NERV White Paper (RPG)

Hello everyone!

I started translating the NERV White Paper RPG sourcebook, as I could not find a translated version anywhere. Before I go reinventing the wheel, could you confirm that?

Also, I realised that there are only a few pages available online. Is there anyone who has the full scan? Or do the missing pages do not matter?

I'm naturally happy to share the translations afterwards.

Thank you!

As far as I'm aware, a select few passages have been translated a while ago, but never anything resembling the full thing.

I'd be happy to help track down the missing scans, which ones do you have?

As far as I know, all available scans were provided by me, mid-00s or so. I still have the book, but my scanner is one of those tiny things where you have to physically hold the book against the glass for two minutes per page -- obviously I'm not going to scan the whole thing.

Looks like the scans I made were dumped here.

Thank you both, and thank you Reichu for uploading the scans in the first place.

I can understand, it's quite a tedious and time consuming activity!

I was mostly interested in Chapter 4, the one detailing the story but I will keep being on the lookout for any other source I might stumble upon.

Someone translated both White Paper as well as the sequel, Descent of Angel:
Nerv White Paper
Descent of Angel
EDIT: The same person also did all three of theMagius series!
Book 1: Decisive Battle in Tokyo-3
Book 2: Angel Approaches
Book 3: Angel, Defeated!

They go by Trotti, though the uploader is Syslogician. I suggest we try contacting them. He also uploaded E-Mono in August (!). Seems it went completely unnoticed. You might wanna make a separate thread for it.

Trotti and Syslogician seem to be the same person. I've contacted them. Let's see if they're interested.

Getting into contact with Trotti could be a good idea, but how do you suggest we do it? As for E-Mono, I personally feel that we should probably wait on confirmation that we can actually even get the thing translated by someone.
