Had been on the SR4 homepage but i couldnīt find the erratas. There was a forum for them, but the erratas itself are not there. Did i overlook them? Do i need new glasses?

No. They need to make errata for their books.

Check out the "game resources" link at Shadowrun4.com.
Here: http://www.shadowrun4.com/game-resources/

Only four books have documented errata, though.

Augmentation errata was supposedly nearly ready for release almost two years ago..... but never surfaced. Although at the time I was told it was a small one.

I will put in that when I was looking for them a couple of weeks ago, there were a lot of bad links on the SR4 site and the errata were not as easy to find as they used to be. I don't recall the details, but it was annoying enough that I chose to actually save even the small ones to my local machine instead of look as needed like I've done in the past.

It's a secret
[ Spoiler ]

Not that it's really worth the searching effort, all errata docs there are years old. Which maybe isn't that bad, because Jason has finally admitted what most people already knew: All communication with the German publisher was filed at the same place as the freelancer paychecks (and proofreader feedback, and...). So if there ever were new errata, it would probably be completely incompatible.


And the errata forum is merely a brainstorming platform for fan proposals, the devs don't even bother to confirm obvious things submitted there.

Normally one has a single erratum or several errata bundled together. I suppose the superplural erratas might be like "peoples"... but it might just as easily be like the "dreamses" and "troopseses" found in The Backstroke of the West.

I am german and in our language stuff like that works perfectly. It is a really handy language that forgives a lot and is still understandable. Sometimes i mix up all the languages i know ...beware of the day i start mixing french or italian in my posts...^^ But of course you are right. Singular: erratum, plural: errata.

CGL is perfect, why would any of their products need Errata?

Careful, you might attract the attention of an Anvil of PUNishment. They're made from high grade irony.

Hint: "Mice" used to be pronounced "Meese".
