    Default weird

    Hey everyone,
    After - finally - buying a real RTW game, I installed Roma Surrectum. Love the campaign map, factions, units , .... etc. Wanted to try something more challenging so I took Spain campaign in hard difficulty.Uh , overwelmed by Carthaginian armies... Recognized their characters .... Theodekles, Hasdrubal, Hannibal , all Barcas... Suddenly I see a very very strange name ....

    This is going to sound very stupid to everyone, because i played RTw for years now, but I never took a screenshot XD . So what's the command or control for it? ( printscreen doesn't work on thet pc) I'd love to show you guys the weird character name

    a google search will allow you to find FRAPS pretty quickly. Not too sure how it works and prt screen works fine for me. If your prt screens are black then turn off "anti-aliasing" found in options.

    It means that Legions can be trained there.

    Also that lol is actually in the names directory.

    I suppose that only counts for the Romans?

    It's not LOL but IOL, a Carthaginian city.

    An ancient seaport of Mauretania, located west of what is now Algiers in Algeria. Iol was originally founded as a Carthaginian trading station, but it was later renamed Caesarea and became the capital of Mauretania in 25 BC. The city was famous as a centre of Hellenistic culture, and under the Romans it became one of the most important ports on the African coast.
