Ok, I knw that you guys are really targeting cities here but I'm going to stake my case here.... again.

Since Aggie drew up a unit roster for us, I have noticed a couple of disturbing facts:
Sir Bambi
Sir Big

What the hell is this? For the entire game, yes I mean from the inception of the ISDG, all I have asked for is a knight to be named "Sir Donegeal, First Knight of Apolyton". Now I fully agree that these names could (in Lucky's world) be in the realm of legitimate possibilities, but I do not believe so.

There are also three horsemen that do not have any reflection on team members (ok, Trips guard or whatever, but he already has a city). What is going on when almost half my current posts here have to do with this single individual matter and it still gets ignored?

FOR GODS SAKE, PLEASE RENAME EITHER A CURRENT KNIGHT OR A HORSEMAN THAT IS GOING TO BE UPGRADED TO A KNIGHT TO "Sir Donegeal, First Knight of Apolyton"!! (or something similar if it doesn't fit )

are self expanitory. A referance name implies that, until a permenent name is attached, it will be refered to that name, in forum postings and in chat (and my spreadsheets).

Lots of new cities over the next several turns Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

We have an bunch of cities being built over the next several turns and we will need names for them. I don't know if we have some assigned or not (if so, someone please edit this post to put the names into here).

See General Overall City Placement Plan #1 for locations

Turn 164 (480AD) - Site #25 (working name 'Fish') - Site #16
Turn 165 (490AD) - Site #22
Turn 166 (500AD) - Site #12 - Site #18
Turn 167 (510AD) - Site #3 - Site #5
Turn 168 (520AD) - Site #4 - Site #6
Turn 169 (530AD) - Site #20
Turn 170 (540AD) - Site #7 (Phase 4 city)
Turn 171 (550AD) - Palace move - None.
Turn 172 (560AD) - Site #8 (Phase 4 city)

We also have 5 more sites other than these to complete the full Super-Rex, but they will come a bit slower than all of these.

We won't be building any new units for a while, actually.

Personally, I'd like to rename some of units that received silly names during the war. I've managed to figure out that they all apparently stem from a single post by BFM earlier in this thread. While some of them are indeed amusing, I'd rather name units after members of the team. Jagjef jr. can be one of the new names.

Oh, I've come up with a master list of literally hundreds upon hundreds of ship names for the Apolytonian Imperial Navy.

That said, for the potential naval construction project that would be needed for what I'd prefer to call Operation Leviathan (basically winning the game if we can cut GWT off at the knees), here are the ship names that I believe would be best from among the many:

First Batch of Frigates (or other warships)... note that we probably won't need this many by the time of invasion launch, but more warships will certainly built soon after.

AIS Triumph
AIS Leviathan
AIS Colossus
AIS Ardent
AIS Audacious
AIS Glorious
AIS Ferocious
AIS Relentless
AIS Constitution
AIS Republic
AIS Justice
AIS Commonwealth
AIS Unity
AIS Intrepid
AIS Tenacious
AIS Dauntless
AIS Supremacy
AIS Hegemon
AIS Senator
AIS Consul
AIS Ascendancy
AIS Dominion
AIS Imperium
AIS Authority
AIS Sovereign
AIS Resolve
AIS Courageous
AIS Illuminous
AIS Luminary
AIS Brilliant
AIS Banana
AIS Lux Musae

First 40 Galleons

AIS Renown
AIS Majestic
AIS Vigorous
AIS Ambitious
AIS Conqueror
AIS Hero
AIS Canon
AIS Occupier
AIS Colonizer
AIS Annexation
AIS Empire
AIS Solidarity
AIS Determination
AIS Valor
AIS Virtuous
AIS Zealous
AIS Duty
AIS Service
AIS Faithful
AIS Salvation
AIS Savior
AIS Deliverance
AIS Liberator
AIS Redeemer
AIS Consummation
AIS Emancipator
AIS Vindicator
AIS Righteous
AIS Immaculate
AIS Paragon
AIS Angelic
AIS Retribution
AIS Lustrous
AIS Radiant
AIS Aurora
AIS Apotheosis
AIS Splendid
AIS Lucidity
AIS Corona

There are a few names that could afford to be replaced, of course. Perhaps a few names could be done after previous leaders or various cities (though that should be kept to a minimum... afterall, units are named after posters and cities are already rather prominantly displayed as names.... ships offer an opportunity to provide names directed more at ideals and attributes... which is not so workable for other things we have to name).
