This is only a minor problem for a senior civer, but I hope Apolyton asks me to translate CTP 3 into German.

1. The first ship you get is a galley. At least it looks like one. In the german version its "Korvette" = corvette.

2. A slaver has the option to capture slaves (enslave) In the german version its "Sklavenaufstand" = slave uprising, which is something an abolitionist is doing.
But the function is OK - he is enslaving.

I know my English is only good enough for this chat room
But if they pay a translator, he should think of what he is doing.

To be continued...
I am still BC in my first game.
