      Sorry if this is a waste of time, but I believe that you can set the game's language to English (UK) or English (US), and I think I use English (UK), so anyway, when I produce air units they are called "airplanes" like in America, however in the UK they are called Aeroplanes.

      Countersuggestion: we change the name of the “English” localization to “American,” and remove any use of British spelling. No more confusion.
      RIP to the Brits, though. I think a lot of players are actually Englishmen, though. I think there are actually more Bri’ish people here than there are Americans.

      Sure there are, and not to sound rude, but what is your point here?
      Ranting about how I spent 13+ years of my life using "honor", but now I have to use "honour". Like c'mon, it's the same language ._.

      I suggest that we don't americize the world and fall into hell. Did the americans invent english that we have to use their language? It's like going to China and advertising Georgian

      Is it such a big deal? Let's focus on the game, not the language: "We are here for the moves, not for the names!" - Antonio Radich

      Seriously, what is the point in saying "There are more pressing matters at hand" or "Let's focus on the game, not the language"? If you think it should be implemented, please just like the thread, I completely agree with you that it is not a very important adjustment. Still, it could be quickly done, and I doubt that Bytro will think this needs any more urgency than every other suggestion.

    • I remember a thread, many years ago, where a girl was arguing against masculine pronouns in the victory messages... like "HE is being cheered by millions" and stuff like that. Everybody agreed and liked it, even Bytro people agreed to it and said it might be "they", with just the occasional vitriolic contrarian in between... just so glad no one actually bothered waisting developer time with it though.
      When the fake daddies are curtailed, we have failed. When their roller coaster tolerance is obliterated, their education funds are taken by Kazakhstani phishers, and their candy bars distributed between the Botswana youth gangs, we have succeeded.
      - BIG DADDY.
