“A group of visiting heroes have decided to rid this province from your unfair rulership”. I’d say Visiting heroes have, or A group of visiting heroes decided.
You overlooked "rid from". It should be "rid of".

Quote:
“Heavy snowfalls has blocked important mountain roads”. Have.
I beg to differ. It's "snowfalls" that should be changed to "snowfall".

Quote:
“A grand festival was held in your honour”. Replace by honor.

[AND]

In different Messages: replace defence by defense.

[AND]

“An old tower surrounded by wisps of mist was found on a high mountaintop. The owner of the tower agreed to help you for a meagre fifty pounds of gold and a couple of virgins”. Replace meagre by meager.

[AND]

“Trolls living under bridges have killed and eaten travellers crossing the bridges”. Travelers.


Nope. Ever heard of this island Kingdom called Britain, friend?

Oh, and my additions:
In English, nationalities etc. are ALWAYS capitalized ("Swede" instead of "swede", for example). Thus, nationalities, nations, etc. have to start with a capital letter even if in the middle of a sentence.

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.
If the testers are Swedish, they know English. Trust me on that. Oh, and it's supposed to be "it's", not "its" in that context.

By the way, I can't believe people don't even capitalize letters in a thread on typoes and grammatical errors...
