My Black Spire's First Order district now has an evening school courtesy of a misunderstanding.

The localized quest text says:
"The locals don't understand what a lucky break our being here is for them. Give them an education, maybe then they will appreciate us more... and join us."
The german phrase used was "bilde sie aus", what means "train them to get a degree" and so I was surprised when the actual quest steps included only "recruit two sims into the first order" and "report back", with no task whatsoever relating to mentoring in a skill or training together.
Then it hit me that "bilde sie aus" might have been a mistranslation. Maybe the original quest text had read "educate them", as in "educate them about how good First Order rule is for them"? No classroom session at all required in this case, just a couple of deep conversations! The correct translation in this case would have been "kläre sie auf" (engl. "enlighten them") instead of "bilde sie aus" (engl. "give them an education") - they're two different things.
Or maybe I'm overthinking this, it wouldn't be the first time.
In any case I'm patiently waiting for Lt. Agnon or Kylo going ballistic on my poor sims for misinterpreting their instructions.
Good point. I've not played a First Order path so can't say what the English version is but have a feeling you're correct. Great screenshot! Would be a worthwhile addition to that side of the pack quests.
