You’d think that knowing that there are dozens of releases every year that spell checking and such would be #1 on the list of things to do because you only get one chance to for a first impression …

@osbad while there is a certain level of fuzzy-ness (sp?) in rules is acceptable there is something to be said for having rules that just work without having to use a house rule.

@jahatch28 grognard or not … there is something to be said for having the correct names for things.
Calling something a ‘testudo formation’ when it isn’t doesn’t make for a good impression.
I do understand that non-grognards / casual historical players like me can live with those mistakes, but when you’re looking at this as a potential gateway to more authentic/simulation rule systems that is very bad.

oh … and I do know that #squirrel / #needMoreShiny all too well. If the SPQR marketing had been  a touch better I’d have ordered a copy myself, because a skirmish level dark-ages/ancients/mythic setting is missing on my ever-growing-stack-of-rules/systems.
