'''Main Empire Theme''' and '''Commander Theme''' are name-sets that adds flavor to your race. Main Empire Theme determine your starting ranks, random system names and auto-generated names for ship classes, while the names of [[leaders|Commander]] come from the Commander Theme. The themes are chosen at [[new game|startup]], and you can change them mid-game to an extent in the race menu {{key|Ctrl+F2}}. All names can be overridden during the games if you prefer something else. ==Main Empire Theme== Main Empire Theme adds flavour to your race. Your starting ranks, random system names and auto-generated names for ship classes will be based on the theme. So for example if you chose United States for the theme, the ranks would be US Naval and Army ranks, the system names would be US cities and the class names would be Essex, Lexington, Spruance, Ticonderoga, etc.. There are currently over sixty different themes including such varieties as Canadian, Deutschland, Demonic Realm, Ancient Egypt, Knights Templar, Welsh, Barsoom, Swedish, ASEAN, etc. ==Commander Theme== Commander Theme affects the naming of your Commanders. For the US theme Steve imported the latest US Census data into the Aurora database. When you generate a Commander it will pick a random first name from 2000 possibles and a random surname from over 50,000. That provides about one hundred million names for the US theme alone. Different name themes will vary in how the names are generated are displayed. For example, the Roman name theme uses praenomen (given name), nomen and cognomen. The German theme will put the occasional 'von' in for flavour, etc. There are currently thirty-four name themes, including Russian, Japanese, Ancient Greek, Polish, Jewish, Arabic, Hobbit, Zulu, Norse, Indian, etc. Any name theme you need should in there somewhere. If you want to see more themes, I am always open to players creating themes and sending them to me for the next version. Let me know if you want more details. =Examples= There are currently over sixty different Main Empire Themes and thirty-four Commander name themes. Following is a sample of the names each theme uses. If you are playing a game with a theme not listed, please contribute. == ASEAN == === Naval Officers === #Fleet Admiral #Admiral #Vice Admiral #Rear Admiral #Commodore #Captain #Commander #Lieutenant Commander ===Ground Forces Officers=== #Lieutenant General #Major General #Brigadier General #Colonel ===Ship Names=== *Jerong *Ratanakosin *Steadfast *Conrado Yap *Kasturi *Tapi *Swordsman *Jacinto *Ahmad Yani *Kedah ===System Names=== *Hat Yai *Rangoon == Deutschland == === Naval Officers === #Admiral #Vizeadmiral #Kontreadmiral #Kommodore #Kapitan zur See #Fregattankapitan ===Ground Forces Officers=== #Generalleutenant #Generalmajor #Brigadegeneral #Oberst ===Ship Names=== *Bayern *Deutschland *Gneisenau *Hamburg *Konig *Rheinland *Scharnhorst *Seydlitz *Tirpitz *Nassau *Von Roeder ===System Names=== *Berlin *Hannover *Hamburg == Andromeda == === Naval Officers === #High Guard Admiral #Vice Admiral #Admiral #Captain #Commander #Lieutenant Commander #Lieutenant #Lieutenant Junior Grade ===Ground Forces Officers=== #Lieutenant General #Major General #Brigadier General #Colonel ===Ship Names=== *Glorious Heritage *Righteous Fist *Stellar Wrath *Eternal Diligence *Pride of Kaldera *Siege Perilous *Victorys Crucible *To Seek To Find *Fingers of Dawn *Seven Pillars ===System Names=== *Tarn Vedra *Sissnik == Odd == === Naval Officers === #Magician #Sorcerer #Cleric #Merenary (sic) #Soldier #Pirate #Outlaw ===Ground Forces Officers=== #Sorcerer #Cleric #Merenary (also sic) #(Missing) ===Ship Names=== *Anklenumb *Bumblepuff *Ballmuck *Cloddumb *Thimblegrumbleclown *Knucklepuff *Bonefumble *Loafdolt *Munchnit *Doofsnark ===System Names=== *Techa *Chraough == Rigelian (Historical) == === Naval Officers === #High Swordsman #Swordsman of Many Stars #Swordsman of Stars #Swordsman of Worlds #Greater Swordsman #Great Axebearer #Axebearer ===Ground Forces Officers=== #Swordsman of Stars #Swordsman of Worlds #Greater Swordsman #Great Axebearer ===Ship Names=== *Bombina *Tambacounda *Boko Tamboko *Khalkfontein *Chukudu Gozimi *Timbedra *Hanj Monakah *Yoshinu Camamba *Ozhmord *Homtet ===System Names=== *Kalizwali *Rigel == Rigelian (Steve) == === Naval Officers === #High Swordsman #Swordsman of Many Stars #Swordsman of Stars #Swordsman of Worlds #Swordsman #Samurai #Ronin ===Ground Forces Officers=== #Swordsman of Stars #Swordsman of Worlds #Swordsman #Samurai ===Ship Names=== *Intrepid *Tribal *Discovery *Invincible *Iwo Jima *Mulberry *Liberty *Resolution *River *Sentry ===System Names=== *Rigel *Harvest == Terran Federation == === Naval Officers === #Sky Marshal #Fleet Admiral #Admiral #Vice Admiral #Rear Admiral #Commodore #Captain #Commander ===Ground Forces Officers=== #Lieutenant General #Major General #Brigadier General #Colonel ===Ship Names=== *Discovery *Napoleon *Outreach *Nelson *Brazwell *Rodney *Queensland *Cornwallis *Argentina *Oregon *Rommel *Spruance *Prince of Wales *Revenge *Scipio *Churchill *King Louis *Semmes *Collingwood *Forrest *Ironsides *Yugoslavia *New York *Tigris *Guderian *Chihuahua *Greece *Goto *Thunderer *Comet *Viking *Pegasus *Independence *Cromwell *McKinley *Cobra *Wolfhound *Scimtar (sic) *Kongo *Majestic *Iowa *Apache *Achilles *Fletcher *Shark *Guardian *Essex *Valiant *Wellington ===System Names=== *Proxima Centauri *Tau Ceti == Tolkien == === Naval Officers === #General #Colonel #Major #Captain #Sergeant #Warrior #Squire ===Ground Forces Officers=== #Colonel #Major #Captain #Sergeant ===Ship Names=== *Naraithsol *Dulalas *Glamatus *Duldrus *Augcating *Gomalus *Analis *Alalsil *Alatol *Glamduras ===System Names=== *Isorfindir *Galorfing ==Nations of Earth== ===Naval Officers=== # President # Vice President # Prime Minister # Chanscellor # Vice Chancellor # Minister # Dictator ===Ground Forces Officers=== # Lietenant General # Major General # Brigadier General # Colonel ===Ship Names=== ===System Names=== [[Category:content]]
