But can the game program make names with Roman numeral nicknames appear in logical order? It would be kind of weird to have a Ptolemy VII appear as the grandfather of a Ptolemy II.
I think such is not possibly with RTW, because the game randomly choses the names from a list of possibilities. So, this can't be an option. But it might be an option for the starting characters. So we could have like Arsaces and Arsaces I maybe?
