Adjusting battlespeed / naming commanders

i asked this before but no one answered
how do you rename commanders in dom 1

In Dom1, to rename a commander:

In his info screen (right-click opens that), press r. Or maybe shift+r.

And, that was removed because of three armies led by PowerMonger the Frost Father/ Sea Father/ Ice Druid. Or somesuch. You could get your enemy wondering unless he knew all available pretenders. Or because a pretender was renamed!

Only way I can think that would remove the need of this would be if pretenders/prophets etc. were very clearly named in scouting reports, commander types were mentioned in there AND in Hall of Fame. And even then this might not be enough.

This has already been hashed and rehashed many time, this issue on battle speed, but as we got no answers if the problem will be solved, we can pretends that IW didnt know how detrimental it is to the game.

This is my most grievous problem as of now, before anuy game balance (and usually I prefer a game to be balanced/bug free before anything else!).
I concur with Alex, I report already 3 missing in actions (decision to not buy) players mainly because of this lack of feature. I wont write here how harsh they were with their comments, but it was rather clear for them that it was a major pain in the a...

There was an answer some time ago, IIRC, and it was that they encountered some bugs while they were trying to implement it.

Would you care to spell out what you are implying here?

YOou mightn want to read the reply they gave to you when you asked them about this back at the end of October.

I think Pocus has a point here. We know the fast forward was taken off because it was buggy, but I don't remember any of the IW crew saying whenever they would adress the problem in a patch or if they felt that the current battle speed is good as it is.
