Hi Iain

Just a couple of brief points

Iain Smith wrote:
It didn't take as long as I expected.  I've added the XML file to CVS. I 
haven't made a
complete list of changes this time since there were far too many changes.  I 
have,
however, compiled a list of errata, footnotes and concerns:

sect51: "1 Pistol" -> "One Pistol" (errata - consistency)

Shouldn't this just read "Pistol"?

There's an awful lot of typos in this book, I notice!

sect111: Should the weapon item checks include the CCS bonus to identify them 
as weapons
as in section 22? i.e. "Hammer (2)", "Baseball Bat (2)", "Fire Axe (3)"

Personally, I think that might just be confusing.

sect125: "frustratedly" isn't a true word.  Should this be replaced with 
"frustrated",
i.e. "'It's no good,' you say, frustrated."

or "in frustration"?

sect150: "gullys" vs "gulleys" (again)

PA has opted for"gulley" in every instance, for consistency.

sect171: "gunsmoke" is not a true word, leave as is, or replace with "gun smoke" ??

In Book 1 (way back) Section 38 we altered woodsmoke to wood smoke.

Phew!
