Please rename "Tomes of Soldiery"

Mr. Happy via Reinhearts stream declared that they are now to be known as Yoshida Tomes!

I don't get what's wrong with Soldiery?

It's a close enough translation of the original and it doesn't have people reaching for a dictionary.

Also I can't not read it in Michael Palin's voice:

For those who wonder why I'm so scrupulous about naming conventions and other minutiae, please understand that I'm being fanboyish. I want to play this game for over a decade.

I honestly hope that feedback from players, even this silliness, will help that happen.

This is precisely the argument that i was going to present. Well, that, and that there will very likely be more tomestones to come, so those wanting a wholly different name altogether should wait their turn for their favored tome type to come up.

It is a pretty silly name, but I like it for that reason. People are just gonna call em "soldier tomes" or "sol tomes" or something anyway.

Selling Tomes of Sold items /send tell.

Please rename to

Allagan Tomes of Yoshida

And if it were polemology they would be "pole tomes"! XD

Well.
"Soldiery" as defined by the online version of the merriam-webster dictonary, which I think is a reputable source, is "The profession or techinique of soldiering" which means "the military profession" so it fits perfectly. It's just not as weird as some people wanted it to be.

This the team that was aware that "Lustrate" is a literal military term in latin (which means 'to review'), have some faith in them.

It would be nice if they would start naming things with words that rolled off the tongue easily. Honestly though. This is kind of Square's MO.
