The Character Names Project's goal is to overhaul all of MTW2's character names lists so that they are as historically correct as possible. A secondary goal is to increase the number of names in each list, therefore creating a more diverse character (specifically family) tree in a MTW2 campaign. This is being done to address the problem of vanilla MTW2 having names lists which contained errors of all varieties, and the problem that they contained too few names. For more information, please visit our forum[http://www.twcenter.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=327].

  • More diversity amongst names (the modified lists are larger than the vanilla lists)
  • All families will start the game with surnames/bynames
  • Popes will have proper regnal names
  • 18 factions with entirely new character names lists
