New lists, I hear?
« on: July 22, 2025, 02:05:19 AM »
So I'm hearing word that new list books are being prepared. Can anyone provide any insight? Is there anyone I can talk to about this?

Thank you!

Very late reply, but yet, there are updated lists in the works. Mostly bugfixes and clarification rather than new historical interpretations. Hopefully to be publish this year.

Sorry, very late reply on my part too. But thank you for your reply.

If this project is still ongoing, I'd like to be involved. My main concern is that the last list book revision completely missed a large number of errata which have been listed on this forum. Since then even more have been found. So even if I can't be involved, I would appeal to the editors to please check through the errata on this forum.

I would also ask that the revision address the inconsistencies in date ranges in lists. That is, rather than using a mix of "From X year" and "After X year", I request that the editors choose one form and apply it across all the lists. This leads to absurdities such as the one in the Early Burgundian list (Book 4, list 76):

Only after 1464:
Swiss Pk (S)

Only from 1465:
Regrade C-in-C as Inert

The two bolded lines have identical meanings. This sort of inconsistency causes confusion.

Thank you very much!
