Elder Library/Lasombra rulings official?

I'm a little confused. Is the Elder Library program considered official? If so when will all these new rulings and cards be put out in the next version? Is the Lasombra site and the ruling info on it official? If so why isn't there a link to it from the WW VTES site? T

The program is a fan-made program, as listed on the web site. Like the fan-made foreign translations of the rulebook, the information therein is assumed to be correct, but if it differs from the information on the white wolf site, the white wolf information is to be used, since it is official. > Is the Lasombra site and the ruling info on it official?

The info there is assumed to be correct, but if it differes from the white wolf information, then the white wolf information is to be used. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

The official card text can be found online at http://www.white-wolf.com/vtes/Cardlist.html I use the official card text as the basis for the ELDB database, and incorporate any errata, rulings or clarifications as they are made to the official card text.

No, it's not "official" but it does its best to keep up with the official rulings. >Is the Lasombra site and the ruling info on it official? If so why >isn't there a link to it from the WW VTES site? Mostly, Lasombra archives LSJ's Rules Team Rulings posts, or similar. The posts themselves are "official", rather than any archive of them per se. -- James Coupe PGP Key: 0x5D623D5D EBD690ECD7A1F HEY, MOM!

I guess it just hasn't been updated yet? T

[ quoted text not captured ] 7/11 2001 rulings (found on Lasombra's site) differs from the official rulings dated 7/25 is what I meant. Ravnos cache costing 0 pool is what immediately leaps to mind. [ quoted text not captured ]

This is card text (due to the reprint in Final Nights), and is handled by the card text files. http://www.white-wolf.com/vtes/Cardlist_r.html [ quoted text not captured ]

Since there are many cards reprinted ect that could be considered errata, and I have limited time, send my the cards you would like to see on this list and I will work to get the list completed and posted asap.

Errata is only errata when it changes card text. Card text now reflects the card accurately. [ quoted text not captured ]
