Naming the Elite Unit that spawns a ML

[wallyskier]

Wiki is a great source-- I've had most of my elite units named after regiments of the British Army, or the Canadian Army (can't beat either for colorful names) or units in the US Army. I know there's no comparison, but I see an "army" as more or less a division, so they'll have corresponding names like "1st Armored Division" or "2nd 'Indianhead' Division" and so on.

"Death Lord 666"
"Spawn of Diablo"
"The Ultimate Assassin King"
etc.

basically I go for hardcoreness - it impresses the AI you see.

I try to include a number with the name, "SwordVictor03", so that I can track how many leaders I've gotten. And then, in the heat of battle, when I get another .... "Oh, crap. Was that 4 or was that 5?" and I lose track.

Reminds me of the classic line from the Dirty Harry movie, "Did I fire 5 shots, or 6? To tell you the truth, in all the excitement, I've kinda forgotten myself. But this is a 45 Magnum, the most powerful handgun ever made, so you gotta ask yourself, do I feel lucky?"
