Hi There,
I love the format of this game and I hope I'll be playing it for a long time to come.
Just one thing lets it down a bit: I've only been playing a few days and I've noticed quite a few typos in the text, for example, "81th" instead of "81st" and "It's" instead of "Its" (and vice versa).
Would it be possible for the text to be overhauled in order to correct these minor errors (which, for me, spoil an otherwise great game)?
Alternatively, is there any way I can access the text files and correct any errors myself?
Many thanks!

Many of the text files are accessible to everyone, though changing some of them may cause conflicts if you are playing any multiplayer games. Accessing the text files varies, so you'll need to let us know more specifically where the errors are.
If you post any errors you find, I'm sure the creator would appreciate it and make the appropriate corrections, and incorporate those changes into a later update.
Thanks
Rick

Many thanks for the replies. I'll keep a note of any typos and their location, and pass the info on. Thanks again. And I know what you mean about native Englsh speakers--I edit history books for a living and it can be a hard slog sometimes!

That would be "English."
Sorry, couldn't help it. [;)]
