133: No change (though, see similar situation in Mongoose Book 3)
How about this: "Even when evading combat, you must still turn to 17
if you lose any ENDURANCE."
Sounds good.
245: Deleted "Your other man is also now beyond all help."
But what if you came to 245 from 127 where you have that extra man.
Does this solve one problem and create another?
Possibly...though I must admit I'm not up on how many men you are
assumed to have in various Sections.
According to Section 178 (also linked from 127): "You drag the loathsome
creature away from the ranger only to find that the man is dead."
On reflection, I think that copying Mongoose and deleting the offending
text lessens the inconsistency, so I find the change preferable--a man
described as 'pinned beneath an Elix' not being mentioned again is
easily inferred to have died; conversely, finding out explicitly that
he's dead, losing the other man, and then (apparently) being told of a
third also being beyond help is confusing.
