Wed 15 Jun 2022, 20:01

Hi!

Please use this thread to report any typos or errors in Chapter 4 (Solo Rules) of the Beta PDF of the Book of Beasts. Guidelines to remember:
  • Before reporting an error, please check and see if it already has been reported, and if so, don't report it again.
  • If you want to discuss or feedback something that is not a clear error, don't do it here - instead, please start a new forum post the specific issue.
Please report your feedback no later than July 15 2022. After this date, we are likely not able to make any further changes.

Thank you!
Fria Ligan

p165 — The last sentence of the chapter introduction reads, “Then let’s get stuck in!” Was this intentional? Or am I just missing some context? I don’t understand the sentence.

page 168, the word "start" is broken by a space:

"You can st art in a hex that is tied to your kin using the map on page 46 of..."

On page 166 the punctuation and wording of the following paragraph seems awkward to me as a native English speaker:

Companions should rarely roll for
themselves, instead giving a help die
in many situations, except when Journeying,
when they can (and should) roll
independently.

The following is more clear to me:

Companions should rarely roll for themselves.
Instead, in many situations they can give a help die.
Except when Journeying, when they can (and should) roll independently.

Page 169 uses the archaic word "whilst". It is the only place in the book where the word "while" is not used.

Page 171 - redundant weather table. There is another weather table in the book on page 153.

page 169 right column first paragraph. "If you roll 2+ successes, you gain advantage on the next roll relating to the Encounter."

Advantage? What is that? That isn't part of the Forbidden Lands rules nor is it explained anywhere;.

Author here. It's a British English phrase which means to start doing something with enthusiasm. I've provided FL with an alternate phrase.

Whoops, yep it should say "you gain +1 on the next roll". Good catch.

Page 171 - redundant weather table. There is another weather table in the book on page 153.
Also both weather tables are different for some reason.
