Articles
Greetings, I would appreciate anyone who spots mis-translations and grammatical errors within the Module, if you wish to assist that would be great!
To start it off, first you should write the thing you believe is incorrect or you want to change it to a more accurate term, regardless of how minor it is. Afterwards write the phrase corrected to the best extent of your abilities.
Use this for example:
(Old phrase with issues) -- (New phrase fixed by you)
Example:
(If you see tis bug, report to) -- (If you've seen this bug message, please report it to the developers.)
I will proof read each issue and apply it to future patches if its sufficient.
You may also come to Discord to discuss if you wish.

Cool mod. Just a few questions:
-How do you read books in your inventory? There's no option in the camp menu like in vanilla.
-On some of your pictures, it shows loads of soldiers. Yet ingame, the battle size limit is the same as vanilla. Is there something else?
-Is there a way to order your troops to form into different formations? The formation mechanic seems strangely absent.
How do you meet lord inside the castle ?
Can't run this mod :( it says "Unable to open file : CommonRes\wb_mp_objects_a brf", how to solve it ??? I really wanted play the tainted paths mod
