Description:

This is a port of the original ‘New Settlment Who Dis’ from Warhammer 2. Check it out
here and give Groove Wizard and John Austin a thumbs up and some support!

Description

Ever wonder why the Dwarfs would reconquista Black Crag and just leave it with that infidelious name? Or why the Greenskins would occupy old Dwarfen holds and, out of respect for their blue brethren, continue to call them "Karaks"? Well, wonder no more!

This mod renames settlements based on the faction and race occupying it, so when a settlement is conquered by another faction, the internal script checks if there’s a unique name for that settlement/race or settlement/faction combo, and applies the new name if one is found. This enables, for instance, Karak Ungor to be renamed as Red Eye Mountain if it’s occupied by the Greenskins.

Whats new?

Aside from updating the mod to work with Warhammer 3, I’ve added a handful of new settlement names.
Some of these have been added by myself but others have been inspired by changes from other mods, such as:

Conveniently this means these mods are also compatible!

I’ve also added the idea of a ‘fallback’ race. Several races in the game will use names from other cultures in the event they don’t have a unique name defined. This provides support for races added by mods as well. Here is the current list.

Original Race
Alternate Race
Savage Orcs
Greenskins
Vampire Coast
Vampire Counts
Vampire Counts
Vampire Counts
Chaos Dwarfs*
Dwarfs
Khorne**
Warriors of Chaos
Nurgle**
Warriors of Chaos
Slaanesh**
Warriors of Chaos
Tzeentch**
Warriors of Chaos
Daemons of Chaos/Daniel**
Warriors of Chaos
Warriors of Chaos
Southern Realms* (Including Cataph’s Soutern Realms)
Empire
Bretonnia*
Empire
Cathay*
Empire
Kislev*
Empire
Empire
Empire

* I am aware that these aren’t a perfect fit but in general these names would fit better than the normal names in most cases. Care has been taken to exclude some of the more specific alternate names (eg Neuland is only for the Empire). See below for instructions for recommendations/requests if you have some better ideas.
** The mod does not currently contain any renames for Warriors of Chaos.

This should work with Immortal Empires Expanded, provided the regions have the same keys.
The Old World is currently not supported (regions have different keys) but open to suggestions for region names (see below for requests).

Known issues?

I’ve been playing with this for a while but there are still some things to call out.

  • MCT options have not been thoroughly tested.
  • Not all regions and faction/race combinations have been tested.
  • Changing MCT options mid campaign will refresh settlement names but the updates won’t reflect until the UI is reloaded. Moving the camera away from the settlement and back should refresh things properly.

Let me know in the comments if there are any issues and I’ll see what I can do to resolve these.

There is limited support provided for Realm of Chaos but I don’t think I’ve setup MCT options for all the regions.

Submodding & Requests

Before making a request make sure you check the sheet[docs.google.com] to make sure the region doesn’t already have a name.

Otherwise, check out the instructions on the original mod page. All requirements still apply, so if you’re making a recommendation I need to know which region, what the name is, for which faction/race the name applies to, why the name is suitable and what category (loreful, iffy, translation or goofy) the name applies to.

If I’m not responding or don’t accept your idea, thats fine because the mod is still sub-moddable and very easily expandable. The instructions from the original mod is still valid as well.

Credits

Massive thanks to Vandy/Groove Wizard for giving permission to port and upload this mod to Warhammer 3.
This mod would not have existed without John Austin, who had the original idea and co-created the original settlement names.
