Re: A Crone by any other name
I think I know what to do: Add an option to the general's char sheet: rename.
Than the general will have a new random name.
There, problem solved.
PS. The renaming by the 'hands of the players' would be better of course, but if we cannot have that, add this feature at least.

Re: A Crone by any other name
I really want to be (still) able to continue to rename commanders/heroes/mages ! 
I need to sort out who is doing what, and when you have 10 commanders of the same name, it's tedious !
I go so far that I name my mages "Search FBD" (Fire Blood Death) or "Research 6" to help me organise stuff...
The reason given is quite poor, you're penalizing 99% of "honest" players to prevent a lame trick used by 1%, that could easily be solved by always giving away the TYPE of unit to other players (so you'll see "JoeSmith the Scout - PRETENDER"  )
And even if the argument stands and the solution isn't that easy, it only stands in MP, at least allow renaming for all Solo games, please ...

True, I prefer singleplayer anyways. Multi is too slow in TB games...

Re: A Crone by any other name
In open defiance, I intend to use post-it notes on my monitor to "locally" rename my commanders in Dominions II. Take that Illwinter!
I'm fighting for the rights of my minions to reinvent themselves!
