Even the screenshots on the official site are rife with typos and misspellings. Not that it affects the gameplay, but does anyone know if those were cleaned up prior to release?

"combat malus" --> minus

Actually, I don't think the word "malus" is a mispelling. I vaguely remember that word meaning "penalty" or "negative", but not seen or used in years.
I can't remember if the term was used in an old version of Dungeons and Dragons rulebook when explaining stat bonuses, or some kind of latin term to do with Banking/Insurance/Finance that was drummed into me during Economics class at school.
