I haven't managed to spend as much time as I'd hoped on this, but now I have
at least updated the changes list for War of the Wizards with all the recent
comments and a batch of my own. The next step will be to fix all the
non-controversial issues and upload an updated version of the book.

The Editor's Companion (where the downloads list needs to be updated with
the 04wotw files!):

Editor Pack, for those using the Editor's Companion locally:

My added comments:

(??) 04wotw title #1:  [tw: ok!]
(??) 04wotw gamerulz #2:  [tw: I am not sure of the Staff can be used as a
normal weapon? But OK, it does say it looks like a normal quarterstaff and
is stronger than all known metals, so I guess it should do. Change then
"use your Wizard's Staff" -> "use the magical properties of your Wizard's
Staff" and and add "You can still use your Wizard's Staff in combat as a
normal weapon, but you must deduct 6 points from your COMBAT SKILL."
either to this footnote or as a new footnote in Magical Powers, Wizards'
Staff?]
(??) 04wotw powers #17:  [tw: OK fixed above.]
(??) 04wotw equipmnt #4:  [tw: OK fixed above.]
(??) 04wotw 9 #4:  [tw: I'll go through the book and see how many changes
this scheme would require... (and then there's all the other books... but
I remember on of the two first actually adhering to this scheme already).]
(??) 04wotw 15 #5:  [tw: OK, but... hm.]
(ft) 04wotw 15: Explain that the first choice means you use Theurgy. [tw:
I have no creative idea here. Anyone?]
(??) 04wotw 47 #1:  [tw: OK changed above and new footnote issue added. ]
(ft) 04wotw 47: The term <cite>Agarashi</cite> is not used in any other
place in the <cite>Worls of Lone Wolf</cite> books, but it is used
elsewhere for the monstrous servants of Agarash the Damned.   [tw: That
footnote really sucks. Better ideas anyone?]
(??) 04wotw 99 #1:  [tw: Fixed.]
(??) 04wotw 108 #1:  [tw: Section 170 has "If you have the Magical Power
of Enchantment...". I don't quite see what you mean?]
(??) 04wotw 142 #2:  [tw: Rejected, then. The original here follows "my
scheme".]
(??) 04wotw 175 #1:  [tw: I don't know if we should include it in the
rules sections, but we could add footnotes in the places where you are
told to use WP for a spell with no option to abstain. I don't think it's
too many places actually; most are probably in the second half of 02tfc.
Note that by only allowing it in these places, it is still possible to get
negative WP when faced with Kleasas or Mother Magris.]
(??) 04wotw 180 #1:  [tw: Fixed. Nope, human error.]
(??) 04wotw 216 #1:  [tw: Urgh, the Shadakine have eyes like female
pupils? Any of the others, but not "pupiless"!]
(??) 04wotw 291 #1:  [tw: OK, removing issue 2.]
(??) 04wotw 293 #1:  [tw: I really think "begins" sounds better here, but
some other cases in this book: sect139 "The horde stop", sect174 "The
horde falters", sect221 "The horde comes". I'd change 139.]
