Manual typos/edit suggestions

[RedwoodForest]

I figured it would be good to consolidate manual typos into one thread. If the developers disagree, please feel free to delete.

I am reading the manual with an editor's eye as carefully as possible. I hope that it is helpful to the developers. Typos from the manual that I've found so far:

Page 17: Period missing after "USSR" at the end of the first paragraph.

Page 17: "king Alfonso XIII" should have a capital "King" as it's part of his formal title.

Page 17: Comma needed after "reflecting Europe" as a gerundive phrase.

Page 18: "However, their help would take months to arrive." Should replace "their" with "Stalin's" or "his" to be more precise, as "their" could refer to Stalin or Europe.

Page 18: "Furthermore, in the government of the republic there was a power vacuum in the first months of the war, because the workers and union members, who had ended the military coup in cities like Madrid and Barcelona took justice into their own hands, by not obeying the orders of the government." Remove the comma after "hands" and place it after "Barcelona." There should be a comma after "republic." Remove the comma after "war."

Page 18: Single apostrophe followed by a double around "tallies of communism."

Page 18: American should be capitalized before "american journalist."

Page 18: l said at any price. Should be "I said at any price." (l instead of an I and missing quotation marks)

Page 18: "The use of tanks, bombing of cities, air support for ground units where all tests the Germans drew many conclusions from." Should be a "were" instead of "where."

Page 18: Very bottom -- there should be a space between "battles" and "As" starting a new sentence.

Page 19: "l can no longer aspire." Should be "I can no longer aspire."(l instead of an I)

Page 19: "...rest of the country. With the help of..." Should not be two sentences. The final sentence of the paragraph becomes a fragment.

Page 19: "...how to wage war, until the conflict..." Comma splice. Comma should be removed.

Page 21: Swap "Although" with "However," including the comma, in order to introduce the sentence. "Although" sets up a subordinating clause that requires another clause that doesn't exist.

Page 21: "...the games AI..." Should be "...the game's AI..."

Page 21: "Though it is possible..." Should be replaced with "However," or "Granted," including the comma. See two points above.

Page 22: "...organizes it’s forces..." Should be "...organizes its forces..."

Page 43: "The exit game button will, when clicked, exits War in Spain 1936-39, and returns you to your desktop." Should be "exit" and "return."

Page 45: "AI Games – One player, (Nationalist or Republican), vs the computer, (Nationalist or Republican)." No need for commas.

Yeah, there might be some things that were missed. However chances are that they won't be fixed right away....GP

Hey gang,
rather than do my own post, ill just piggy bank off this one.

Manual says to see 7.6.4 under Pilots.

However the manual goes from 7.6 to 7.7 right away, there is no in between.

I do see a Pilot screen under 7.7.3.

Not a big deal, it's a huge manual, typos were bound to happen but just wanted to point it out for the next update.

Cheers.

The manual and the code and the data are always being fixed, continuously, though we hope the fixes start to slow down eventually, so we can churn out some other titles to fix !!
