terryclothI've been buying the new 4th edition of GURPS, and the latest thing to come out for it (although it was like a month ago) was Magic. Now, Magic seemed to have all the spell lists you'd expect, but the prerequisite charts were missing from the back of the book, except for one ('Food') which was there to taunt you with an example of what you weren't seeing. The others, the taunting continued, were available for download on the web.
Except... they aren't. There's 'spellcharts.zip', a 6.6 meg (WTF?) zip file (WTF? It does NOT need to be 6.6 megs given the amount of stuff inside) that has a bunch of spellcharts in it... but not, you know, all of them. Out of 24 colleges listed on the key (all of which are real colleges with spells listed in the book) seven of them are missing their chart or, in the case of Water, half their chart.
I didn't discover this until I went to print them out. Gaaaaah. This pretty much means I'll have to draw up the fricking charts on my own if I ever want to use the book, because they're sort of necessary given the way GURPS magic works.
