As it was already advanced in this post, Hasbro took the action of solving the starting weapon misprints found in Spanish Edition's character cards of Wizard, Elf and Dwarf (more details here).

Well... great news for Spanish HeroQuest buyers: Avalon Hill has just announced in their website that they will ship a copy of the corrected character cards to anyone Spanish buyer.

They also provide a digital copy of the corrected cards (PDF file) in the same announcement for free download.

Very nice. Do they want the "incorrect" cards sent back, or are those becoming collector items? Then again, people who buy them on the re-sale market might get the uncorrected cards unaware...

As far as I know, the affected people just receive the corrected cards once they ask for them to Avalon Hill and provide them a proof of purchase, so... if I am right, the incorrect cards will be sure collector items the years to come :D :D

On the Torment of the Spirit Queen Quest Book, on quest 4, page 13, point B it says:

B. The orc and goblins are brewing strange concoctions on this table. There are three potions. If a hero drinks one, have them roll 1 white die. Shield: weak potion of healing, restores up to 2 lost Body Points. Skull: potion of battle, reroll 1 Attack die during this quest. Any other result is poison, lose 1 Body Point.

which doesn't make many sense, since the white dice only have Shields and Skulls, it should say "White Shield: weak potion of healing,..."
and also maybe "Black Shield: poison,..." instead of "any other result is poison,..."

Good point "shield" by itself implies both black AND white shields. Your explanation makes sense...

Just found a minor mismatch on a name in The Prophecy of Telor quest book.

On page 19, almost at the end it says: "...you will first need to journey to the Archives at Andinus.

But quest 7 title on page 21 is: The Archives at Arborenis
And quest 8 parchment text reads: ... of the archives at Arborenis is...

So, Andinus or Arboremis, where are the Archives really at? :D


(Edit: I put quest 9 instead of 8 :P)

Just found a small typo on The Prophecy of Telor quest book.

On page 4, point 5, The Rise of Fellmarak, on the text to read to the players: "...and arisen as Fellmarak, the Scorcerer King." should be Sorcerer :P

Not sure if this is really needs to be corrected. On Page 11 in the Crypt of Perpetual Darkness, the descriptor "Zombies crawl out of the secret passage revealed by the new moon's light!" looks better on Note B.
Also since its pluralized, personally I'd want to keep spawning Zombies there until the Heroes got to the passage. Not that this was intended, but it seems more fun.

Yeah, of course it is an errata, good catch!

Well, It seems "Arborenis" wins 2-1 to "Andinus" since it is mentioned in quests #7 and #8 (not #9, isn't it?), so I think it is clear which term could be the correct one :-) Good catch too!

Yes, of course it is a misprint.

Yeah, I think we would not consider it an errata since the sentence could make sense in both Notes A & B, but yes, it is a little bit unaccurate.


I have updated the errata summary here with the last mistakes reported.

Found another minor typo on Telor's quest book.

Page 29, Quest 11, on the parchment text says: "dungeons below Turrek Tor" , correct is "dungeons below Turekk Tor".
Turekk was mispelled the first time is named on the text.
