Default Product update

I received a product update to GURPS Basic set: Characters and Campaigns. Anyone know what was updated?

Campaigns was updated from the fourth printing to the fifth printing. The bundle now matches the individual PDFs available.

I didn't see any major differences. I wouldn't worry about it too much as there's not even an errata page for the last couple printings of Campaigns. That usually means the changes are inconsequential like typos and what not.

Edit: As an example of minor things that did change... The staff list at the front was updated. The copyright was updated. It's printed in the USA instead of Thailand. URLs were updated. The Pyramid ad at the back was changed to the more modern Warehouse 23 ad. I think there were some minor formatting changes here and there as my PDF comparison tool is going bonkers.

Weird. I haven't gotten an email notice. I wonder how many other products have been updated without my knowledge. Sadly, there's no way of telling, since W23 doesn't tell you when a file was last updated. I may have to download my entire library just to be sure :-(

This week I think it was just a Pyramid (PK posted the changes there) and this one. Siginifact changes are typically posted.

I appear to have the 5th printing of Campaigns despite the file having last been modified in May of 2011.

That was the fifth printing. The update just gives you the 2011 version instead of the 2008 version (4th printing) that was before it.

There's really nothing new about this update.

The important thing in my mind is that everyone now has the same version no matter how they bought it.
