    While I'm not a fan of "Soldiery", OP lost his argument with "reddit".

    I'm a fan of awesome, and "soldiery" is less awesome than "polemology". Plus, when will they ever get another chance to use that word?!

    The heck does Polemology even MEAN!? The study of Poles? At least with "Tome of Soldiery" you know what information it's apparently supposed to hold.

    Might as well call them "Tomes of Pernickety" because that's what this thread is.. Pernickety and pointless. Of all the things to ask to be changed.. is the name of the new currency really going to affect your game play experience that much?! Really??

    Imagine if you created something, a game or whatever and everything you create you get people moaning about wanting it changed! If i was the developer of this game i'd be a sad panda having to see all these pointless threads!

    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:

    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.
