Hi
The following has come to light after a report on the forums.
In Book 8 Section 308 there is a sentence which says: "Unless you possess the Magnakai Discipline of
Psi-screen you must reduce your COMBAT SKILL by 2 points at the beginning of every round you fight
this creature." We have footnoted this as:
"It seems peculiar that you are instructed to reduce COMBAT SKILL at the beginning of every round if
you do not have Psi-screen. This loss would be cumulative so that during the first round you fight
with 2 fewer COMBAT SKILL points, the second round with 4 fewer points, the third with 6 fewer, etc.
This loss is certainly intended to be for the duration of this Combat only—not permanently—since Joe
Dever always makes special note of instances where you permanently lose COMBAT SKILL. It is possible
that this penalty is an error, and that you are meant to lose 2 ENDURANCE points rather than COMBAT
SKILL points at the beginning of every round."
The Mongoose edition changes "COMBAT SKILL" to "ENDURANCE". Should we go ahead and make the same
change, dumping the footnote in the process?
