Ghildrean: There were three more updates:

Ultima Underworld 1+2: Reference cards added
Ultima 7 The Complete Edition: Maps, cluebooks and design documents added
Ultima 8 Gold Edition: Lost Vale design documents added

According to the promo news, for Ultima 7 they added a colored map of Serpent Isle and the cluebooks (I think one of them was missing, but don't remember which one).
It was the cluebook for the second part, Serpent Isle.

By the way, I checked again the spellbook for Ultima 4 (both Ultima 4 and Ultima 4+5+6) and is still missing page 8.

See attached to see how it looks.
That is indeed pretty fugly, but very obvious.
Of course some kind of official 'Show updated' button or list option would be acceptable IMO and really shouldn't take too much time to create.

I just checked on the downloads for Ultima IV, the free version and the spellbook has the 8th page. Could you download it now from your My Account page for Ultima 4 the free version? Also, please check your downloads for Ultima 4+5+6. Both games have the manual without the missing page 8. Let us know if there are any problems :D.

^^ This, surely there's a wishlist item for this somewhere, but I guess this one is worded best, at least for me.

You're welcome and sorry it took so long but at least it fit in with getting all the content for the other Ultimas :D.

I also noticed that the free version of Ultima 4 doesn't have the reference card, but it is included in the Ultima 4+5+6 pack.

You guys really should improve your scanning skills (see the Cluebook for Ultima 7)

Ok, so people who did scan them should improve them then. :)

Woah, that's goodie floodie I see now.
I just got updates:
Wing Commander 1+2 - Wing commander product proposal
Privateer - Wing commander Privateer playtesters guide

Busy Thursday we have, GOG?

I smell new batch from EA is coming :-D

Yes, and I think that the problem of the expansions may be resolved soon.

If GOG didn't scan those documents, it's possible they got it from someone at EA (and they had to get EA "ok" for adding them). And it is good opportunity to end the expansion deal.
