The result of some bored Sunday purchasing plopped onto the mat today. I got DBA 3 (softback edition), Son of Arthur and Merlin and lots of MDF bases, mainly the wrong size for some inexplicable reason.

Did your copy have any of the following defects:
  • Off centre cover - cropped on the right
  • Lots of white space at the bottom of the page but a line close to the last text on each page
  • Wonky diagrams - look at the "bases" that are not perpendicular to the page edges
  • Error in Fleeing - see below supposedly corrected before mine was printed
Mine did!

All caused by Sue's resizing of the source pdf without reformatting. Lulu just scaled to the new page size (bar the cover which is cropped) and added new page numbers (hence the white space/line issue).
