In-Game Typos

[vfb]

I think the spelling of the "Lychantropos' Amulet" should actually be "Lycanthropos' Amulet".

It appears to be incorrect both in-game and in the manual.

[vfb]

There's a random event with some spelling and grammar mistakes:

"People here are very unruly and have destroyed valuable equipment that is neccessary for us. Repairs costed 200 gold."

I'd suggest:

"People here are very unruly and have destroyed valuable and essential equipment. Repairs cost 200 gold."

[Digress]

The second sentence in the description of the Vine Shield reads

"Anyone in close combat with the bearder will find that the vines on the shield will lash out and try to hold him still."

should probably read

"Anyone in close combat with bearer will find that the vines that make up the shield will lash out and try to hold them still."

I'd suggest:

"People here are very unruly and have destroyed valuable and essential equipment. Repairs cost 200 gold."

I would suggest

"People here have become very unruly and rioted. Valuable and essential equipment was destroyed. Repairs cost 200 gold."

All the event typos are known issues. The problem is that they are in a completely different file from the descriptions, so they were not fixed earlier.

I135 The Aegis

The description reads:
"This is a round shield of hardened leather with tufts of goat hair surrounding its edge. Upon the leather surface, the unknown maker painted an extremely vivid image of the Medusa. The image is so vivid that anyone who meets the mad gaze of the painted eyes will be instantly petrified. Anyone fighting the Aegis-bearer will thus have trouble watching and predicting the Aegis-bearer's moves as he tries to avoid the leering face of the Medusa."

1."the Medusa"
This should be changed to "Medusa". Stheno, Euryale, and Medusa were the names of the Gorgon sisters. Saying "the Medusa" is akin to saying "the David".

2."Anyone fighting the Aegis-bearer will thus have trouble watching and predicting the Aegis-bearer's moves as he tries to avoid the leering face of the Medusa."

This isn't really a typo and I don't know what Illwinters stance on feminine and masculine pronouns is so this may or may not be an issue. Technically, if you don't know the sex of the person it is standard English to use "he," "him," or "his." However, the gender issue could be avoided if the sentence was rewritten as "Anyone fighting the Aegis-bearer will thus have trouble watching and predicting the Aegis-bearer's moves as they try to avoid the leering face of the Medusa.". Of course, if "he" is being used everywhere in cases when the sex isn't known there is no point in changing it as it is still standard English.

3."... the unknown maker painted an extremely vivid image of the Medusa."

Again not really a typo but I would have thought the one who forged the item would be the maker and thus the maker is not unknown.

-----

The first point is the only one I think needs to be fixed the other two are just observations.

So at the very least the description should read:
"This is a round shield of hardened leather with tufts of goat hair surrounding its edge. Upon the leather surface, the unknown maker painted an extremely vivid image of Medusa. The image is so vivid that anyone who meets the mad gaze of the painted eyes will be instantly petrified. Anyone fighting the Aegis-bearer will thus have trouble watching and predicting the Aegis-bearer's moves as he tries to avoid the leering face of Medusa."

Noted on the Aegis. I'll see about it. The heat scale errors are known and shortlisted and will be fixed for the next patch, since the Hinnom/Ashdod/Gath nations need to be proofread anyway.

Sidhe Champion M1752 and Sidhe Lord M1759

"Since the Tuatha failed to conquer, Formoria they..."

should be

Thanks! Fixed! I'll mail the newly fixed one to Kristoffer right away.
