For a work-around on naming armies:
+ When you have 3-star General and ArmyHQ in region where you want to form new army, before forming army, save game and exit ACW
+ Go to Factions file (ACW/GameData/Factions)
+ Backup the factions file
+ Open either 0Union or 1Confederate folder, whichever is appropriate
+ Find the GHQinfos line looking like (for CSA):
GHQInfos = CSA|Army of Northern Virginia|badge_CSA_ArmyNV.png|$Richmond, VA|CSA|Army of......
+ Add the following type of section to this GHQInfos line (copy existing section and modify, this is an example):
CSA|Army of Kentucky|badge_CSA_Army.png|$Warren, KY
+ In this example, Army of Kentucky is designated for Bowling Green, KY (found in region Warren, KY). Note that "badge_CSA_Army.png" is the generic CSA Army graphic
+ When folder is saved with changes, start ACW and open saved game file, go to desired region (this example, Warren, KY) and create the new Army. In this example army will be designated as Army of Kentucky.
+ Name your army whatever you want, but this method must take place prior to the desired army formation.
