I've added the small illustrations for The Deathlord of Ixia:

However, it seems that somehow at least one of the large illustrations
are in the wrong place (cf. Illustrations 5). Does anyone have a list
of where they should be handy?
Ill 1. - Section 14
Ill 2. - Section 24
Ill 3. - Section 45
Ill 4. - Section 67
Ill 5. - Section 69 (not a "proper" large pic, but a combination lock)*
Ill 6. - Section 77
Ill 7. - Section 89
Ill 8. - Section 121
Ill 9. - Section 140
Ill 10. - Section 153
Ill 11. - Section 165
Ill 12. - Section 181
Ill 13. - Section 195
Ill 14. - Section 207
Ill 15. - Section 229
Ill 16. - Section 243
Ill 17. - Section 264
Ill 18. - Section 300
Ill 19. - Section 310
Ill 20. - Section 340
Ill 21. - Section 347
* Illustration 5 is really a small illustration, but has a caption and a numeral
against it (Illustration V). I don't think there's any need for this; I'd
imagine it was an error on the part of the editor. We already have it marked as
a Small Illustration in the book (Section 69). If we don't reinstate the
superfluous caption from Ill 5 ("Three raised blocks, divided into equal squares
and numbered except for one . . .'), we can then keep Illustrations 6-21 as
5-20, IMHO, though we should definitely mark this in the Errata section.
Because of the caption for Ill 5, the captions are wrong from 6 -> 21. The
missing caption (Ill 21) reads: "The golden-winged escorts come diving down to /
attack you with beak and claw." If we remove Caption 5, then shift captions 6 -
21 "back one", that should fix the problems. I think. (An alternative would be
to keep everything as it is, promote Section 69 to a large Illustration, then
rename it to Ill5.gif, and rename Ill 5 - > 20.gif as 6 -> 21.gif.)
Looking good, though. I can't wait for this to be released; it's one of my least
favourite Lone Wolf adventures! >_< Looking forward to working on 01HH and
18DotD quite a lot, though.
