THE TRAVELLER BOOK (201, 1982)
Page 99, Legal Encounters, second paragraph (correction): The once per day throw to avoid legal encounters should be Law Level or greater, not Law Level or less.
This catches the narrative up with the correction already listed in the errata for Legal Encounters on page 100.

Consolidated CT Errata Kinunir p. 18
According to the corrected design of the Kinunir on Consolidated CT Errata p. 18 ship carries 1x TL 9 10-ton Grav APC at a cost of MCr9.3 which per the note in the Factor column is from Book 2.
CT LBB 2 Starships 1981 2nd edition p. 23 under Vehicles lists GCarrier 8 tons at a cost of Mcr1.0.
CT LBB 3 Worlds and Adventures 1981 2nd edition p. 23 lists the following: GCarrier (8) Cr1,000,000, 8 tons.
Recommend that the entry for the GCarrier be corrected to match CT LBB 3 p. 23 data.
The Kinunir's totals for tons changes to 30.69 and MCr = 1327.1021

Morning PDT jec10,
Thank you for the reply.
I agree that the Kinunir's Grav APC is probably based on the TL-15 Imperial Grav APC from CT Striker Book 3 1981 p. 29. However, the Consolidate CT Errata references CT LBB 2 as the source document for the Kinunir's Grav APC.
Based on the additional information here is another recommendation as a correction for the Kinunir's Grav APC entry on Consolidated CT Errata p. 18:
Description: 12-ton Grav APC
Tons: -12.00
MCr: 5.6097
Crew: 3
Notes: flight
TL: 15
Factor: Striker Book 3
Totals:
Tons: 26.69
MCr: 1329.7924
EPs: +14.5
Crew: 46
Notes: crew
TL: 15
Factor: Agility=1
A third recommendation, and possibly the easiest, would be to add the Kinunir's Grav APC to the Ship's Vehicles Table on CT LBB 5 HG 1980 2nd edition p. 36.
Vehicle: Grav APC
Cost (Cr): 9,300,000
Tons: 10
Tech Level: 9-11
Thank you for spurring me on to dig more deeply and provide additional recommendation.

Consolidated CT Errata Document Errata
Morning PST,
Here is an item that I would like to post here for anyone using the last edition of the Consolidated CT Errata document published by Donald McKinney now an absent friend.
Consolidated CT Errata Document v1.1 02/01/14
HIGH GUARD (308, Book 5, 1980 “second” edition)
In 1981, Adventure 5 – Trillion Credit Squadron was released. The “Rules and Rulings” section (pages 12–16) of Trillion Credit Squadron should be considered official changes to the High Guard rules. In addition, JTAS #15 presented some optional rules for High Guard; the Crew Casualties, Powering Down and Evacuation rules from that article should be considered official and are presented below with modifications to cover other clarifications.
The High Guard Optional Rules are in JTAS #14 pp. 25-27 and not in JTAS #15.
The referenced material in JTAS #15 is TCS Squadron Design II by Kevin Connolly pp. 31-35. Part I of Kevin Connolly's article is in JTAS #14. Kevin Connolly, per JTAS #14 was the winner at Gen Con East.

The following is not listed, as of the Consolidated CT Errata v1.2 (March 23, 2015):
THE TRAVELLER BOOK (201, 1982)
Page 36, Wounding and Death, first column, first paragraph (Correction): Adventurer Two's temporary UPP is now 035777 (not 054777); he is unconscious.
STARTER TRAVELLER (251, 1983)
Rules Booklet:
Page 21, Wounding and Death, second column, third paragraph (Correction): Two's temporary UPP is now 035777 (not 054777); he is unconscious.
*A recap: Adventurer Two's permanent UPP is 777777. The attacker rolls 6, 3, 4. Again, because this is Two's first wounding of the combat, all hits are applied against one characteristic (a die roll applies them against his strength). Adventurer Two's strength is reduced to 0, absorbing the first die (6) and 1 hit from the second (second die is left with 2 remaining hits; temporary UPP is now 077777); the remaining hits from the second die (2 hits) and all of the third die (still 4 hits) are applied randomly to his other two physical characteristics (two more die rolls apply 2 hits to endurance (7-2=5; temporary UPP is now 075777) and 4 hits to dexterity (7-4=3; temporary UPP is now 035777).
I'm sure this has been caught before, but I can't locate a thread for it.
Let me know if i figured this out wrong, so I can edit this post

Where can the most recent version of the errata compendium be found right now?
The first post of this thread. Don kept updating the link.
Thanks. Can someone explain why the example 4G4 limited burn missile is said to have 16 kg of fuel on the page-4 errata but the same missile on the revised table comes in at 13 kg including casing? Am I misunderstanding something?
Oops, that was for the MISSILES IN TRAVELLER supplement. I probably should have mentioned that.

Hello Carlobrand,
Back in 2013 Donald McKinney asked for some help reviewing Special Supplement 3 Missiles. I was one of the volunteers and I was temporarily provided a copy of SS3-R1 that is supposedly part of the CT CD-Rom.
I do vaguely recall a number of things got changed unfortunately, I can not verify if the material got updated on the CD-Rom or in the Consolidated CT Errata document. When the project started I indicated that the material would be deleted from my files after a year. The material on the computer was deleted and the hard copies of the material got burned in a fire pit.
Drat, I knew I should have held onto the material.

Looks to me like an oops for the 16kg value. The chart trues up using the formulas, the 16kg value looks more like a continuous burn formula value, burn times g.
That was my thought. The value doesn't match explanation or table, but the explanation and the table work together properly.
Edit: whup, spoke too soon. Table's giving me Cr100 times G-rating per kilogram for limited burn fuel instead of Cr200 times G-rating per kilogram.
