Grammatical error
page 136 - Middle Age Ulm
..cavalry and large monsters while the bowmen get engage enemy archers and light troops.

"Get" should be removed, most likely.

Twiceborn - erroneous spell description

In-game description says it works only on slain mages, i.e. in combat.

Manual simply states "if caster dies in friendly dominion" .. what would include drowning, disease, etc..

But the spell works only in combat, actually, therefore the text in the manual should be changed to "caster slain (during a battle) in friendly dominion".

I know it worked on diseased commanders in Dom2, haven't got a chance to try it in Dom3

Would also be interesting to see if it brings them back from the dead from magic assassinations, magic arrows from afar, etc. If not - bug city, imo.

Some spells mention Def in the special box, but it isn't explained.

Some items mention Running, but it isn't explained.

EDIT:
On Page 74, battlefield movement doens't mention Flight's tactical teleporting. Also, the battle sequence seems to be out of order. Mages cast spells first, that's true, but fliers fly before missiles units fire missiles. If there is an order, archers should fire before fliers fly.

Twiceborn does, in fact, work out of combat, at least on mages dying of disease.

Also, I can't seem to find Lanka's national summons in the manual. Am I just missing it?

Lanka was added as a new nation in a patch, hence it was not in the manual.

Ah! That makes sense, then. Thank you. Is there a listing somewhere not in the manual, then?
