One might argue that the omission of "Enter Site", "Corrupt Commander", "Seduce Commander" is a typo in the manual's list of commander orders. "Enter Site", at least, can be pretty important.

With the addition of themes, the "Black Laurel" description should be made more specific. Only Ashen Empire Ermor can revive Lictors, I think; Soul Gate does not appear to. So the description could be narrowed to only refer to Ermor (Ashen Empire).

In the Barbarian Kings Theme for T'ien Ch'i, Celestial Masters have a Leadership of 15 on the highlight; but in actuality when you build them they have 20 Leadership.

T'ien C'hi = Book
T'ien Ch'i = Game

I also noticed in the manual, many times there were missing commas, for example

"This, this and this." It shoudl really be:
"This, this, and this."

Did the one you checked get his random in fire? Each level of fire magic adds 5 to normal leadership. CM actually have 10 base leadership, +5 for their fixed point of fire. If they get a random in fire, that makes it 20. (If a S&A CM gets both his randoms in fire, that makes it 25, but that's only 1 chance in 64.)

Experience also increases leadership. I think commanders with 10 base leadership get +5 per star (at least for the first couple of stars - it might go up after that?)
