Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

When a castle is sieged, commanders' order descriptions (at bottom of screen when you hover the mouse over an order) in that province get screwed up - "preach" says something about recalling the god, "empowerment" says something about destroying the lab, and "break siege" says something about a dark lord!

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

Hoburg champion's description says they are armed with maces, while in hact they have short swords. THe sprite looks as if it actually has a mace, so I don't know what the intention was.

divine title "Patron of Abitrators" -> Arbitrators

R'lyeh summon "Thing of many eyes" -> capital letters

Unexpected Event

"An annatural plague has swept the province, killing thousands. In the decaying corpses magic death gems were found. Rumors of the mythical Crown of Darkness has circulated the province ever since"

Should be unnatural .

A few things that are missing from at least my manual.

Magic Items

Elf Bane
Stone Sphere

Maybe if IW gets another Print Run for manuals they can do some of the typo adjustments http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif Or maybe just bag that whole section and spells and put them as PDF's http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

They are present in my manual

Elf bane, p 41
Stone sphere, p 46

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

King of Banefires' name is Antrax but in the description he is refered as Anthrax.

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

When besieging a castle, you get a message something like:

"We are tearing down the walls but need more time before sucess". (not sure of the exact wording, but I do recall that "success" is misspelled).

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

When you attempt to pillage a province and fail, you get a message like "Bitterwind tried to pillage Grey Mirks. 130 people were killed before they put managed to put up defences and repell the pillagers."

The first put should be removed, and repel has an extra l I believe.

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

On the Myrmidon and Myrmidon COmmander unit.

It says "Myrmidons wheild short sword and shields"

Should be:

Myrmidons wield ...

On the Supply Bonus Icon when popped up it says "Supply Bonuss"

Should be:

Supply Bonus

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

legionaries is misspelled as "legionaires" everywhere.

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Actually "legionnaire" is the correct word, meaning "a member of a legion". "Legionary" actually means "of, relating to, or constituting a legion" - it is an adjective, not a noun - so Illwinter is quite correct to use "legionnaire".

In Pythium short-description I read "Pythium uses Legionaires" while in Ermor's one i read "Ermor uses Legionnaires", I suppose if one is correct the other isn't. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Should be: Dagon, The Renegade Sage has left us and is seeking employment with other nations.

Also the spell description for Smite Demon has a typo divine bold should be divine bolt.

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

Anytime you siege a castle and - it says something like "We have started to destroy the castle walls but we need more time to succed "

"succed" should be "succeed"

Marshmaster's description text reads "...they also follows Paths of..."; should be "follow".

Now that elemental armor has been changed, the text should reflect that, and go from "immune" to "resistant".

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

I honestly can't believe I'm STILL finding grammatical errors in this game. I found another one having to do with Bogus the Troll but I forgot to write it down and forget what is was. Is English not Illwinter's primary language?

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">No its not. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
Its also not the primary language, or even the language at all, for the beta testers. There a few English checkers that help alot in that area But feel free to keep posting any grammatical errors you find.

Special site 'Archaic Fortress' is spelled as 'Arkaic' at the Fort Statistics screen.

Description of Growth/Death -scale says: "Many a calf is stillborn, ...".

Should it say: "Many calves are stillborn, ..." ?

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

nah, "many a calf is stillborn" is good, somewhat archaic, english.

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

Not serious typos as such but I have discovered the following ones.


Additional effects associated with various weapons:

Unconsiousness --&gt; Unconsciousness.
Area1 holyfire --&gt; Area Holyfire

Various effects are spelled inconsistently, with all of the words capitalized in some, only some words capitalized in others and no words capitalized at all in others (e.g. crusherknack, Extra chest wound, Fire Bonds). If mod commands are case sensitive, this might be an issue in making mods when weapons are added (assuming special effects can be added to weapons in the first place). A good fix would be to just capitalize all words except prepositions and "and" in the relevant places.

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

Atlantean scout has no description text.

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

The Witch is said to require both a Laboratory and a Temple, but only the Laboratory is actually needed. The Witch in question was recruited in a Hidden Forest, and has one Earth and one Nature.

Speaking of the Atlantian Scout, this unit is also the standard scout for R'lyeh. Is it intended to be so?

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

The description of the Moloch says he will "make its inhabitants slaughter one other". It should be "one another".

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

I think so. R'lyeh uses enslaved Atlantian troops, like the slave troopers and meteorite guards, so why not Atlantian scouts? Saves the trouble of making a separate scout unit for them. After all, most nations have the same scout unit, monster #426, it's just been defined into their unit selections. I suppose the reason the Atlantian scout doesn't have a description text is that R'lyeh and Atlantis are supposed to be mortal enemies and it'd be difficult to come up with a short description that was nation-specific and accommodated both nations at the same time. I suppose I could try and write one and forward that to Illwinter to see if they think it's good enough to be included in the game.

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

Ok, this annoyed me. The "Power of the Eye" scenario says:

"The player who takes control over the Desert Eye or the Void Gate wins."

This is a lie! I just started playing the scenario SP as Ulm, and I happened to start near the Desert Eye, so I just built a big army, hired lots of mercs and crashed into there and managed to successfully storm the place on turn 20 or thereabouts. And I didn't win! Victory condition is 2 points and I found out that each site is worth 1 victory point, so you need both sites!

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

Hmm. Thats bad I suppose. I do not even remember what was intended anymore. Only one should do fine.

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

Very little typo:
The hoburg commander is described to have a mace but it is depicted (and has) a shortsword.

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

The Capricorn does not have a description. I have only seen this unit in Gandalf's random maps however, and so do not know how to recruit it (or can it be actually recruited somewhere? I have yet to see it through "normal" means).

Re: Dominions II In-Game Typos
 

This is one of the new units that looks like it fits with an underwater Pangaea/Atlantis theme, complete with Icthysatyrs and such.
