    Default How do I modify faction colours/names?

    I already asked in my AAR thread but I'm really impatient and I want to finish this chapter.

    I noticed in MarcusAureliusAntoninus' AAR he edits the colours of factions on the strategy map to represent that they are a new, emergent faction. He also changes the name of the faction itself.

    I was wondering what files I need to edit if I want to make a certain faction a different colour and change its name. It is possible right?

    well, to change a color you need to open faction_descr_sm or sth like that in EB data folder
