I played with the French translation : I can help to update some dialogs.
Hi, thanks for the offer to help with translation! Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help you with your dialog updates.

12. What story images you think should be added/removed?
13. What were the Lorin's questions to the Oracle?
14. Why Lorin left Gawen in 19a scenario (entering Okladia)
1. 1.16.05
2. Akladian Clansman
3. 7
4. 4
5. I remember in the 2nd scenario that Lady Lorin disappeard if she passed on the guillotine.
6. Some objectives should be compulsory, "Conclusion" revealed, in my case, that I didn't discovered which Akladian lord sent a hitman, who poisoned Gawen's mother and that I didn't save Reme Carrenemoe.
7. It was long enough.
8. Some units should be improved, for example the Akladian Wiseman's evolutionary line, which is completely unbalanced compared to all the other ones (it should be similar to the Mage of Light's evolutionary line). Then, I hated when Ruvio revealed that Karen was executed, along with all the other Freetowners. She was known for always sneaking out, despite her father's objections, why didn't she try to join the party before "Trapped"? Then, the end was very bitter, since Gawen failed to change Akladian hideous and male chauvinist traditions, couldn't do anything to protect Lorin from their warped people and Deorien, who wasn't much better, and lived a miserable life with an unknown princess whom he never loved and never gave him children. At the beginning of the campaign I hoped Gawen and Lorin ended up together (in the beginning she said she was only a bit older than him), later I hoped the same thing for Karen and Gawen, as well as Lorin and Majid. Long story short, I was very disappointed.
9. I think not, but the Italian translation (I don't know about the other languages) should be fixed, sometimes the campaign is bilingual.
10. No.
11. It could if the story didn't mess up.

Code: Select all

[spoiler][/spoiler]
12. Add/replace the portraits of Akladian Warrior, Light Infantry, Chieftain, Lord, Sturmknight, Darknite, Wiseman, Holyman, Wonderman, Soul, Old, Novice and Orcish Shamans, Brigand, Outlaw Raider (the latters' sprites are awful), Old Peasant Woman, Karen's sprite, City Militia, Oracle (who, in the campaigns data, is considered male) and Lord Bor Cryne's sprite.
13. She asked about her future, knowing that she'd have married a Hagarthen, become a queen and given him a child, but not necessarily the Hagarthen who was her husband.
14. Because she did something terrible more than a month before, something she can't tell her fellows. Ruvio thinks she's ill since the day before, suspecting she's been poisoned by an Akladian unit. But later, if you're intuitive, you can figure out alone.

Hm, this one might actually be a bug with one of my additions; she was just supposed to move aside there when moved onto it, so that the player could see what she's talking about... were all the tiles around it already filled?
6. Some objectives should be compulsory, "Conclusion" revealed, in my case, that I didn't discovered which Akladian lord sent a hitman, who poisoned Gawen's mother and that I didn't save Reme Carrenemoe.
Pretty sure szopen intentionally made it the way it is to encourage replayability

Yeah unfortunately saving Karen is one of the things that szopen says shouldn't be changed (at least, not without changing the name of the campaign as well)...

Whoops, looks like you're right about the Oracle; that should be an easy fix. Anyways as for the rest of them, I've put out a call for commissions for some of them, so hopefully the artists I'm commissioning will come back with something good...
Edit: portraits for the Orcish Shamans, Oracle, and female village elder should be coming in this pull request: https://github.com/nemaara/A_New_Order/pull/76

(the [spoiler][/spoiler] tags go around the actual spoilers btw; I fixed it in my quoting here)

As for the portraits, I warn you about that

No portrait
Independant unit uses the portrait of another line
Two or more units of the same branch share a portrait
Portrait available but needs a tweak or could be replaced
  • Akladian Clansman, Warrior and Light Infantry
  • Akladian Fastfoot
  • Akladian Pikeneer
  • Akladian Leader's lineage
  • Akladian Homeguard's lineage
  • Akladian Raider's lineage
  • Akladian Wiseman's lineage
  • Lord Bor Cryne's sprite
  • Brigand's lineage
  • City Militia
  • Oracle
