Hey guys, I finally got my hands on a copy of The Jericho Reach yesterday. As I was flipping through, I read through Brother Vigilant's statblock. There, his rosarius had an overload rating of 01. Should we take this as an update/errata to the rosarius, or just a flub on the part of the writers?
The Rosarius
per this thread http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_foros_discusion.asp?efid=212&efcid=3&efidt=462968 and the guys at FFG it would be a typo I think.
Danke. Not the only wrong information in that statblock, anyway, since the Skull Helm is AP 9, not 8.

El wrong-o.
The normal skull helm is indeed ap 8. The only benefit it gives over basic helm is +10 to intimidate.
The space puppy Wolf Skull helm is ap 9.
I don't have that book, and so I can't look at the stat block, but is there any chance that, maybe, the item is of a higher quality? I know that, in many field emitters, a higher Quality improves the overload score, so perhaps his skull helm/rosarius is of a better quality, and maybe the book forgot to mention it? If it's a Chaplain, and he has a name, maybe he received a better piece, either for services, or through requisition.
Again, I don't know, but that's a thought. I know in Ascension, Malaki Vess equips a refractor field, and it's overload is 01, because it is Best Quality.

The Rosarius specifically has no overload. For whatever reason the Chaplain in question has a typo in his build.

Check again, dude. In Rites of Battle, the Skull Helm has a listed AP of 9.

Well looky there. It does indeed. Good thing I've not taken my shower yet, somethings on my face.
Guess thats what I get for paying more attention to the description than the stat block...
No worries, we all make mistakes.
