Book 4, p. 39 (box): "For now, the scenario assumes that Mehmet Makryat is Mehmet Makryat, and that Professor Smith is languishing in the minaret prison of the Shunned Mosque." should be something like "For now, the scenario assumes that Professor Smith is really Mehmet Makryat, and that the real Professor Smith is languishing in the minaret prison of the Shunned Mosque." Doesn't really make much sense as written.

Book 2, p. 186 (map): This map uses both miles and metres. I suggest metres be changed to yards to avoid mixing Imperial and metric measurements and to maintain consistency with other maps, also marked in yards.

The maps in Book 3 also seem to alternate between metric and imperial measurements. The one on p. 82 and p. 252 has both, but suggests that one mile is about 250 metres, which is incorrect.

Campaign Book p47: the heading 'Istanbul, 2014' should read 'Istanbul, 2013' instead. The Simulacrum Unbound scenario is set in 2013.

Hello, and thanks to everyone that has taken a look at the Horror on the Orient Express pre-production proof. We are making the corrections, and want to send a sincere thanks. We will be sending the books to the printer in mid-to-late January, so post any additional comments/corrections when you see them so I can make the corrections.

Thanks again!
