Slavic names & lore corrected. (wif some other shiz too)
– This mod changes the names of the slavic men and women in the grand campaign to variations closer to proto-slavic versions of the names or the all-slavic versions of the names, to represent the early time in the history of the nations and the fact, that they haven’t divided so much yet. It also changes some names in The Age of Charlemagne, so they more closely correspond with the medieval variants of the South Slavic and West Slavic names.
– Next it changes the names of the legendary buildings and their flavour texts in the grand campaign. No more totems of the wolf. Rather a pillar of the gods. No more lunar shrine of Svarog. Rather lunar shrine of Khors. It also changes flavour text of some of the city and town religion buildings. Mostly Perun’s, as in this early times he wasn’t the head of Slavic pantheon but rather a god of war. Also some unit’s flavour text has been changed (e.g. Perun’s warriors, Svarog’s riders)
– It changes the name of the pagan Priestess into the Seeress, as she is originally called in the game files. As there surely were priesteses, but they usually, stayed at the shrine, as the priests did.
– It also changes the description of the New Kingdoms factions trait from "Nations are merely lines on the map,…" into "Territories are merely lines on the map,…". As the previous sentence did not make much sence to me, since members of a certain nation can live beyound the borders of their kingdom.

Write a comment.
I understand that not everyone will like all the new names or all the other changes. But I am sorry, nothing can be done about that, since the mod is more or less done.
If you are interested in the encyclopedia pages I’ve written you can see them in the pictures here. If I figure out how to put them in game, I’ll do so imediatelly.
I worked primarely with Z. Váňa’s book on Slavic paganism.
Enjoy!
