The October 2012 edition of the Knight Realms Rulebook is now online!

Changes are mostly cosmetic - a slightly new layout, and some formatting that has made the book take up fewer pages. Additionally, the HTML / Web Page version of the book should look much better, and also load much faster.

Go ahead and download it for your phone / tablet, or print out a copy!

www.knightrealms.com/rulebook.html

(Note that the URL to the old web version of the rulebook has changed - it now ends in HTML instead of just HTM.)

The next batch of changes should not be for several months, unless a major rules update necessitates a new version.

For those interested in the technical details, the Rulebook is now maintained in LibreOffice instead of MS Word. This change has allowed several things, notably the improved Web versions of the rulebook, and also the potential to eventually output the rulebook into ePub format. (It also means I don't need to deal with the buggy version of MS Word for Mac, or use Parallels to run it in Windows, to get things done...)

Thank you, Geoff, this is awesome. I have noted that the pagination seems to be off.

For example the scholar section on Illumination is listed on page 186 in the Table of Contents, but in the document appears on page 271.

"Prohasar man opre pirende - sa muro djiben semas opre chengende." - Romany phrase meaning:
Bury me standing - I've been on my knees all my life.

Obviously, it's a ... clerical error. :P

Thank you, I'll take a look at it.
