Ive been noticing some subtle typos here and there. Are they intended?

Ive actually taken the time on my third federation character to read each and every episode given carefully, and to follow each and every story path to its conclusion. I must say, while parts of this game still aggravate me here and there (thats every game, and every player, don't feel bad), your writing is fairly engaging. You have captured the spirit of the franchise in the descriptions and commentary through out the missions in ST:O. Well done.

There are a few places that have tripped me up, and I'm wondering if its something that could be looked into. I've noticed the problem primarily during the Romulan Front missions. When referring to factions in both explore, and storyline missions, it just feels like your tenses don't agree. This also crops up in conversation with various NPCs and BOs. For example, many times i will see "The USS Typo is under attack by the Romulan, Captain!" instead of Romulan*s*. I know its a slight change, but like i said, reading through the text, it tends to trip me up, and im sure other people as well.

Ive noticed this kind of thing heavy inside missions concerning Romulan and Reman opposition. It might be nice if instead of simply the being declared the Romulans to use their proper title and call them the Romulan Star Empire. There are a few times within the course of the Commander grades when i think this would have added a subtle, but important element to the mission.

I suggest having a dev read through the mission text for the zones, and see what flows, and what doesnt, making changes as necssiary. It doesn't sound like a fun job, even to me, but maybe it can be assigned to the dev that didnt refill the coffee pot after emptying it (Im looking at YOU SuperCrypticDave ;) ).
