Are you fixing these issues in the xml, Jon?

No, though I can if we need me to.

If you could deal with the reported issues and implementing the Mongoose/footnotes things it would be helpful. I've started a "necessary home improvement project" (i.e. I've got to replace some radiators and a leaking water tank) that's going to take up time I might otherwise have been able to use for the Project. ;-)

As for the comment period, I

I'd prefer that people have something stable to review during a
comment period so they're not chasing a moving target. (Is that a
mixed metaphor?) If possible, let's get this review of what Mongoose
has done out of the way and then start the comment period. We could do
this for all of Mongoose's published books, or just 1-7 for now. I'd
prefer to just get it all done.

From that point of view, I see what you mean. I just didn't want to put off anyone who might have a few things listed and ready to post

I can list the Mongoose vs. footnotes stuff for Books 3-7 tomorrow

4: Added "The sword is fashioned from the rib of a Kalkoth and its pearlescent blade is as hard as tempered steel. If you wish to take this Bone Sword, record it on your Action Chart as Bone Sword +1(K). It will add +1 to your COMBAT SKILL when you use it in combat anywhere in Kalte. If this weapon is used in any other territory then it loses its +1 bonus and reverts to a normal sword."

8: Added a new second paragraph: "(You may wish to note the fact that you have put on this oil on your Action Chart. However, it does not take the space of any item and only affects you for the duration of this adventure)." Again, incorrect positioning of period.

10: Added "You may only examine each liquid once." before "Which one do you wish to examine?"

16: Added "You may choose which Backpack Items to delete. If you have only one item in your Backpack, then this single item has been destroyed."

18: Added "(Remember to erase this Weapon or weapon-like Special Item from your Action Chart.)"

26: No change.

32: Added "If the earlier fight listed only two Kalkoth (because you crept up on the Kalkoth and killed one), ignore Kalkoth 3 in this fight."

41: Added "(You may still keep the Blue Stone Triangle--you need not erase it from your Action Chart.)"

45: Added to the end of Option 1 "(This Silver Key must be one that you have recorded as a Special Item. If you have a silver key that is a Backpack Item, it does not qualify here.)"

55: Change last sentence of second paragraph to "This COMBAT SKILL loss is permanent and will affect you for the rest of your life."

61: No change.

79: No change.

84: Added "(You may record this Special Item as a Blue Stone Triangle which you wear around your neck.)"

88: Deleted " at any time".

91: added "Make a note of the fact that you have applied this Baknar Oil. It does not take up the space of an item in your Backpack, and its effects will only last for as long as you are in Kalte.)"

132: Added "If you currently posses enough food for 1 Meal, you may now consume it in order to avoid this ENDURANCE point deduction."

138: Alter Option 2 to "If you lose any ENDURANCE points during this combat (even when attempting to evade), turn immediately to 66."

139: Add to the end of Option 1 "(The Laumspur Potion referred to here is a special concentrated form of the healing herb. A regular Laumspur Potion does not qualify in this instance.)"

157: Added "Remember to erase this potion from your Action Chart." to the end of the first paragraph.

263: Appended to Option 2 "(Even when conducting an extra combat round for evading, you are still subject to turning to Section 66 if you should lose any ENDURANCE points.)"

303: Added "(you must erase the Silver Key you just used from your Action Chart)" after "disappears into the lock".

308: Change "Helmet" to "Silver Helm" in first sentence. Added/revised "If you are already wearing another Helmet, you must discard it if you wish to keep this new find. If worn during combat, this magically crafted helmet will increase your COMBAT SKILL by 2 points."

350: Altered "the Daziarn: a portal of total darkness, the door of an eternal prison from which there can be no escape" to "a Shadow Gate. It is a portal of total darkness, a door to an eternal prison from where none have ever returned". Altered "You are the avenger of his crimes, and it is you who cast the wretched traitor into the limbo of Daziarn. Your mission is now completed. You have survived the caverns of Kalte and freed Sommerlund from the menace of Vonotar." to "You are the avenger of his crimes, and by ancient rite, you are the one who casts the wretched traitor through the Shadow Gate, sending him into the place which lies beyond this dread portal: the limbo of the Daziarn Plane."

Any takers to audit the Mongoose editions of Books 4-15? Anyone?!
