* Oppose: While the game doesn't use the 'monster' term much it is used. for example in the card of a boss with "Boss Monster". I don't feel this change is necessary or for the betterment of the wiki. Willing to hear what others think here.

* If we're going to settle on calling them something, I think 'monsters' would be the term to use rather than "foes", because "Boss Monster" is 'official terminology' |

* '''Probably oppose''' — So far while playing, I have not really noticed any consistent phrasing to describe enemies. These terms "Monsters", "enemies", etc, they have a long history in video games dating back to at least 1983, where the term "Monster" can be found on page 5 of the manual for the original ''Rogue''. Probably the term goes back to games like Dungeons & Dragons, adapting from its real-world use in WWII and before. All these terms are generally well understood not problematic. If ''Brighter Shores'' made a bigger point of stating "the proper terminology is ''Foes''", I could agree, but generally the Gowers have historically not been very careful with language, which is something I've noticed in their modern ''Brighter Shores'' as well.
