				 Re: Manual Typos 
 Some spells mention Def in the special box, but it isn't explained. 
 Some items mention Running, but it isn't explained.
 
 EDIT:
 On Page 74, battlefield movement doens't mention Flight's tactical teleporting. Also, the battle sequence seems to be out of order. Mages cast spells first, that's true, but fliers fly before missiles units fire missiles. If there is an order, archers should fire before fliers fly.

				 Re: Manual Typos 
 Info about magic sites is missing
Either its really not there, or its so well-hidden I haven't found it in half n hour of search .. . E.g. there is no "search for magic sites"-entry in the "Order" paragraph beginning on page 66!
magic siteswhere can they be found? (Table: terrain-dependence)how can they be found? (obvious = level 0, map icons on random map, sitesearch command, spells)what they do - automatically or 'interactive':gemsrecruitablesenter for *free unit*enter for *spell*other properties (arena, holy fire, etc)

				 Re: Manual Typos 
 Ooh-key    
Hmmm .. "sites" are surely not part of the "interface" .. 
 
IMHO they deserve their own entry in the index, and maybe even in the table of contents.
 
Or at least the "map" should appear in the TOC.
 
And the sitesearch command IS missing, isn't it?

				 Re: Manual Typos 
 Page 26 "choose do so" should probably be "choose to do so". (I don't think this was reported, I searched the forum for it and came up with no results)

 |  Actually, they do have their own entry in the index.  See p. 291.
 
Search for magic sites order is missing, yes. |

				 Re: Manual Typos 
 Trample description on pg 57 doesn't mention that Trample causes fatigue. On trample discussion, it was also mentioned that size difference affects the amount of trampling a unit is capable of, so that e.g. Great Mother with same APs as a minotaur trammples twice as many squares of size 2 creatures. |

 Natural protection/armor protection stacking isn't mentioned on page 55, the only page index has for "Protection". |

				 Re: Manual Typos 
 Thanks to everyone for all the help locating typos and errors.  I have submitted a list of fixes to Shrapnel which will be incorporated in the second printing of the manual.  Also, I have made a one-page National Globals list of the three missing spells.  You can find it on the  downloads page . |

 |  So is the second print run of the game going to contain the new, updated manual?  Any idea when it would become available? |
