    Default Faction name and colour change mid-game.

    Ok, in my makedonia game I have lost all territories in greece with no hope of getting them back and i'm left only with mytile(that little island you start with near asia) and I want to start a new asian kingdom but I don't know how or if it is possible(I'm pretty sure I've seen it done before though) to change faction colour/name.

    I also have no ides what to call my kingdom based on the little island, I could really use some ideas 'cause I'm probably going to do an AAR on my exile.

    For color: EB/Data/descr_sm_factions Use paint to figure out what combo of red/blue/green you want.

    For name: EB/Data/Text/expanded_bi Do a find and replace for all instances of Makedonia to whatever you want to use instead. I would suggest you take Pergamon and RP the Pergamon Kingdom as that is actually a fairly good spot.

    You could try to RP the lesbian kingdom as your only region atm is Lesbos. This would also increase the number of readers for your future AAR significantly. lol


    The first round of the tournament has started. Who's going to prevail?

    Gladius or Sarissa, Scutum or Aspis?

    Yeah exept Lesbos never was a kingdom it was a "free" "ally" of athens during the peloponnesian wars and had a democratic government. then came the maks and reduced it to an occidental "satrapy". So i agree with Mjolnir in that you should do pergamon.


    Italians do it better! Chi dice donna dice guai. Abbi donna di te minore, se vuoi essere signore. Donne e buoi dei paesi tuoi. Fiume, grondaia e donna parlatora mandano l'uomo di casa fuora.
    And my personal favorite: "Non rimuovere il confine antico fissato dai tuoi padri". In english: "Do not remove the anchent border placed by your fathers". It looses something in the translation......

    They are Lesbians in name only. Though I guess if you dropped anouhg innuendo, I guess that might make for an interesting read.

    Default AW: Faction name and colour gange mid-game.

    Use http://www.colorschemer.com/online.html to see what the colour will look like.

    For the name, I'd suggest Basileion Lesbou. People could be the Lesboi. Note that there is no "i" in between the "b" and the "o". Yeah bow chika wow wow.

    This thread is derailing massively.

    Just to be on topic, it seems that exile AARs are popping up quite frequently. Not that there is anything wrong with the current ones, but I fear that a wave of them could really kill the concept. No offense the OP, just voicing concerns
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

    Cool store, bro! I want some ham.
    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?
    You can sift through the penny jar

    Sorry, I haven't gone near the AARs for a while and if there's too many of the type of AAR that i'm planning to do then it's probably best I don't do it, if you ever find my first AAR, The Idiot KH AAR, then you'll see why, that AAR was really bad, so bad it was almost funny.
    Thanks to all of you for the name info and colour changing.

    Also is there any colours you could suggest or any that were used by the island historically.

    What about a faction name for an alliance between Athens, Rhodes and Lesbos?
    Kinda like the koinon hellenon without the spartans but I would like some help trying to name it.
