    Default Grammatical error in This year in history

    Dont know if there is already a forum for really small errors so I made a new one. I was reading the yearly history thing in EB1 and noticed an error. It's small but I thought you may want to know for EB2. IT says that macedonian troops is instead of are. sorry if I post this in the wrong place.

    Theres is also another one in the Akontistai description, it says akonistai without the T, but i imagine they would have corrected it already, or given it a new description from scratch

    I noticed a lot of typo's during my time playing. However you should edit it yourself because I dont think anyone is making work of it.

    Sometimes typos can be fun. The word might sound silly, you can create a new definition of this new, funny sounding word or you can flex your skill at manipulating the language. I like to do all three, but my grammar is probably as bad as the next guy...

    There is a grammar-minded mod in the works; I worked a bit on it. Hopefully, I and the creator will be able to finish it during the summer.

    Yeah, EB is a bit... infamous for its grammar. But heeeey, I think the team got a lot of spelling goons as a result of that, so we will likely not see this replicated in EB2.

    You can always post this errors here, so the team can fix them for future releases. All I need is the exact file, unit type, and a possible correction.
