have AC's and consistent listing styles [*]Different (non-goblin type) armours now have different movement speeds [*]TSR-Hobbies.com link has been removed off the back cover [/LIST] It's still full of obvious mistakes and inconsistencies, references to D&D rules, unplayable due to omissions and contradicting information. It also doesn't seem to have had a proper spellcheck - let alone anything that warrants an "edit" so may just have had Duck's name added for clout. Going to do a changelog at some point. [/QUOTE]
