Hello, I did an Italian translation for this amazing mod. Would it be possibile to have it included in the next version?

[CamDawg]

Of course! You can post it here or send it to me in a PM.

Was Sound Defense changed somewhere along the way? I remember it being a pretty interesting weapon, but in my current game it is... lame? The description mentions a "potent enchantment," but a +2 short sword with a +1 bonus to one saving throw is rather forgettable. And is also unrelated to "sound." Didn't it used to simulate sonic damage, or something?

Don't meant to sound too critical. Just trying to confirm my memory that it used to be different.

If it was changed, it wasn't by me.

Thanks to @Coland, v13 is out with a shiny new Italian translation!
