Okay it's your favorite part of any new adventure, posting the errata you spot, as well as any questions or comments you may have.

I'm thinking about ordering the Giant... I haven't purchased any of them yet, but I'm oh so tempted to drop the $120 and get all of them. 

Would that include all printed modules to date (from FGU)?  Or are their plans to do that?  Looking through them it looks like some might be missing.

It looks like Giant #8 has started shipping. It includes the Menagerie, Great Bridge 2, and Rising Sun.

Speaking of Giant #8, it will include the "V&V catalog" list that's in the Yahoo! group.  The text file doesn't display correctly for some stupid reason, but it appears beautifully when I attempt to edit it!   Angry

I always thought Rising Sun was an interesting character. He's Invulnerable but otherwise physically weak. So if an attack is powerful enough to hurt him, it's likely to do him in!

Thanks as I really would appreciate some honest feedback from you guys, as I really do want to make my next adventure better.

I haven't looked at it too deeply yet, but my initial scan is that it's a very nice addition to the fold. My only complaint; I want stats for the heroes! Especially Aluminum Falcon and Juan Iguana who are both awesome.

Riot and Geist are great villains btw. Good reminders that not every bad guy is BUll or Mercury Mercenary, some of them are subtle and perhaps even more dangerous because of that.

I like Kami no Seigi, and I also like that they aren't all stereotypically named. Now as I said, I only skimmed, but an additional suggestion is to put the English translations for Storm, Lightning and Landslide in parenthesis after their names ( I guess Tetsuronin and Oni as well, but those don't seem to translate as directly)

But I'm obviously nit-picking, and this is some really nice stuff. Kudos!  Smiley

The Tres Titanes are Joe Singleton's (the artists) additions, as I told him to have some fun when working on this, and he did.

I'd completely forgot about translating the names into English. As far as Oni and Tetsuronin go, they work out to Demon and Steel Warrior.

They're listed on the counter sheet.

Ah, I see, haven't had a chance to download it yet. Cool. I like the characters from what I saw in the book.  But aren't there four of them?

If you're referring to the heroes, there's a group of three, and an ally of there's, the Aluminum Falcon.

Okay, for those of you who've had a chance to check this out, I'd really like to hear any comments you have on the adventure itself.
