Yeah, sorry I missed that detail about the blood's colour.

Yes, you are right - those abilities would ignore armour.

re: Marty's blood
In the prologue, Arran makes the assumption that because she is holy and her blood is said to have powers, then her blood is white but after the attack he discovers this is not the case:

The Martyr has become a limp weight, sliding down next to you, dark roses of blood marking her muddied robes. You glance down at the dagger, shocked at what you have done, crimson blood coating you to the elbow.

Wherever the abilities Shadow Thorns and Creeping Cold are mentioned, it is not mentioned that their damage ignores armour. However, if it doesn't, they will not do any damage almost ever.

Entry 630: The Martyr's blood is described trickling scarlet rivulets across Anise's cheeks, however in the prologue Martyr's Blood is described as white of colour.

Can't you also get a cloak item in that quest i'm wondering. I am still new to this.

Thanks for catching that one! Yes, it should be a modifier ability. I'll update the online glossary at some point

"pain sink" is recorded as "pasive" ability in my book and in Glossary: Special abilities (Winter’s Fury). It must be "modifier" ability.

You and me both. I was disappointed my publisher didn't update the text, but I'm promised that when they do a next printing the errata will be included...

Thankfully there weren't many errata anyway.

I bought the sexy 'compact' version of EoWF recently, but I'm disappointed to find that all the errata mentioned in this thread is still present in this version as well the original 'big' release…

Never mind. Still looks great and feels more portable!

Gouge is a passive ability, adding 1 to your Bleed ability. The Heart of Fire version is correct.

I'd just come online to mention that - and you've beaten me to it, haha! Yes, it's marked as a Combat ability, but when it appeared in The Heart of Fire it was a Passive ability. Reading its description makes it sound more like a passive one, so which is the correct category?

Matted mukluks are indeed boots (therefore a 'feet' item). It is correct in the printed version - so that is a mistake in the eBook.

Entry 3 (at least, in the Kindle version) has the same description for "matted mukluks" (cloak, +1 speed, +2 brawn, corrode) as it does for "pestilent hide." Based on the spreadsheet in the downloads section of this website, matted mukluks should be: boots, +1 speed, +1 armor, insulated.

Very small mistake: 756 should have "rookie / veteran" instead of just rookie.

Just a few little hiccups and amends.

Entry 293, 348
Losing a combat to Rutus does not count as a 'defeat'. The text should read:

If you manage to defeat this skilled soldier, turn to 147. If you lose the challenge, this does not count as a defeat. Turn to 258.

Entry 507
The entry numbers for the last two choices have been swapped round.

Entry 756
Final sentence should read: Replace the keyword rookie/veteran with underdog. Return to the map to continue your adventure.

Glossary
(Some amendments to text and abilities - and a couple of omissions. All these have been added to the online glossary on the downloads page)

Fatal blow (co): Use fatal blow to ignore half of your opponent’s armour
(rounding up) when rolling for your damage score. This ability can only be used once per combat.

Hurricane rush (co): Give into your fury and become a reckless whirlwind
of death! Use this ability instead of rolling for a damage score, to inflict 2 damage dice to each opponent ignoring armour (roll separately for each), but for every opponent you hit you must take 1 damage in return, ignoring armour. You can only use this ability once per combat.

Spin shot (co): Instead of rolling for a damage score, you can use spin shot. This ability inflicts 2 damage dice to your opponent, ignoring armour – plus 3 extra damage for every speed point difference you have over your opponent in this round. You can only use this ability once per combat.

Sweet spot (pa): Before a combat begins, choose a number 1-6. Each time your opponent rolls a die with this result when rolling for attack speed, they automatically take 2 damage.

Time shift (sp): You may raise your speed to match your opponent’s for three combat rounds. You cannot play another speed ability until time shift has faded. This ability can only be used once per combat.
