Just a few notes about things that have been changed very late in the writing process. My apologies to those who have followed the game's development for long periods of time.
The one you're probably going to get tripped up the most by is that I've renamed the types of Expressions. It used to be Innate -> Universal -> Exclusive -> Grand Wonderwork. Now, it's Universal -> Common -> Restricted -> Grand Wonderwork. I realize that having "Universal" change levels isn't great, but it feels like a much more sensible scheme.
I've made some small tweaks to how the natives of the Worlds Beyond are handled and what their restricted volition looks like. This mostly impacts the Sovereigns and their mid-to-long-term plots. There have also been some tweaks to the Unroyal, most importantly the sidebar on page 200 (which is now named "Exfiltration" instead and removes/patches some of their previous lore).
Other changes have been fairly small - just formatting and spelling and such. I just wanted to flag those two because the first can be confusing and the second might change some of how you see those civs.
