Historically some English words (at the least some common ones) have been concatenated together (e.g. 'whatsoever' is actually 3 little words strung together). Recently 'Battle Tank' has been merged into 'Battletank' by a gaming company - you may say they took a liberty (so did Fergus' GC Piece Sets in some cases, with image names), but English doesn't have many 'Language police' at least in this part of the world (maybe different for those who keep up records on what is the Queen's English, if it's still called that now that Charles is King).

I merely pointed out by implication that Dabbabah was the better known/more established name for Warmachine (one source for the way that is used is again Fergus' GC Piece Sets). Call me (equally?) opinionated for thinking it's 'Cool'. I could ramble on a bit about people's Freedom (say to choose things in their lives) - people came to the Americas partly for that reason, at least it is said, for example.
