OK, Jon, here are the rest of the ones I spotted on my read-through.

One down, four to go (including my own). Excellent.

(er) 17tdoi 14: the mass of undead who -> the mass of undead that [so: maybe?]
(er) 17tdoi Ill5: The Deathlord Ixiataaga -> Deathlord Ixiataaga
(er) 17tdoi 195: a hundred leagues -> a hundred yards [so: 300 miles seems too
large a distance, I think! Or is this a nautical term I am unfamiliar with?]
(er) 17tdoi 220: Dessi stone -> Dessi Stone [so: as per the other occurrence in
this section]
(er) 17tdoi 350: grave news I'm -> grave news, I'm

Agreed.

(er) 17tdoi ill1: A horde . . . leap -> A horde . . . leaps
(er) 17tdoi 14: A horde . . . leap -> A horde . . . leaps
(er) 17tdoi 196: a row of pillars topple -> a row of pillars topples

Collective noun acting as individuals. No changes.

(er) 17tdoi 22: King -> king [so: several times ???]
(er) 17tdoi 83: King -> king [so: maybe?]

The title, King, is on the approved for capitalization in the Manual of Style.

(er) 17tdoi 95: Kai weapon skill -> Kai Weaponskill

I think this one is generic.

(ft) 17tdoi 123: [so: In this instance, does 0=10?]

Footnoted.

(er) 17tdoi 207: a troop . . . are -> a troop . . . is

I'll go for this one. It's pretty subjective, I know.

(ft) 17tdoi 220: [so: should we footnote that this is a permanent enhancement to
the Weapon and will last through subsequent books?]

Footnoted.
