The pilot was erroneously given a +10 to the Scientific/Analytical * Engineering category. While they probably have insights to share in this area, they do not have the background in physics to warrant this bonus. They do frequently have to tinker with their craft, however. The +10 should be applied to the Scientific/Analytical * Technical category.

Two of the professions have psychic costs which are slightly off.

 The Recon profession should have the following progression:
   
Psychic * Category 1: 10/10
   
Psychic * Category 2: 12/12
   
Psychic * Category 3: 25
   
Psychic * Category 4: 50
   
Psychic * Category 5: 75
   
Psychic * Category 6: 100

 

The Technician should have the following progression:
   
Psychic * Category 1: 6/6/6
   
Psychic * Category 2: 8/8
   
Psychic * Category 3: 10/10
   
Psychic * Category 4: 12/12
   
Psychic * Category 5: 25
   
Psychic * Category 6: 50

The following critical tables have the wrong data for their results: Blaster, Burn Through, Laser, Plasma, Stunner. The proper versions will be printed in later printings, as well as Blaster Law.  Meanwhile, they are available for download here:

Races with a natural attack get the natural attack skill as everyman. The Falar, Kagoth, the Tulgar and the Valiesians can develop natural attack as a everyman skill.
   
The Kagoth receive body development as an everyman skill.
   
The Falanar receives the Species Standard language, not human. Also, TransSpecLang is not a language (it is editorial dross). Any time you see TransSpecLang, replace with Species Standard.
   
Any reference in any books to Jeronan as a language should be changed to Royal Tongue.
   
Tulgar receive a +25 to tracking due to their keen sense of smell.

The Bounty Hunter training package has incorrect values. They should be:
Criminal       20
Explorer      26
Pilot            26
Psychic       35
Recon         20
Scientist      32
Soldier        25
Technician   30

A clarification: All dates in this book are in base 10.

A clarification: Weapon skills are grouped by weapon type. All blaster pistols, for instance, use the same skill.

There should be a Law skill. It is located in the Tech/Trade • Professional category.

The Map in the book is difficult to use.  For the original map, usable in Campaign Cartographer 2, click here:

In the adolescent skills, Culture Lore should be under Academic Lore.
