Re: Manual Typos
According to the .map file for Silent Seas, Jelenia Gora apparently appears twice - the island in the southeast was supposed to have two provinces named "Jelenia Gora" and "Giewont." I think there was a copy-paste error when I was assigning names. The one assigned to a sea province was inadvertent. Thanks for finding it.

Re: Manual Typos
p. 61: Retreat* should not have an asterisk as it does not require target orders. The text immediately below that is correct, though.

Re: Manual Typos
p.3, 1st paragraph: "...you're going to find out that there is a lot of learn." should be "a lot to learn"
p.37, 11th paragraph: "Capsule Screen The income, resources, and dominion in a province can be displayed (and toggled off) by hitting the [5] key." should be "the [4] key."
Wicked manual. I can't believe so much useful info is in one place. I am sooooo glad that resources and forts is in there. I always wondered if those heavy brown line impassable shared resources or not. Now I know that I had a crappy start as Ulm in my last DomII PBEM game! I had 2 or 3 territories across heavy brown lines, and they were all the local resource high ones.

Re: Manual Typos
Couple of things from the chart at the back showing Magic Boosting items:
It says Blood Stone boosts Blood but it actually boosts Earth
It says Staff of Elemental Mastery requires 3 of each path to forge, but unless I'm much mistaken it's actually 4.

Re: Manual Typos
On page 77 under Missile Combat there is an inconsistency that is making missile deviation calculation difficult to comprehend. "The amount of deviation is equal to the range multiplied by 1.25 / Precision." Yet, in the example below that, the "divided by Precision" part is left out; it's simply 8 x 1.25 = 10. 10 is a lot different than 10/Precision! (In the example the precision was 10).
The difference is pretty big. For example, a unit with Precision 17 can fire with no deviation up to a range of 10 squares. However, once he hits 11 squares, either the max deviation is 13.75 (13?), or 0.57 (0?). If it's the latter, then technically he can fire with no deviation up to 19 squares away, because it's less than 1.

Re: Manual Typos
In the tutorial it says that conquering the sea province will increase capitol resources due to the fort, but it says land forts do not take from sea provinces on page 36.
Another minor thing would be an explanation of summonable randoms (or, if they are totally random, a disclaimer stating that in the key), as the only other way to find out is via game files.

Re: Manual Typos
Spell Index, page 149. Fire Shield is listed as Ench 1 when it is actually Ench 3.

Re: Manual Typos
Error in the text or in the game :
The manual and the introduction page for Ct'is say that Ct'is (miasma) prefer heat scale +1.
The dominion screen when you create a pretender for Ct'is say they prefer heat scale +2.

Re: Manual Typos
Page 213: Haruspex says it conducts a Search for "EARTH magic". I believe that's suppose to be for nature.
Same page: Augury spell: Search sites of "Earth Magic", but I believe it's supposed to be fire.
Cut and paste gremlin I suspect.
Page 233:
In the light of Northern Star spell description, there is a small conversation about the actual effects of the spell.
Manual is fantastic.

Re: Manual Typos
Table of Abbreviations mentions FWAESDNBHU. There is no U anymore.
Possible omission, definite vagueness: Gift of Kurgi trait list does not mention Feeblemind (or was this removed? I don't have a good-enough Blood mage to check), and simply says "Dangerous". Granted, vagueness might be apropos here.
