Hello all,
I recently aquired a copy of FFS that is apparently the first printing - no Mark 1 Mod 1 on the credit page although it does have the corrected page 75. The errata on the net assume that you either have a later printing or have applied errata from Challenge 75. Does anyone here have that errata electronically?
*looks in his copy of FF&S*
Well, I have a little A5-sized leaflet in my copy of the book that has some FF&S errata on the back page (most of the errata in the booklet is for the TNE corebook). I'm assuming it's OK to transcribe the relevant bits here:
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
FIRE FUSION & STEEL ERRATA
19: Transmission price should be in Cr, not MCr.
20: Loaded Weight also includes a full load of fuel.
26: Combat move (in meters per combat turn) of an air cushion vehicle is )maximum speed (kph) * 0.463) for road speed, and (cruising speed * 0.463) for cross-country speed. Cross-country speed is also its water speed. Travel moves (km per four hours) are 4.32 times these figures.
89: Price for stabilisation gear is per tonne of stabilised weapon.
121: Magazine price is Cr10 per kg.
122: Under recoil, the formula should be:
R = {[(150*SQRT(E))/Ww] + 4} * Rcm
In Bulk formula, use
unloaded mass of firing unit, not loaded.
132: CLC burst size can be 3, 5, 10, or 50.
134: Under "Sights", note that all DEI lasers automatically incorporate laser sights at no additional cost or weight.
139: Under Burst, the formula for HEAP (E-3) should simply be calculated with the formula for HE warheads. Delete the reference to multiplying the result by 0.5.
148: Action modifiers (Am) for price formula:
Configuration Am
----------------------
Single Shot 250
Pump 100
Semi-automatic 200
Automatic 100
----------------------
150: Shoulder-fired rocket launchers may never have a short range greater than 200 metres. Calculate bulk for shoulder-fired rocket launchers the same as for energy weapons (page 122), except treat results of greater than 12 as 12.
151: Calculate bulk for light recoilless rifles the same as for energy weapons (page 122), except treat results of greater than 12 as 12.
