FFS 1st Edition 1st Printing Errata?

William

SOC-13
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?

Also is the information from the Challenge 76 article "Putting the Heat back into Plasma" available on line anywhere?

Or is it e-pay time?

Thanks,

William

*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.

Most excellent, good sir. I thank you.

The "Putting the Heat Back in Plasma" appeared in Challenge #76 and in TNE's Striker II: the revision of Striker is actually well worth the money as it has some fun scenarios and organizational tables for famous Imperial and RC units.
