Unit description and other written errors

[Paedric]

Please post here anything related to unit descriptions.

For now, there is no need to post missing descriptions; I'm gonna add the last ones next week.
I'll will remove all the garbages before the descrptions, like primary_armour = flesh.


Thanks guys.

I was going to post this in the bugs thread but i guess it belongs here:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Now i only have basic understanding of norse mithology but i believe it was valhala?

[Paedric]

Do you mean the 'w' in walhala?
If so, i believe both are good.

[Greve Af Göteborg]

The correct word is Valhöll, which is roughly translated into "Hall of the slain".

It's an enormous hall in Asgard (Ásgarðr) where half of the dead would be led to by valkyries, the hall is ruled by the god Odin (Óðinn)
Walhalla is the german word while Valhalla is the english word, personally I'd like the norse word more Valhöll.

[Paedric]

What if I put Valhöll (Walhala/Valhala)? Is it old norse or proto-germanic?

[apple]

Well as the Cimbri is germanic I would use Walhalla.

[Greve Af Göteborg]

Valhöll is old norse, but as Apple said, since the Cimbri are germanic it would be more suitable to use the germanic word Walhalla.

[Legionary Titus Pullo]

not strickly a unit, but a spelling error

Ancillary - "Greek Pretender"

".... in the recent demise of his ennimies...."

[Paedric]

As soon as the export_unit file get updated, please report missing description, or small ones consisting of only the name of the unit.
Also, anything like a \ or n or \ n.
Plus things that look strange, and whatever else you noticed.

Thanks!

In custom Battle :

[saxdude]

why do you have the RTW background?, you should use thexe in your launcher folder.

[sithlord447]

he probably just does not have the -nm on the launcher as by default it is not there

[Paedric]

@Super_newbie_pro : What is the problem with the description?

It might be good to put it by default there, since it will be the same with many people once RS is out.

[saxdude]

I think that in the unit description in the image its spelled nabataean when below the units name is spelled nabatean.

[Paedric]

Oh, I didn't notice, shame on me.
But please next time, point what's wrong, it will be easier for me.

Macedonian Hypaspists say they are pikemen about 3 times in their description, which they aren't. They fight in the overhand hoplite style.

[Legionary Titus Pullo]

Legion name error

"legioiv flavia felix" the name needs a space after "Legio"

Where did you see that? The unit description is fine?

That's the 'coded' name of the Legion in export_units, and export_descr_units.txt. It links the description to the unit to the unit cards.
