Some dude at TWC found out you can actually edit the name of a settlement in the middle of the game... discovered by total accident apparently, did anyone already know about this?

(BI only, apparently.)
Too bad it doesn't work in RTW
Hehe... Goodbye to some old names... Perhaps I will even begin to rename some cities in the honour of my greatest leaders and generals.
Sheepopolis sounds good...
Kraxonia = Constantinople...Quote:

I wonder, if you rename an settlement and the AI takes it from you, will they rename it to its old name?
This is great, nice find by that guy. I've been renaming all my conquered cities to the names of fallen family members. My capitol is now Boz(Thessalonica).
I foresee the coming of Bartertown.
I read somewhere it was also possibleto rename legions, anyone know about this?
and if it is... how to do it ~:)Quote:

It's fun playing with city names :tongueg:
I discovered this in my first campaign. I kept renaming my saxon settlements to later viking colonies. Ebarucum became Jorvik, for example.

The entire world now knows of the many famous battles fought around the aptly named Hordus Magnetum.
Formerly known as Campus Iazyges???Quote:

or why not Paris? ~D
It was a somewhat late change to the game that didnt get in to the manual.
Sorry.

Renaming units and cities would be very cool. And generals etc.: )
Is the link only for BI and if so is there a topic for doing it on RTW 1.2/1.3?
Thanks :duel: ~:cheers:
I rename my by alphabetical order, with a b c from there on. So much easier for me to know ~:cheers: ~:cheers: ~:cheers: ~:cheers: ~:cheers:
Hey I dont have BI but whoever does try changing a unit name the same way you tried changing the city name.~:)
I guess this would be the~;)Quote:
and a few surprises we haven’t told you about just yet!
Well I conquered Athens with my goths and renamed it after me.
It looks so much better now :bow:
So you now hold sway over the magnificent Goth city of TB666???Quote:

Maybe I should try it, I just captured Constantinople so it would be a good chance to try it.
