Yes, just the one word typo. Though, if I'm being picky, I'm not sure
that the exclamation mark at the end of the sentence is necessary.
Hmm, and 'Even though' reads better to me than starting the sentence
with 'Though'.

However, I don't think those are important (and if they are changed
here then the descriptions of the other openarena packages should be
changed to match)

Thanks,
Daniel

P.S. If in doubt, I'm sure the folks on debian-l10n-english can say
what they think makes best sense.
