The new options in the R17 Preview 3 version of the Flintlock mod add a lot of flavour to CCM. In my current testgame with CCM 3 the change in names worked very well in the diplomacy screen. Here you can see a screenshot of all civs (but Arabia, which is in era 2) in era 1 in 750 AD with their civ and leader names (per example Emperor Julius Caesar of Rome) and in the next screenshot most of these civs in era 2, showing Duke Lorenzo de Medici from the Italian city-states. The time of abstract leader names like Ruler (Fra.), Ruler (Rus.) or Ruler (Ger.) in CCM is over.
It is a pitty that some colours of the civ texts on the marple diplomacy screen are looking somewhat pale (per example the text for the USA in era 2). I will have a try if they look better on the "sandstorm background" of standard Civ 3.
