Page 168 - "LOCATION: There are many ways to decide
where to start. You can st art in a hex that is
tied to your kin using the map on page 46 of
the Gamemaster’s
Guide, roll for your homeland
in Legends & Adventurers (page 4), or
pick a random hex."

Page 4 in L&A has a Childhood table. In fact, I don't see how you could roll for your homeland anywhere in the L&A. Maybe the author meant to reference the map on page 46 in the GG, although it is not a table you could roll.

Roleplaying social interactions with an entire
village or settlement by yourself can be surprisingly
daunting, especially when you you’re new"

It's in the new printing, check the latest PDF - page 4 in L&A has home region tables.

The one on page 171 can handle cold temperatures in different seasons. I hope that makes the cut!
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.

A bit late to the party, but I'll share a few thoughts as the thread hasn't been locked just yet. Also, thanks for a great book of beasts! I'm trying out the solo rules now and they're opening a lot of doors for me.

p. 172 Yes/No Oracle (applies to Swedish version as well)
I'm a little confused by the high red > low black and high black > low red. Isn't it obvious that high red is more positive than low black and vice versa? Is it rather the other combination that needs to be clarified - low red and low black are both 'maybe' in a sense, and you could emphasize that low red is more positive than low black to clear that up. Or am I missing something? :)

p. 176 Orakel: Personlighetsdrag (Swedish version only)
Det står Samhälle: Red istället för Röd

p. 177 Social interactions (also in Swedish version)
This looks like the rule for shoving big monsters in Gamemaster's Guide, but the scale is new. I'm a bit torn here, but I think maybe it's better to recycle the rule as it is rather than introducing a new table with slightly different numbers? The old rule is perhaps more allowing at three successes, but it would be able to handle if you're trying to convince a demon with Wits 8.

Also I would love to see the home region table in the new L&A printing! I bought the books in a store, so no PDF there.
