    Default the Harsh, the Mad, the Mighty, Victor

    Great generals have been given names depending on their skill in War. My general became Herius Victor from Herius the Mighty. What I want to know is, what's the highest name a general can get?

    There are all sorts of epithets. Have a look in the home/data/export_descr_character_traits.txt file for a list. "the Mighty" is the top of the Commanders list (+5 stars). There are many others, like "the Cunning" for reaching the top level of ambushing (Exceptional Ambusher - +3), or "the Attacker" for attacking (Heroic Attacker - +5). I suppose another useful one would be Legendary Warlord, which gives you the title of "the Great", with +4 to command and +4 to law.

    My best general who won many battles (6 of them were marked on map!) was named " The Infantryman" at the end of his military career. Closer to his 60's I "pensioned" him and made him the governor of one of my cities. After few years in town he became "The Orator".

    You must have won a number of crushing victories with 80%+ infantry.

    Yes, and he (me? ) has "Infantry Commander of Genius" trait.

    I've got "Bolon the Mad". I cant kill him with an assassin and attacking a Scipii army of 600 by himself just killed off his bodyguard with him escaping.

    I've had second thoughts about trying to kill him off though and may use him to recruit mercs and kill off small bands of bandits (which may improve his terrible ratings).

    I've had a bunch of 'conquerers' and a 4 star admiral but I cant think of his epithet.
