It is more challenging to look at your present situation and see exactly what your lessons are. Looking into the future is the most difficult. Wishing that you had already graduated from the school of life does not accelerate your progress or make the lessons any easier.

To be totally fair, the expression “Esprit d’corps” does exist; it’s a way to translate into writing how “esprit de corps” is usually pronounced with some accents (and particularly of the acute accent of Paris). This leads to shades of a Ganymede crewed by parisians street urchins of the 1900s or Clemenceau’s mobile police brigades being issued one (cue to “the Les brigades du Tigre”‘s theme). But anyway, using the full “Esprit de corps” is better for a written document.

Stopping notpicking, I’m really liking those extracts, what informations they give on the universe and how the layout gives a good 1900s feel. Thumbs up !

Thanks for the comments, Hakkonen. We have a pretty strenuous proofing process and we often have native speakers…in the case of Leviathans many of the playters are native speakers of several of the factions and have helped out in that regard.

At the end of the day, of course, some are going to slip through no matter how hard you try…but I keep trying.

Thanks for the proofing!

Augh! Randall, don’t get me wrong, I love Catalyst’s products, but for the love of great Cthulhu, 1) hire a proofreader, and 2) if you’re going to have text in a foreign language, have it looked over by someone who speaks the language in question. As Elwin pointed out, the phrase is “esprit de corps.” A d-with-apostrophe is used only in front of a word beginning with a vowel (“d’esprit”). That’s going to bug me every time I look at it.

I don’t know if you read the Dumpshock forums at all, but CGL has a well-earned reputation as “the gang that can’t spell or punctuate.” As someone evidently concerned with polish and quality, I would imagine that this bothers you. Little things like this make a huge difference.

Just another link for inspis:
a famous revanchist french song about Alsace Lorraine, illustrated with a lot of picture of the end of the nineteenth century.

Great stuff. Your context looks fun, and the style of the layout is appropriate. As an archivist IRL I love the bill of fount you used.
(Esprit d’corps-> Esprit de corps; by the way).

Go on!

Toolian…hoping next week to upload higher rez images into the Gallery section.

Mathew…spring is the best we can say at this time… And yes, I’m starting to jot down ideas for an RPG…but when it’ll publish, well let’s get the miniatures game out first and see how it goes…but if it does well the skies the limit on where we might take it.

Topa, people keep mentioning Last Exile…really need to check that.

Thanks for the continued enthusiastic responses/questions!
