Need help with unit descriptions?

[gooby]

I kind of want to give more back to the community than just bug reports. Earlier I had talked with someone about providing descriptions for some UMC units but it never went anywhere unfortunately so I'm here to turn that around.

I'm good with words—did real well on the GRE and whatnot—and know a few languages other than English. So I can for example translate a good German description into English ... maybe not the other way yet, not confidently, but translations to English are a possibility in that case. I can also write novel English descriptions.

If you have units that lack a good description, or know about others' units where this is an issue, please indicate them to me, and we'll see about what would make a good description. Of particular importance is what you want to be emphasized about a given unit; otherwise I might possibly choose the wrong features. For example the current Elvish Champion description in English mentions his swordsmanship, which is a no-brainer, but also other attributes that might not be as obvious. The distinction between him and the rest of the Elvish race as particularly martial also enters the description. I might not have thought about that. So the key to a good description is drawing attention the right things.

I eagerly await your replies.

If I remember it correctly, there were some Windsong units who lacked descriptions; if you wish, I'd love to write them
Other than those Windsong, which units need description? If it's one from a faction I'm better familiarized with, I could write them as well.

Since you're interested... the Southerners faction needs descriptions.

I'm not familiar with them, but they seem to be another version of the UtBS elves? I'll think of some descriptions...

Sorry for letting almost a week pass before answering. I have been helping the maintainer of Antar and giving feedback to LotI as well. I'll PM you and we can go from there.
