Thomas MacDonough counter (American commander on Lake Champlain) for Amateurs to Arms! by Clash of Arms Games.

Thank you for your efforts at posting this translation! From what little Spanish that I know, it looks excellent. Two questions: why is the title of card 4, "Discovered Spring", not translated? Also, card 11, "Shaman", is not a word that is specific to Polynesian culture, like Maui, Pele or Taniwha. Is there a word in Spanish that can be its translation?

"Discovered spring" was one of the few titles I couldn't immediately think of how to translate, so I left it for later (after I translated the card texts), and then when I reviewed the titles I missed it (I think the other was Extensive Terracing, but I did remember that one). I'll correct it for next version (I think there are a few typos, also).

As for Shaman, it's a good question. It's not a word we use everyday, so I've mostly seen it in English-language works, or in works translated from English (also, it's a Brazilian heavy metal band, but they sing in English). I went now to Wikipedia, and apparently the correct word is Chamán, which makes sense, since as far as I know in Peninsular Spanish (that is, the variation spoken in Spain) the 'sh' sound doesn't exist. I'll correct that, too, and re upload.

Thanks for the comments
