T5 0.9 Errata Thread

380: Missing word or something

On page 380, right side, in the SILVER GLOBE section, the first sentence seems to be missing a word or phrase.
 
389: Extra words present?

On page 389, right side, in the section titled "Tailored and Absolute Defenses", in the first paragraph, the first sentence seems to have some extra words. I'm not sure what it is supposed to say, but what's there can't be right.
 
389: Missing period

On page 389, in the table at the bottom of the right column, there appears to be two sentences strung together:

Success deflects the attack A mount which fires Anti-Fire cannot attack in the Combat Round.

I suspect there is supposed to be a period at the end of the word "attack".

Success deflects the attack. A mount which fires Anti-Fire cannot attack in the Combat Round.
 
373: typo

On page 373, in the 5th paragraph (just above "STANDARD MOUNTS", the last sentence reads:

The Scrambler Series produces the Mag, Grav, and Electronic Scramblers.

I suspect it is supposed to be produced, not produces:

The Scrambler Series produced the Mag, Grav, and Electronic Scramblers.
 
374: extra period

On page 374, left side, in the paragraph just above the "N NUCLEAR DAMPER" section, the last sentence ends with:

produce the Tractor/Pressor and the Disintegrator./Disruptor.

I suspect the period is extra, and it should be:

produce the Tractor/Pressor and the Disintegrator/Disruptor.
 
403: extraneous text?

On page 403, left side, in the 2nd paragraph under the "Gas Giants and Belts" section, the first sentence ends with:

which produces a range from 0 to 4 with some chance of none at all.

IMO, the words "with some chance of none at all" are not required.
 
47: Missing Parentheses

p.47: Travellers' Aid Society:

Travellers’ Aid Society. The TAS is an NGO Non-Governmental Organization devoted to assisting travellers.

This appears to be missing parentheses and should probably read:

Travellers’ Aid Society. The TAS is an NGO (Non-Governmental Organization) devoted to assisting travellers.
 
I am impressed with how thorough your search was for errors. Is there an errata collection that only deals with rules errors/omissions? The spelling errors, unless unreadable or misleading, aren't that important to me.

This website is so useful to my Traveller game. CotI hopes keep Traveller alive.
 
476: Missing TC

On page 476, left side, in the 2nd paragraph below the list of 12 Trade Classifications (TCs), the cargo is missing An.

Also, it's not clear how this example shows how TCs work, since Pa, Ph, An, and Cp are not in the list of 12, but 3 of those 4 are in the cargo identifier.
 
476: Wrong skill, and typo

On page 476, right side, in the PLAYER SKILLS section, under the Admin paragraph, I'm not sure it's the Steward that gets tipped (per mid passenger). Could be, but then why list it under the Admin paragraph?

Also, I think "tipper" should be "tipped"
 
Correction

Page 286, SELECT MISSION MODIFIERS (Table F) (correction):
Interceptor is listed twice - codes D and J.

Recommend substituting the second instance (line J) with Interface rather than Interceptor.

Also...


Page 286, SELECT MISSION MODIFIERS (Table F) (recommendation): Recommend deleting "LR" from line L as it is redundant and adding Lifeboat in its place.

 
Page 289, C Hull Configuration Characteristics (correction):
The notation "+1" was omitted in the last row of the Agility column.

 
495: typo

On page 495, in the 1st paragraph of the section titled "Tools Shape Their Users", in the first sentence under the title, I think the word "their" should be "they".
 
495: typo

On page 495, in the last paragraph under the "Tools Shape Their Users", the last sentence ends with space period ("sophisticated .") The space should be removed.
 
376: Missing Code Letter

In order to be consistent with the rest of the section:

Toward the bottom of the Right-Hand column - Magnetic Scrambler
This section should have a large Q in front of it, just as Gravitic Scrambler has a J and Electronic Scrambler has an E.
 
347: Duplicated Code Letter

In the How Power Systems Work section starting on p.347, if each of the power systems is supposed to have a unique code-letter designator, Antimatter Power and Ambient (Photo-) Cell are both assigned the designator A. One of them should be assigned a different letter code.
 
421: typo

On page 421, left side, in the paragraph titled "Mapped Using Terrain Symbols", the word "of" should be replace by "or" (4 words from the end).
 
502: inconsistent periods and plurals

On page 502 - 507, the tech tables use periods inconsistently.

Plural usage is inconsistent as well.

Examples:

On the TL 0 column, there are periods in the Society, Environ, and Comms columns, but not in the 2nd Era or Energy columns. But, if you skip TL 5, Electricity gets a period in the Energy column, while Skyscrapers does not in the Environ column.

I recommend removing all periods (except in the decimal numbers in the first Era column). Use " / " or semi-colon where you want to break apart words.

For plurals, on the TL 0 line, Crude Shelters, Personal Senses, and Messengers are plural, while Tribe and Clan are not (but should be).
