Will there be language translations

I am a member of a great, German Forum Strategycon Interactive.
And I know from many posts, many members speak poor English, if at all.

In Decisive Campaigns: Barbarossa is so much text, and recurrent text, that I fear many German-speaking players with poor English skills will waive the purchase.

just been asked the same over on the other site at Slitherine

Interesting game!

Is there a plan to translate with a patch or similar in future the game to german language?

Templer, you do better in English than i do in German mein Freund

I suspect the word count will make it way too expensive and its only likely if a fan made translation pops up. I'm not even sure if the code would support it, so Vic would need to answer that.

But you see the point.
Not everyone is a English language artist.
Such players have to translate a lot of words while playing. And they have to do it constantly...

Its not in the planning. There is just so much text. And on top of that lots of procedural creation of final texts. All in all I would not lot look forward to making this possible.
