The description for the "High Gravity" planet trait:

"... if specialized engineering is not performed with adequete paranoia" should be adequate.

Description for Nomios:

"This is a strange insular polity displays disproportionate wealth." Should either be "This is a strange insular polity that displays disproportionate wealth" or "This strange insular polity displays disproportionate wealth".

Another one, description fort the Tarsus-class freighter:

"... presumably to supply frontiers and those front line fleets send to quash..." should be 'sent'.

Also, 'TriPad' is occassionally written 'tripad'. Most notably in the desperate bar trader event where "X stares glumly at their tripad", whereas in the dishevelled academic event it's consistently written as 'TriPad'.

EDIT:

The description for Fikenhild:

"... the King is powerful, yes, but the hearts of the people are mercurial and may be moved to ." Seems like the sentence isn't finished.

The description for Athulf:

"Court dress is extravagent..." should be 'extravagant'.

David likes to mix American and British spellings. Another example would be Jangala's description, 'kilometres' instead of 'kilometers'.

It's so mixed up now I think trying to pick out every one is an exercise in futility.

When paying back a loan to a Tri-Tach loan shark:

"... and recognizes you immediatly." Should be 'immediately'.

There's also cases where punctuation marks are placed behind quotations instead of before (e.g. "how dare you"!), IIRC there's quite a few in the Red Planet quest line's dialogue.

Prices for upkeep of Patrol HQ and Tech-mining is not the same on 100% hazard planet.

Patrol HQ - build menu 6400, tooltip 3200:



Tech-Mining - build menu 1600, tooltip 800:



Actually on the planet Patrol HQ structure cost 4000 minus faction imports ~ 2952 so both info's is wrong.

Two errors spotted, one of spelling and the other of grammar. Areas affected will be italicized with the names of the sections emphasized in bold.

Ground Defenses
A dispersed, semi-autonomous network of small, hidden weapon installations which makes the prospect of a direct ground assault and even simple raids extremely costly to the attacker. Only overwhelming orbital bombardment or massively disproportionate active screening can supress these defenses.

Fikenhild Secondary Description
The system of Westernesse is traditionally ruled by a popularly elected 'king' whose holding of court - handling of certain primary executive and judicial functions - is broadcast in the local system as entertainment. It is considered essential that the King of Westernesse be wise, just, and above all entertaining. Most potential excesses of the system are constrained by a culture of alternately raucous and sentimental audience participation segments; the King is powerful, yes, but the hearts of the people are mercurial and may be moved to .

Problems to be resolved are: Supress should be changed to suppress, and to should be changed to too.

The description of the Ion Storm anomaly (found @ Aka Mainyu) says "<ost ships..." seems to be an extra non-word there.

The description for the Cryo sleeper encounter after you defeat the Guardian...

"The long-haul cryosystems were built to last for centuries of intersteller travel..." should be 'interstellar'.

Missed typo from the last round.

Description for Eventide when docking: "The prevailing ethos of Eventide (or the local inheritence laws, depending on who you ask) lends itself to..." should be 'inheritance'.

The star Arcadia doesn't have a description.
