BeastMaker native terrain

[agorski]

There's practically nothing in the T5.09 errata on the BeastMaker rules, and there probably should be some things added. Here's a case where a clarification is needed:

On page 596, the note at the bottom of the page states:

Substitute these native terrain names if the Homeworld is Twilight Zone or Locked.

My question would be do these 3 (-1, 0, and 1) totally replace the normal ones (-5 to +5) or do they only replace the ones with the same numbers. The reason I ask is that these values are used in beast generation and limiting them to only 3 values changes what beasts are possible, which doesn't seem desirable.

I agree that you have to roll and maintain the full ±5 native terrain for the system to work, so I would only replace the ±1 terrain types and keep the rest.

The text seems to hint at that too (you only replace the specified terrain names, not the flux roll).

Please feel free to PM me directly. I can use feedback like yours to help build out a wiki article for fans like you.

Agreed.
