im not certain this is the right place for this but here goes:
I was thinking that if we have provinces and such and the governors are in charge of what thier provinces build then they should also be able to name all military units that are produced in thier province. Governors of course should ask the residents of thier province what to name each unit but as a basic rule the Governor would name every unit according to this format until it became an Elite.
<number> <province> <basic name of unit (i.e. swordsman)>
Once a unit became an elite the Governor should then post a poll on what special name to put on a unit using names out of a previously recommended pool of names from the citizens of the province (no more than 3 at a time i would think). The citizens then vote and the name of the unit is changed to this format.
<number> <province> <basic name of unit> <name of unit in quotes>
So an example would like this:
The province of Zarnia constructed a Rifleman unit. Upon it's creation the Governor of Zarnia has it named '6th Zarnia Rifles' but then 3 turns later it becomes an Elite unit due to combat. The Governor then asks the people to choose from 3 names he selected from the pool to name this unit. The people choose the name Wildcats so the name of the Rifleman unit is now 6th Zarnia Rifles "Wildcats"
Perhaps if the Governor foresees that a unit is going to become an Elite he can post a few polls in advance so that he has an ordered list for nameing the province units.
What does everyone think?
