    So, forum-goers, is this a good idea? If 'Paradox Games' isn't good, what do you suggest?

    I think the whole site should be renamed "Ze Bastard's Totalwar Centre". I think it has a better ring to it than the current name. Sadly I know this will never happen.

    On a serious note, I agree with this sentiment. Particularly as most people who play Paradox games tend to get hooked like a heroin addict play other Paradox games. With Rome coming out in the second quarter this year then it does make sense.

    I agree with the name change since I play CK and Rome is coming out. Maybe this change would generate more traffic here. Though, I don't think this is how this web site decides such things. You will probably need to talk to one of the politicians around here to get a legitimate vote going.

    Changing the name to Paradox games and adding sub forums for EU, CK, Rome ect would be really nice.

    Better yet:
    Make a whole new sub forum (not under circus maximums) for paradox games. Have the 3 forums as: Mount and Blade(the company that makes it is owned by paradox), EU/Victoria, CK/EU Rome, HOI2. Or something like that... regardless... the forum could do with being split up.

    Agreed. Shouldn't even be discussed any further, since there are threads about every Paradox game in the EU subforum already.

    17-1 is good enough for me. The only question is, what do I call the subforums? It looks fairly silly, as it stands. Probably I should just merge them into the main forum? They're fairly dead.

    Yes but a sub forum for mods encourages people to post mods... otherwise people are unlikely to post it in the main section.
