Better use the free time I have. I have updated the 04WotW with corrected
*ne from the Changes List, and some other stuff that was missing. I also
added The Passing of the Shianti, the epilogue from LWC Newsletter #7. It
is as of yet only reachable from the TOC. Shall we link to it from Section
360 somehow? I guess we should put a reference to the source there somewhere
too.
Don't feel too guilty Simon :-) Some nonexistent editor at Century
Hutchinson is the one to blame...
The books (also readable, but not downloadable, from the online Editor's
Companion):

And these are the new additions to the Changes List:
(er) 04wotw title: THE WORLD OF LONE WOLF -> <em>The World of Lone Wolf</em>
(ft) 04wotw gamerulz: What happens to an existing CS score? Footnote
similar to in 03btng (but note that WP and EP are covered already): "This
section of the rules implies that you must re-pick your COMBAT SKILL even
though you may have already completed a previous adventure. This is
without precedent in other books and therefore appears to be a mistake. In
order to preserve rule consistency among the books, you may choose to
retain your COMBAT SKILL score."
(ft) 04wotw powers: Add a footnote about choosing Powers similar to in
03btng: "The wording of this section of the rules seems to indicate--if
read literally--that you may choose your set of Lesser Magicks again if
you have completed a previous adventure. This is without precedent in
other books. In order to preserve consistency with other books, you should
not choose your Lesser Magicks again. If you currently master five Lesser
Magicks, you may choose one additional Lesser Magick from the list. If you
already master six Lesser Magicks, you keep these. If you choose Alchemy
as a new Lesser Magick, or you do not master the Lesser Magick of Alchemy
but you have selected the Higher Magick of Theurgy, you also receive a
Herb Pouch with contents, as detailed in the Equipment section." [tw:
damn, this got a bit longwinded.]
(ft) 04wotw equipmnt: Add a footnote about carrying over old equipment,
like in 03btng: "If you have completed a previous adventure, you keep all
equipment you had at the end of that adventure. You do not receive any new
equipment, unless you have just selected Alchemy as your sixth Lesser
Magick, or you do not master the Lesser Magick of Alchemy but you have
selected the Higher Magick of Theurgy, in which case you receive a Herb
Pouch with contents as indicated in this section."
(ft) 04wotw equipmnt: Add a bookmark about the Herb Pouch similar to in
03btng: "If you have mastered the Lesser Magick of Alchemy or the Higher
Magick of Theurgy and therefore have a Herb Pouch, you may choose to keep
potions, vials, or ingredients in either the Herb Pouch or your Backpack.
All other Backpack Items must be kept in your Backpack."
(er) 04wotw equipmnt: If you have chosen Alchemy -> If you have chosen
Alchemy or Theurgy
(er) 04wotw equipmnt #1: [tw: Done!]
(cn) 04wotw equipmnt: Un-paragraph the Alchemy equipment list
(er) 04wotw 1 #2: [tw: There is no such fault! See new addition instead.]
(er) 04wotw 1 #3: [tw: Done!]
(ce) 04wotw 1: speak again. -> speak again.' [tw: Already added to errata.]
(??) 04wotw 5 #1: [tw: Right you are, I don't understand why I added this
one. Rejected.]
(??) 04wotw 9 #4: [tw: If there was any standard order we'd have, I think
it should be: 1) Higher Magicks 2) Lesser Magicks 3) Items 4) Wizard's
Staff 5) Nothing (i.e. spend no WP). But I think Jon's latest command was
to not change unless really needed for some reason?]
(??) 04wotw 25: (1) coil of Rope -> Coil of Rope [tw: also]
(er) 04wotw 34: The Pestle and Mortar are Backpack Items -> The Pestle
and Mortar and the Tinderbox are Backpack Items, [tw: Seems odd that
everything except the Tinderbox is accounted for.]
(er) 04wotw 38 #5: [tw: Done!]
(er) 04wotw 47 #1: [tw: I was also thinking about that too, but
"Agarashi" is not used anywhere else in any of the GS books.]
(er) 04wotw 142 #2: [tw: There is a tendency to put first a Lesser
Magick, then the corresponding Higher Magick, then the next Lesser Magick,
etc. There are also other variants, like in this section...]
(er) 04wotw 201 #4: [tw: Done!]
