Correction made and I am sending the file for uploading. The miss-print will be a collective item in a few minutes.

The footnotes appears to be missing from my "Secrets of Pharazia" article. Ordinarily I would wait to submit a note when the call for errata comes around, but in this case one of the footnotes gives credit to NeoTiamat's "The Domain of the Endless Word" for the good ideas I stole. If there is any way to restore that acknowledgement, at least, I would appreciate it!

Note to self: Don't do footnotes next year.

Please make no mistake, though. This issue looks GOOD, and from the quick scan that I've allowed myself to do thus far, it's got some lovely juicy bits to it.

The best issue yet! And fantastic work as always Mephisto, love seeing the facistic horror and mad science of Falkovnia. I have few ideas to give if you interested, involving attempts to make giant soliers, and a mutant-roc that doubles as a dragonlance connection.
I also love the Markovia section, it address all the little stuff I always thought about the domain (settlers in the wilderness, abandoned villages, ect).

I particularly love the little details about Markov, like the books and his vanity. It really makes him more real, giving him these little quirks and hobbies inbetween the brutal horror. More darklords need things like that (I myself always like to think Ivana is actually a particularly skilled hortculturalist, and actual pens books of it under a fake name)

Thanks I am glad you like it! Although best issue is a bit of an overstatement :lucas:

Please do I have already some new inventions that didn't make it to this years issue.
My main idea was having the science subtitute magical potions but with a bad aspects as addiction or overdose, etc. Anyway militarism and drugs usually go hand in hand

And the best thing is that in this issue you have many Markovias to choose from.

And just as the nice Doctor Mordenheim had finished charging the cattle prod, it is released. :gabrielle:

Slowly working my way through, I very much like Chibiloft!.
It reminds me of the old Nodwick cartoons scattered throughout the old Dungeon magazines. A humorous break from lots of reading.

Wait a minute....page 85, 'Heraldry of the Richemuloese City Watch Companies', all the shields are blank!

Ohhhh Doctor, I appears I may need it after all... :P
Someone sent me a postcard picture of the earth. On the back they had written, "Wish you were here."

Yes they are I didn't have time to finish them all so decided to place them as such until the final version of the netbook is released after the errata corrections in one or two months.

You can always create your own though
