Should be "laborers". Thanks for pointing it out.nweismuller wrote:The part that sounds odd to me is 'slave labors' in reference to slaves. I'd probably remove the plural on that, since 'labor' in this context is a collective noun.

Unsure if this has been reported previously.
The last word in this paragraph does not need the 's.

The implied text is:Serenitis wrote:Unsure if this has been reported previously.

"Their determined colonists are able to make better use of airless or inferno worlds than any other species's [colonists]." It's a classic sentence construction, e.g. "your house is bigger than his". Admittedly the whole "s's" looks clumsy; personally I'd use " species' " here but there's no actual grammatical rule about this, it's just a question of style.
Though I suppose you could rephrase it as "than those of any other species" to avoid the issue.
Re: Please Report Missing and/or Placeholder Text
The possessive is correct; the subject is the Yoral's colonists, so it's correct to refer to other species' colonists. I think it's also technically acceptable to use 's even on words that end in s, but I agree that I would prefer to use just " species' ".

This was from a game where I integrated Phidi as Gremak.

Defense Network tech description: "... locations which were previously though useless...". I suppose should be "thought".

Notification about won space battle says "Our ships were victorious", even when all you had in battle was ground defences. Suggest to replace "ships" with "forces".
Re: Please Report Missing and/or Placeholder Text
The description for bionomics says "the ability purposefully alter the organisms in our environment will make denser population more sustainable", a "to" should be inserted between "ability" and "purposefully".
The description for ground units says "Maintinance" instead of "Maintenance".

Re: Please Report Missing and/or Placeholder Text
In the description for "Planet Fertility", there are two different links for "Garden". The first, in the second paragraph, works fine. It leads to "Garden World". However, the second, in the third paragraph that's an aside about the Orthins, the link is just to "Garden", and result in an error page that says
<missing INFO[Garden]>.
<missing INFO[Garden]>.

Grammar nitpick in the text that pops up when you click on a stargate icon:
I suppose the text for the relic stargate was copy-pasted and the "ancient" adjective was removed but the "an" article was forgotten about.

The text for planetary defenses says "Maintining <DEFENSES> becomes increasingly expensive" instead of "Maintaining".

When encountering a lost tinker colony, text in the pop-up dialog says: "They are a race cybernetic organisms calling themselves the Tinkers." Seems "of" after "race" is omitted.
