    The entire world now knows of the many famous battles fought around the aptly named Hordus Magnetum.

    This is irresistible, Rome will now be known under one of the names:
    - Barbaria
    - Hunnopolis
    - Vandalia
    or why not Paris?

    It was a somewhat late change to the game that didnt get in to the manual.
    Sorry.

    Erm.. anything else?
    - I'm sorry, but giving everyone an equal part when they're not clearly equal is what again, class?

    - Communism!

    - That's right. And I didn't tap all those Morse code messages to the Allies 'til my shoes filled with blood to just roll out the welcome mat for the Reds.

    What about re-naming unit names?
    I hate my signature!

    Renaming units and cities would be very cool. And generals etc.: )

    Is the link only for BI and if so is there a topic for doing it on RTW 1.2/1.3?

    Thanks

    Certainly no need to apologize! Half the fun of playing a game comes from finding neat little undocumented features, such as this or the famous battle sites, that don't actually affect gameplay but add a personalized feel to a game.

    Good point. It would make it possible for a mod like EB to have accurate names for settlements if they're conquered by a different faction.
