Unit Descriptions
We need a volunteer to take over getting the unit descriptions for RS2. This project has really been stalled and I would like someone to take over making sure they are entered into 'export_units.txt', and edited for spelling and grammer. The lucky winner of this project need not come up with the descriptions, just make sure that they are entered, updated, and that units that don't have descriptions are constantly brought to the attention of team members with a ball peen hammer if necessary.

Re: Unit Descriptions
I would say 'most' descriptions are in place.....but many are still wrong or missing. And yes, grammar and spelling should be checked for all. We'll help you with anything you have a problem with....and there is a thread in the DEV2 forum for unit descriptions. There is also the Unit descriptions thread here in the Beta forum where they are reported as wrong or missing.
It won't be as much of a job as you think...because a LOT is done.....it just needs some TLC and finishing.

Re: Unit Descriptions
As Im pretty much unavailable until late June (final exams) any help with these would be awesome. So here is the list, the crossed out ones are done/implamented (I may have missed a few). Just post your description here and a volenteer (Maximus Macro looks like the only one so far) can add it to the export_units.txt
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
rory has requested that the Roman units are his to work on. Remember to spell check and grammar check etc. Hopefully other members can come along and critique descriptions to make sure that they are all good.
This is one of the last hurdles, so lets make it a sprint finish and not a clumsy trip over like this
Thanks.

Re: Unit Descriptions
hi to begin with just 1 question what is this : the ( \n\n ) that apears in many beginnings of sentences is this a flaw or part of the desciption.and also where can i find the missing descriptions that needs to be putt in there right place
{celtohellenic_hoplite} celtohellenic hoplite
{celtohellenic_hoplite_descr}
Primary Armor = Metal\nHardy\n\nThe Massilian hoplites are drawn from amongst the allied areas of the Independent Greek Cities. They fight for Massilia and are proud to do so. Among the ranks of these men are not only Greeks, but also some of the native Celts who have adopted Greek culture.\n\nThey bear the Triskelion, a symbol associated with Greek culture.

Re: Unit Descriptions
These:
\n = one space down
\n\n = two spaces down
The game reads them as an enter key, or two enter keys.
As far as where you'll find the missing descriptions, you need to be in the DEV2 forum to carry on this business. There is a unit description thread in there.
