Re: English clean-up
(The reason I looked at the language files in the first place was to see how it works and if a Japanese translation might be feasible. Some things would be tricky, like where it comes up with names for assassinations in the order of "(title) (name)" whereas in Japanese the titles would co...

The difference between male and female surnames is at the beginning of the word. The general rules to transform male -> female would be (in pseudocode): if mal...
