So OIPUN's add-on The add-on's files The files' contents Luttas's wrath I checked and apparently there's the exception that singular "Classical or religious names" ending in `s` may optionally omit the genitive `s`. But does Lutas really qualify as a classical/religious name? It's a made-up deity after all who only exists in the context of Widelands, so I'd rather argue he should be treated grammatically like any other name, with "Lutas’s" standard genitive form. (And the official campaign texts changed as well.) Edited: Yesterday 08:19 Top Quote

But if we do it this way we should definitly check the texts of the atlantean's scenarios as well. Top Quote

I am not an expert on english grammar myself, and it's the main language of my country, still the above table looks about right. We Aussies admittedly have our own take on english, so most of the time we actually MISUSE the apostrophe anyway. Que Cera Cera The aussies are coming, ya ho! ya ho! Top Quote

I do many errors, my English is not good. And when I really do a mistake no one corrects me. But when it comes to this kind of problem every one has a correct opinion. Can you find a mistake in this post? Top Quote

So far I have found your english to be excellent, and where there has been the odd minor error, I understood the meaning anyway. Edited: Today 00:17 The aussies are coming, ya ho! ya ho! Top Quote

Your fight simulator is still kind of "black box" for me, but I incorporated the wasted HPs (or wasted attack not sure how to call it) into my calculation, and here is the result. Still, the hero vs. hero fight is rather an artificial calculation. In a real game, even when played against AI, a player usually attacks with a mixture of half trained soldiers and heroes against mixture of half trained soldiers and heroes, in this case the ratio of wasted HPs can have a completely different value (something like the table I posted two days ago). In a random fight it should somehow compensate. In this case, the average values I counted should be more relevant. But I agree, when there is the possibility to have the hero vs. hero fight more balanced, why not to have it. I also recalculated the Sumatran warrior. The new values should be part of my next update. I hope the new values are fine, maybe I should do even better analysis later. Heroes Attachment: image/png Top Quote
