i found a grammar mistake in game ui
in r+ as allies
it says
"You're troops on on their way. Prepare to reinforce!"
i thought it's "Your" not "You're"
the evidence is on some txts in my coh directory

EIR_battle-2107_player-k42376.txt

EuropeInRuins Initialization - OnInit
Battle ID: 2107
Players: 4
Local Player: k42376 (1000)
Local Race: allies (1)
Set tmpstr for 0, 0, Allied.
Show message: You're troops are on their way.  Prepare to reinforce!

i only copy this because there are too many texts in the files

Yeah I think that text definitely does need to change, as more often than not the mode isn't clear and we all end up asking on vent to make sure if we all are coming in at once or piecemeal.

I believe for R+ Mode, it needs to say something like 'Reinforcements are enroute, hold the line!'

Meeting engagement should be like 'Command has ordered a full deployment, all companies forward' (can't be more clear than that, right? ^^)

And attack and defend should obviously be something like 'Dig in and prepare for enemy assault / Our troops are now rallying for the assault, stand by!'

My 2 cents anyway, totally dislike the current wording we have for those modes in game, it can't be that big a deal to just change text is it?

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.

So I think it's the time for my conclusion.
They need to change the texts.
And I think I have the right replacing texts:
Allied Attack:
(1)Recon spots Axis troops defending the area, orders are to breakthough the defences at all cost!
(2)Battalion has ordered to set up a defence line to hold against the upcoming Allied attack expected.
Axis Attack:
(Change the sentence above)
Reinforcements Mode:
(1)Battalion has ordered to engage the enemy with lead elements, engage the enemy until reinforcements arrive.
(2)Your troops are on their way to support the lead elements, be ready to command them.
Meeting Engagement
(1)Intels report enemy movement in the area, your orders are to seek and destroy the enemy!
That's it.
Give me advises about my replacing texts.

I would delete the highlighted word or put it in place of upcoming.. The rest is perfect. I like it.
