Bug Description
Rephrase the "Food For Your Miners" objective in the Empire 2 scenario.
Rules are roughly:
1. Always begin with a clear objective expressed in imperative.
2. Adress the player always with you, avoid we and our and so on.
3. Additional info and explanation can be given after the imperative or in an li_arrow item.
Are these rules documented on the wiki? We could have a general string desing page there.

No I don't think they are documented. Venatrix and I were discussing my original wording in empire 4 and during the discussion she had very good reasons to implement these rules. They were that clear and good that I decided to rephrase the empire 3 objectives in this sense as well. I didn't have a look at the other tribes scenarios. But I really found it logical to implement them for all empire missions.
The best reason for doing so in my opinion was that objectives are a demand from the game to the player and adressing the player by an imperative in singular does make a lot of sense in my opinion.
So if you don't mind I'll grab trunk and rephrase the objective after having finished testing the frisians. I don't know how to add the "rules" to the wiki. But if you want them to be included in the wiki we should recheck all the scenarios to do so.
Perhaps you could contact Venatrix what is her opinion about that.
