One more...the description of Blackapple Brugh on page 202 (there is no page number on 202; deliberate?) currently reads:

"Blackapple is a small, remote village on the edge of the woods that provides a good base town for low level player characters."

"Low level" should probably be hyphenated ("low-level") in order to match the rest of the rules.

Yes, it should.

Yes, it's deliberate. It's a postscript.

Bah. I love my Oxford comma but I don't care much for hyphens... :D

... don't like em-dashes either.

Why are the headers on the last page not set to SoutaneBlack?

The last page doesn't use the standard styles; however, I did intend to fix that.

I'm doing an R124 anyway, so I'll get it done.

Do you mean doing an R125? I just downloaded and checked R124 - Miscellaneous Items effect subtable 1 still has Defense.

No, I meant 124. Didn't think to look at the table. Gah.

Will fix later.

That's what us proofreaders are for. I did a text search in r124. The only remaining occurrences of "defense" that relate to magic items are in the table. Other uses are just talking about general defensive abilities of creatures.

I have a theory: every time someone says "I think this is it" we find something else to fix. But since finding things to fix is good for the quality of the eventual release, I'm going to try to harness the power of the jinx...

I think this is it!
