We are collecting mistakes of Chinese language files at our forum.
It may take some time…We will do it as soon.
“The Art of War” campaign, tooltip for the fast-castle challenge on the top right corner.
“Build order” should have been translated to “建造顺序” (‘order’ in the sense of ‘sequence’) instead of “建造命令” (‘order’ in the sense of ‘command’) here.
Description: In the BOTH Traditional and Simplified Chinese of Steam achievements page, it says players need to destroy all Rome castle within 30mins in fifth Alaric mission “Kingdom of our own” for achievement “Rome Was Destroyed in One Day”, which should be forth mission.
I already post it in TC issue post, I repost it here as well.
Platform: Steam

The following report is just all unit name. I can’t post more than one image.
_ Build number: 5753, 5055 Location of text: Unit name “Torch A (Convertable)” “Torch B (Convertable)” Description: “可招降” this word can be only used for human, not a torch. Should be “可转化”.
_ Build number: 5553 Location of text: Unit name “Dire Wolf” Description: “恐狼” is the name of a prehistoric animal. Should be “恶狼”.
_ Build number: 5700 Location of text: Unit name “Camel” Description: “骆驼兵” means “Camel Rider”, but it’s just a single camel. Should be “骆驼”.
_ Build number: 5339 Location of text: Unit name “Aachen Cathedral” Description: “牦牛” means “Yak”, an animal name. Should be “亚琛大教堂”.
_ Build number: 5034, 5035 Location of text: Unit name “Target A” “Target B” Description: When the “Target” means an object that people practise shooting at, Chinese call it “箭靶”.
_ Build number: 5121, 5607 Location of text: Unit name “Villager (Male)” “Villager (Female)” Description: “Male"↔"Female”, “男"↔"女”, “男性"↔"女性”. Current text looks informal.
_ Build number: 5737, 5465 Location of text: Unit name “Map Revealer” “Moveable Map Revealer” Description: “全开地图” means “Reveal Map”, an action, not a item. Should be “地图启示者”(Map Revealer), “可移动的地图启示者”(Moveable Map Revealer).
_ Build number: 5228 Location of text: Unit name “Gallow” Description: “托架” is an industrial equipment. The structure to hang and kill people should be “绞架”.
_ Build number: 5722, 3910, 3826, 3710 Location of text: Unit name “Javelina” and tooltips where it has been mentioned. Description: Current text “西貒野猪” just looks like “Javelina Boar”. Should be “西貒”, but this character “貒” missed in DE fonts.
_ Build number: 5433 Location of text: Unit name “Town Center (Packed)” Description: “(已装备)” is confusing, should be “(组装)” just like “巨型投石机 (组装)”( Trebuchet (Packed) ).
_ Build number: 5043 Location of text: Unit name “Photonman” Description: “装备激光武器的人” is very wordy. I think “激光侠” is a better translation, just like “蝙蝠侠” to Batman, “钢铁侠” to Iron Man.
Simplified Chinese font is not complete, many words will be displayed as question marks like “?”, and the Chinese symbol is displayed as a block like"□"
This problem exists in all places where Chinese is displayed, such as game text, chat and editor.
