CURRENT RENAME TRIGGERS/MECHANICS:
Here are listed all the ways the current script are enabling factions to change names as time passes. Feel free to both suggest new ones, and how the current ones are used, in the mod comments section! :)

1. Legendary lord ranks:
This enables faction names to change as your legendary lord ranks up. Excellent for example horde factions or factions focused more on a character than the actual faction.

  • Example:
    Playing as Archaon. Your faction name will become Swords of Chaos (Archaons personal horde) But as you rank up, your faction name will more and more show how he truly is the herald of the Apocalypse.

    Rank 10 - The Slayers of Kings
    Rank 20 - Scourge of the World
    Rank 30 - Heralds of the Endtimes
    Rank 40 - Chaos Undivided

2. Pre-set province lists:
This is the vanilla CA script mechanic. Making it possible for faction name changes to happen once taken over a pre-set list of provinces.

  • Example:
    Playing as Emperor Karl Franz, your faction starts off as the City State of Altdorf. Then changing to Grand Principality of Reikland when finally taken back all of Reikland from the rebels. And into Empire of Man once control the entire empire!

    Lastly becoming The Greater Sigmarite Imperium once taken over all of the realms of human factions.

3. Number of regions under your control:
This script addition enables faction names to change simply based on how many regions they control! Not being tied down to a pre-set loreful list of provinces. Excellent for example greenskin factions. Who now are free to rampage in whatever direction they desire!

  • Example:
    Playing as Grimgor, your tribe status raises up to being Da Great WAAAGH! once taken over 15 regions. Then Da Prophesied WAAAGH! once controlling 30 regions. And lastly Da Green Tide! once control 60 regions. Wherever on the map!

4. Last faction standing:
You're the last faction left on the map in your race culture? Then your name can change!

  • Example:
    Playing as a high elves faction, your faction name will change to the Phoenix Kingdom if you're the only high elf faction left standing.

5. Future script plans:
We are always looking for new interesting ways to make the faction name changes happen as you play! Also always open for ideas from all of you! :) So got an idea for a way that would be interesting, cool or practical in how faction names changes? Then feel free to share it with us in the comment section!

Looking forward to be hearing from you
