Via Astrum v0.93
Not as big on the changelog, but big on the changes.
Big changes are some layout changes. Age and categories moved to Chapter 2. A new Chapter 1 System Overview. This is to give you a feel for the system before you create a character. A new career, Clergy. Events have been moved to the careers they affect. Cascading damage is back! It formerly was called Open-Ended rolls. That was ambiguous and since damage is the only mechanic that uses it, the name changed. Couple of damage type changes, new equipment. Much more.
Yet to do is fill out Appendix X Common Calculations, finish Appendix P Instant Parties, more sample vehicles and starships. Complete empires and such.
