I'm not even going to try using French, but I believe if you want to use the English expression it's 'prophet of doom'. It's 'onheilsprofeet' in Dutch, and I've seen the term 'prophet of doom' in multiple games already. Neither appears in my sucky dictionary though. :(

Of course if it's just two random words thrown together, go ahead. :D

question plus finaude :

voila un item de l'acte 9 :

"Sorrowrity Robe"

Comme vous le voyez, y a un jeu de mots entre Sorrority et Sorrow.

Un big merci a celui qui m'en trouve une version compréhensible en francais :D

Let's see...I got A in French GCSE...but I don't want to embarrass myself here, so I'll go English. ;)
Herald of Doom is fine, and a good change form the smae old "Prophet of Doom" thing.
<childlike joy>I love reading topics in French (on the general discussion forum someone posted a couple of links), words like "alors," "le forum", and "attention" look so cool!</childlike joy>

Btw, if you need any help in Spansih translation, I'd be willing to help. I'm half-Bolivian, so I learned Spanish alongside English. It'd be good chance to ue Spanish too. ;)

Yep but ppl'd think Joel just sucks at English...

As for the other Q: I tried... called upon my French dictionary & thesaurus... does not seem to be an easy, obvious translation. :( Unless anyone else except the one person on the planet who knows less French than me (my old French teacher) has a better idea. :/

I Think I'll let the english name as it and drop a french "Robe des Soeurs de la Douleur"

And man !! these

'Armure de Cérémonie Impériale de Protection +5" barely fits onto my D2 screen ...

Actually: no, you are very understandable, but seeing as 'Prophet of Doom' seems to be a standard English expression, using 'Herald of Doom' might make ppl think you intended it as Prophet of Doom and translated it incorrectly. :)

Heh, don't worry about name length, it won't overflow/crash that easily. I gambled a 'Thrak Shiva Branded Sedmai Ceremonial Full Plate of the Seven Arches of Latharien' once. That's 81 characters for +1 cold damage and +1 defense. :) I think the cap is at 127...

(Edit: will it be possible for ppl using the int'l version of DT to run the French version of Cabal Wars? I think I'm going to use that one for a change :) )

well i dunno. I know that you can force the game to use the english settings cause it's distributed with every mpq.

Well at least I'll use the old trick to put my french tbl into the eng folder ...
and I think it should rocks :D

OK, just checked for the name length, dropped a :

"Armure de cérémonie Laerkayi implacable de resistance +5"
still no crash ...

Pour les 1er, attendons voir si avec plus de temps, de meilleures idées surviennent.

Pour Eowyn Hylemoon, j'avais pensé à Eowyn face de lune, mais ça pourrai coller que si elle est "evil". Le qualificatif n'est pas tres flatteur.

Eowyn, ça me dit qqchose, c'est pas elle qui avait mis une tête à un certain seigneur des nazgul ??
J'ai comme l'intuition qu'elle se range dans le camp des gentils. :P

Bref je continue à réfléchir...
