Oh, I'm sorry, did I break your concentration?
Re: Lolman?
I also found it quite funny when I saw a troll called Borg… resistance is futile…
Re: Lolman?
i once had a spearman named Sodd. He was the first to be killed, the poor sod.

I might be noobishly stealing someone elses thunder here, but...
Re: Lolman?
On my local copies, I often change the unit name listings and add other self-made names, names from popular culture, people that I know, people on the forums, or even myself. I once killed Gambit (a footpad) with a certain heavy infantryman named Terminator. Unfortunately I kinda uninstalled 1.6.3 and lost the save... >.>

Wose names are often very amusing.

Wow, I didn't realise you could do that, how exactly do you do it. I would like to give it a go.Zerovirus wrote:On my local copies, I often change the unit name listings and add other self-made names, names from popular culture, people that I know, people on the forums, or even myself.

I can't decide if I should be flattered or boarding up my windows.

You know you were very unlucky. I needed both hits to kill you and you were standing on 60% defense terrain. So lucky

I didn't realize you could do this, but a quick look through the files found the place where each race's names are listed. I tried replacing the elvish names with my own stuff, but then I tested it in-game and it was trying to combine the syllables from one name with others. (which was actually somewhat amusing. I got an Elf Fighter named Turumyrran. Turuk + Blarumyrran. The only one that worked right was an elvish shaman named Noy... ) How do I make it just use the exact names I list?Zerovirus wrote:On my local copies, I often change the unit name listings and add other self-made names, names from popular culture, people that I know, people on the forums, or even myself.

Well, you could just rename them ingame, but that's not as funny. Manually creating humor is never as interesting as coincidences by secondhand changes.
About names, who remembers 'Noobs vs. Devs'? I think I'm going to put people from the forums in... With permission

Haha, did I imagine it or can't you rename them ingame?Captain_Wrathbow wrote:I had one named Tumtum in my very first Wesnoth MP battle...Issyl wrote:Wose names are often very amusing.

And now I want to go and hide Borg, Terminator, R2D2, C3P0, and a bunch more random names in Steelhive's unit name file. Any other robot name ideas? (I -could- put Quote, but that's pushing the robot limits a bit.) Oh yeah. And Bender. Dalek too. Robocop!
I am wayyy too bored right now

Actually I have no idea what 'Noobs vs. Devs' is, but it sounds interesting and I don't care if you use my name.
