Well, I totally expected this to be digest sized.
An interesting surprise to get slightly taller than industry norm and slightly thinner than industry norm in size format.
Pity it is not a hardcover option. The tome thickness is comparable to a lot of other products out there doing the third party variation game.

The physical purchase option is a great deal in this case. it would cost me more to have it printed and spiral bound even though page count is not very high at about 80 pages. Page size means all the charts maps and forms are also sizable. But to print anything out, you might need to request greater than 8.5x11.

A very happy purchaser here.

Does taking a reaction to dodge voids aiming?

While 'aiming' you can do nothing else. So if you dodge out of the way of a sword swing, you're no longer aiming your bow at a target (with regard to getting the bonus).

Love the book in general, and while new to D100-systems, I like the OpenQuest foundation here. That said, as in OQ 1e (maybe 2e as well, but I don't have that), there's very little said about shields except that they exist, their size and ENC, and that they can be used to parry.

While OQ3e adds some details, what rules have people been using for shields? Penalty to hit for opponent? Added armor? I'd love to hear any thoughts :-)

R.A.W. = Shields (or an off-hand) weapon give you an additional 'parry' per round.
However, the benefit of having a shield is that it can parry against larger weapons than a weapon of a similar size category.
You can also attempt to parry hand-thrown missile weapons with a shield (plus, if you have a large shield, it imposes a -25 penalty on ranged attacks ...assuming it's facing the right direction ;) ).

Thanks for your clarification, Kristian! I'm going to be ordering your setting books in paper, having enjoyed the core rules so much. OpenQuest is a great foundation for an RPG system!

In the main rule book, in the animals section, SIZ 7 for a crocodile looks a bit on the small size. SIZ 26 would be medium sized, with SIZ 50 would be a large one

Yeah. The animal list needs some work (since the game is based on OpenQuest, I just used the same animal list for consistency).
If I ever get around to making a 2nd edition (which I have been thinking about) it will be one of the things I redo :)

No worries. It is a minor thing easily rectified if anyone has some MRQ beastiaries. I 'd like to see some more 'Neath the Shadow stuff, rather than a second edition, as the first edition is mighty fine already. Some elaboration of the city backgrounds from the Campaign Guide would be good, with some scenarios set in various cities (or just one city).

Livres Scannés
Ces livres électroniques ont été créés physiquement en scannant les originaux et en utilisant les images obtenues pour faire les pages pdf. Chaque page est passée par un programme de reconnaissance optique ces caractères (OCR) afin d'essayer de déchiffrer le texte imprimé. Le résultat de ce procédé OCR est situé de manière invisible derrière l'image de chaque page scannée, pour permettre d'utiliser des recherches de texte. Cependant, un texte dans un livre donné sur un fond graphique ou avec des fontes manuelles ne sera probablement pas reconnu par le programme OCR, et ne sera donc pas pris en compte dans les recherches. Aussi certains livres imposants peuvent être redimensionnés pour correspondre au système, et peuvent ne pas avoir cette fonctionnalité de recherche de texte. La plupart des livres les plus vieux et en rupture d'impression sont dans le format images scannées.

Format électronique original
Ces livres électroniques ont été créé à partir des versions électroniques, et permettent donc d'utiliser pleinement la fonction recherche. De plus, la taille de leur fichier tend à être plus petite que celle des livres scannés. La plupart des livres récents sont dans le format électronique original.
