T'Pol from Enterprise Collection and from Remastered appears to have changed the text of the [DL] from the original print to the new one. I don't have any record of when this happened or if it was an oversight.

Original: [DL] Any interrupt with Vulcan in the gametext or lore.
Current: [DL] Any interrupt with "Vulcan" in title or gametext

If anyone can advise, that'd be great :)
Actually, yeah, I remember this!

For Project Shran / Enteprise Remastered, there were a number of small non-functional "cleanup" changes like this. I believe this was also when we changed Phlox's lore to confirm he was denobulan (allowing us to remove that from the Glossary).

This particular change was made because it covers the same set of Interrupts, but is less labor-intensive for players. Right around that time, Rules was starting to become concerned about how much the modern game forces people to pay attention (in minute detail!) to lore, and this has come out in various ways in the past few years, usually in the development phase. This was a very low-cost way to divert attention away from lore on an already-released card -- a rare chance -- with no side-effects, so we suggested it. Since Matt Zinno, head of Errata, was the most concerned of any of us about the game's reliance on lore, he happily took the idea.

Yes - noticed that Jeremy Lucas also had a tweak to properly refer to Phlox. Thank you. My list is complete - if you want to do some website tweaks, the blue and red text on the Google Doc is what you want.

Much obliged. I'll try and find time to fill in some database holes tomorrow.

This list is updated, adding Dyson Sphere Door.

The grant total is now 265 cards with errata.

The Google Doc is updated as well, linked at the top.

Enjoy!

Yes.

I proofread the errata on both versions so I know they didn't forget about him. :wink:

I know I'm a bit behind on this list with the Equipment dial-a-skill from July and the August Final Frontier errata. I will update the list this upcoming Monday with those and any potential September errata. No point in doing it now if I'll just have to go back in to update again in a few days.

Updated for the July, August, and September errata. The Google Doc is now 48 pages.

Added:
[P] Enemies of the State
[Equ] Classic Communicator
[Equ] Classic Medical Tricorder
[Equ] Classic Tricorder
[Equ] Mission Briefing PADD
[Equ] Vulcan PADD
[Evt] Five-Year Mission

Updated:
[Equ] Vulcan Tricorder (It has a cosmetic errata before, but now has more significant to follow the other dial-a-skill equipment.)

Now there is 275 cards with errata. (I am not considering multiple prints of one card - 275 distinct cards with errata.) I'll try to update this more in a more timely manner in the future.

I'm updating the database errata entries, because it turns out there are a ton of errata entries (70+) since 2019 that were not logged as errata in the errata table, and therefore the system has no idea when or why the cards got errata -- just that they did.

The system says Husnock Outpost received errata. The errata image is from OTSD-Remastered, so I assume that's when the errata happened. Looking at the two cards, though, I can't see any differences. What changed here? It doesn't seem to have any different gametext. (It may be lore, but I can't see it, but I often can't.)

EDIT: @jrch5618 , your Google Doc of all errata was an absolute and utter godsend to me in this project. Thank you. Let me repay the favor with a list of all errata (or, gosh, I hope it's all errata) since your last update:

Five-Year Mission 8/3/2020 Errata issues to limited this card to decks using all [OS] cards, and changing the timing of the draw to end of turn.
Enemies of the State 9/8/2020 Errata adds a countdown, fixes a rules loophole with no opponent's personnel, and slightly adjusts the requirements.
Rayna Kapec 2020-11-02 Due to a printing error, Rayna Kapec (who was supposed to have SCIENCE classification) was released with MEDICAL classification instead.

The difference is the title. The original card was printed just like all other Outposts at the time as "Husnock" but the format now is "❖ Husnock Outpost". As it's a reprint, I'm guessing it's less a "new" errata and more a "this is a new image of a previous errata" (as I believe all of the Outposts had previously had this errata done to them some time ago).
