D6 Powers Errata

[Alric]

I think I spotted a minor error in the book. On joule's character sheet (page 113, or 115 of the PDF) her physique is 3D but her Physical Damage is 1D, shouldn't her Damage be 2D?

depends on if you round up or down..lol

The rules say round up, and they give an example of 3D giving 2D damage. Unless I missed something somewhere...

[Jerry D. Grayson]

Nope, you are correct. her strength damage should be 2D

[prophet118]

heh, i generally round down in games..lol

I usually go with the HERO method, .5 rounds in the character's favor. :D

[prophet118]

depends on what style of game im doing, grim and gritty gets rounded down, heroic gets rounded up

Hey, not being negative at all.. When errata is found, do you update that info in whatever places are selling your product in ebook form??? And if so, is the fact that you are getting an updated version listed in the book??
Thanks!

[prophet118]

usually companies just make an errata pdf file (or word file) and post it on their sites...

continually updating books is expensive (even PDF books)

plus you'd have to make the pdf update a free update, or risk pissing ALOT of people off.

hence why errata pages are typically made public information

When the book is updated with all the errata everyone who purchased the PDF will get a revised version. I didn’t think about putting a version number on it but thanks for bring up the question. I guess I should.

I’m hoping to have the printed book out by May btw and it should have any little blemishes ironed out.

Please don't think I was being negative by asking about errata. What I have seen of the book on the example is awesome. I was just curious how you were going to list errata and if errata would be incorporated into future printings of the book, both pdf and paper. I think the idea of having a "version" number listed in the book works well. I know WEG does it for the d6 books. This way, you can always make sure that you can tell what version you have. So when errata is published, you know how to reference which version it came from. Again, I only bring this up because it seems to work well for WEG.
