Eosa's SIZ got pushed from 21 to 22 at the last minute, and unfortunately, only DMG was recalculated. Hence:
Knockdown 22 (not 21)
Hit Points 37 (not 36)

Also, Octa's armor is still in Eosa's write-up: "Note Octa’s good armor and (and that shields protect only 1d6 vs. axes). Eosa fights on foot."
It should be (replace Octa-> Eosa and strike the doubled "and"): "Note Eosa’s good armor (and that shields protect only 1d6 vs. axes). Eosa fights on foot."

Octa's write-up was carbon copy of the GPC write-up (Year 490) which had errors, too:
- CON is 13, so Major Wound should be 13, not 14.
- He is riding a charger but lacking Horsemanship (as do his heorthgeneats in 490).
(Personally I'd give them Horsemanship 15, since that is rather easy to raise that far and is OK for a mounted warrior, which he & his heorthgeneats clearly are, even without lances.)
- Axes DO NOT IGNORE SHIELDS (only flails and warflails do). Instead of "(and remember that axes ignore shields)" it should be "(and that shields protect only 1d6 vs. axes)".

Although I might take this opportunity to note that the PKs would not be meeting either one of these kings in the field of battle in 484 in the default campaign: we need them alive and free to cause further trouble in 488 - 490.
