• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if any.
Right now, the travel action prompt and travel logs state that a character moves with "X friendly troops" even if they're moving with a mix of characters and friendly troops. This can be confusing for new players because the rulebook distinguishes characters from troops (e.g., only troops contribute to the number of dice rolled in battles, and only troops can die in battles).
Can the action prompt be updated to say "Add other characters and friendly troops to Travel" when both are present?
if at least 1 character but no friendly troops are present, it could say "Add other characters"
if friendly troops but no characters are present, it could say "Add friendly troops to Travel"
Can the travel logs be updated to say "with X other characters and Y friendly troops" when both are being brought along? (e.g., "Travel: playername moves Frodo & Sam to Plateau of Gorgoroth with 1 other character(s) and 1 friendly troop(s)")
If only bringing other characters along, it could just say "with X other characters"
If only bringing friendly troops along, it could just say "with Y friendly troops"
