First open beta of AOVAF

**Rodion Romanovich** · 08-26-2005, 09:55

Situation when it comes to name lists:

- These need more names:
French
Normandie
Lotharangia

- These have no name list at all at the moment:
Saxons
HRE
Magyar

@Forgus, could you help with a magyar name list?

@Meneldil: I'll have a look at saxons and HRE in the meantime. For Normandy, should be lengthen the list by using French names, or a combination of French, Norwegian and Danish names, but with French in majority? For Lotharingia I think Frankish, Italian and latin sounding names would work. But there are probably enough sources on Lotharingia for me to find enough useful names only in those, so I won't need to use names from other factions, I think.

Shure. How many do you need? Can the trait depend on a trait? Pagan vs. Christian again...

**Rodion Romanovich** · 08-26-2005, 11:05

The basic names, such as first names and surnames, are not depending on traits. This means that if we include Christianized names, we can't prevent them from existing early in the period, before conversion. Only cognomina, trait names, can be affected by complex triggers. I hope that answered your question well enough

Some names for you. Full names should be like (for males) X fia Y, like Aba fia Adony: Adony son Aba. I hope it will do.

Ok, very nice! Thanks for the help

**Forgus** · 08-26-2005, 12:44

Note, that most of these names are based on XI century listings... So pretty accurate. Apart from the higher nobility non-christian names were used widely even to the 1400's!

**ScionTheWorm** · 08-27-2005, 14:23

you know how many units such a beta would include right now? about 15 maybe... I think it's a mistake. If I'm not completely off the fields skel and quick haven't made a lot of new units, right?

have I missed something?

edit:
a beta would be completely wrong I think, it would barely be a preview... even with several historical battles, we have three half done factions..

edit 2:
okay closed beta is what this is about... I doubt a month is enough, but it hasn't have to be that much to produce something playable...
