Legion/Army names

[gamerdude130]

What would you call your armies?
I'm probably gonna name my armies Baal's chosen, Sons of Melqart and so forth.

[Cresilia]

1st Legion, 2nd Legion etc.

Seriously this is one feature that must be in the game for me! Its such a small thing but it matters a lot for me.

[✠Ikaroqx✠]

Alpine Legion, Gallic Legion 1, Gallic Legion 2, Raiders, Greek Legion 1, Greek Legion 2, Patrol North, Patrol South, etc - I know they're awesome names

[King Philip II]

1st Consular Army and 2nd Consular Army. Named and/or numbered Legions. Armies tied to the traits of the general i.e. must be Consular (with a few exceptions) to command a Consular army. That's for the early to middle Republican period. A relevant historically plausible system for late Republic and later periods.

Simlar system for all other factions.

[Lieutenant Sharpe]

I don't usually nname my armies but for Rome 2 I will, just for awesomeness!

[Argon Viper]

Try to find an interesting alliterative name that includes the name of the commander. Although I'll have to use a different idea if they don't let us change the name.

[Remwr]

I wonder if they'll also add army names for other factions. I don't honestly know if it would be plausible, since well most other nations didn't number their armies.

[wumpus]

It depends on the faction. If Roman, I suppose, I'd opt for "10th Legion Apollinaris"; if Greek, "Bolts of Zeus"; if Amazon (in Parthian Shot's mod) "Sisters of Battle"; something like those. Hawooh.

[Virtanen]

In empire I liked naming units after something from their service history.

Like for example if I have a unit of swiss guard that performed particularly well against winged hussars, I'd name it something like "Polesbane".

One time I had a battery of spanish 12-pounder cannons called "Terror of Morocco"

also naming ships was a particular sub-hobby of mine :V
