OLD EAST SLAVIC FIX
for VIKINGR 1.0

​

This completely optional, 100% compatible fix corrects the class names of the Rus faction by using proper early Old East Slavic forms. In addition, the font has been tweaked slightly to improve the appearance of the special characters needed for these Old East Slavic names. A couple of unrelated in-game strings have also been corrected.​

Violating good old Fintan was the only reason to get rid of it, I've heard.
