Hi,
I used to play the original Prime Directive, and have just got re-interested and purchased GPD from my F-not-so-LGS.
I have a question regarding the POD format - the latest update listed is 1 May 2006, and with no errata available that I can find I have to ask, have there been any changes since then? If there has, how do I get access to them?
I only ask as the store could have been sitting on the book sine '06. Of course, probably nothing has changed since that date but I'd like to be sure.
Thanks in advance,
Chris

Chris, I don't know of any additional errata since I came on board in late 2007. That doesn't mean there aren't any typos or errors -- just that I haven't heard about them.

Chris, there are three sourcebooks out there for GURPS PD. Klingons, Romulans, and the brand-new Federation (just released in print on the 23rd). I do hope you enjoy the books -- if you find issues with anything, then please let me know. I cannot guarantee to seriously update the books until I get to Amarillo in 2013, but at least I'll have a starting place.

I doubt I'd find anything. I was just checking before I start working with it, as without an errata document I felt a little out there (I'm used to other RPG houses).
If I do though, I'll let you know. I'm a copy editor so I really will.
Anyway... Things I found today: Prime Directive (TFG version), plus Prime Adventures, and UFP - my books from the '90s!

I'd be surprised if you didn't.
I know there are editing things I want to change. Still, I think the facts are basically good. Feel free to post or to PM me with what you find.

The GCA PD stuff does not seem to add up right - is this because I'm only a Gurps PD player and don't have the Gurps Basic set? 37 points vs 25 points for Star Fleet Academy?

Chris, I'm on a tight proofreading schedule right now -- could you nudge me July 1 to do the research?
Thanks a bunch!

Will do - I'll also post here if I resolve it myself, it might be something I'm doing with the GCA software.
