Division Names

Hello, sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, I didn't find it...


As the Union by 1864 (usually in a game where the south is pretty well done but I'm still having fun) I have so many units and so many divisions that when I create a new division there is no name at the bottom. You know what I mean, under the portrait of the general there is usually a division name, but I am guessing that the names run out after a certain point.

Is there any way to add some additional division names so this does not happen?

1-USA or 2-CSA

LargeCombiName =

I have not tried it but adding to that list should solve your problem

Good to know :p ompom:

Wish you could wild card it for the generals name like the LeaderFleetName above it .. but tried that and failed :(

I'm not sure where the setting is, but the Confederates, which also have the ordinal division names in their faction file, can also be forced to use those; I've seen it during beta testing.

So I assume that the Federals can also be allowed to use divisions named after their commanders.

I shall have a play with that then

May be as simple as replacing LargeCombiName with something like LeaderArmyName and using that wildcard

I for one and I think a number of people would like to name the Divisions after the general
