    Default Characters

    In the names file of R:TW there is a list of character names and surnames available for each faction, I think these effect what your named character's image or self-portrait but I was wondering what would be the effect if I added a new name, any random name to this list and altered the desrc_strat file accordingly in order to change or alter this portrait?

    If you see a portrait of a general at the start of the game that you want to go to a different general, you can swap them around in descr_strat to get the results you want. I don't think it's completely random.

    it is random for generals that come of age during gameplay. generals you start with are always the same though.
