Classic Adventures: Volume Three

[bradiation]

Hey guys. Call for help, or possible correction.

My copy of this book arrived in the mail today. I just read through the "Tatooine Manhunt" section, and I've noticed that on page 90, it makes reference to a "read aloud" section to be read before players read their scripts, but that that section doesn't actually exist. Or maybe it does, and I'm crazy?

Anyway, does anyone have access to the missing text? Maybe in the 1st edition printing of the adventure? Or perhaps you know where I could track down an errata sheet.

Ah, West End Games. When the content is this good, who needs a copyeditor?

Any help would be appreciated.

I don't have the classic adventures vol II, just the Tatooine Manhunt itself, so the page numbers may be incorrect, but if it is the "Episode One, the mission begins" page, here goes:


A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...

EXTERIOR: SPACECRAFT IN SPACE. The Imperial Star Destroyer Relentless docks with Kwenn Space Station.

INTERIOR: IMPERIAL STAR DESTROYER - AUDIENCE CHAMBER. Twin Blast doors slide open, revealing the dark interior of a massive chamber. An Imperial captain stands upon a high platform, flanked by lower officers. Two stormtroopers march in. They drop a manacled prisoner at the feet of Captain Parlan, commander of the warship.
"The charge," demands Parlan.
"Piracy, sir," snaps a trooper.
"Kill the scum," Parlan replies coldly.
"Wait!" screams the prisoner, "I have something to bargain with. Information important to the Emperor... inexchange for my life."
Parlan's dead eyes gleam triumphantly. "Go ahead, I'm all ears."
"Tallon... it concerns Adar Tallon..."
Parlan listens intently to the pirate's tale, then issues orders. Quietly, Ensign Dana pockets a data storage pad and slips away.
The commander issues one final order, "Lieutenant Voor, send for the bounty hunters."
Fade to...
INTERIOR: KWENN SPACE STATION.

Fantastic! Thanks a ton.

Sigh. Tatooine Manhunt... good times.

Aside: one of the improvised encounters I made up when the PCs are in the cantina was one of the PCs roll and spot a silent unmoving armored person sitting in one of the dimly lighted booth. The PC walks in closer to investigate and bit by bit I described what seemed to be someone in Mandalorian armor like Jodo Kast or Boba Fett. The PC sneaks up to him, brandishes a blaster and starts threatening the silent figure, who sits still coolly without saying anything, which just freaks out the PC more.

In the end, Wuher (though we just called him "the bartender" in those days) yelled at the PC to stop talking to the new sculpture he just purchased. That got a lot of laughs in the game.
