I don't remember if i said this early in here, i'm happy to help with the names for Mojave, Maxson, Texans and it sister chapter.

yes, it still works and I use all the time when playing as Mojave, Lost, Washington Brotherhood Chapters. Ad Victoriam

Does this still work?

The Maxson Chapter - Colorado Expedition mod does add some flare about there being a madness within the chapter on the ground of some paladins going crazy because of prolonged stealth boy usage. They are also reeling from being defeated by the hang dogs.

The Maxson Chapter has not gotten much cultural fluff yet, we know the name of the chapter leader and that theres a lot of women fighters in this chapter. The Lanius Legion and Lost Hills focus trees flesh out the fluff better than the chapter itself.

I play the chapter more because of it's interesting starting position. There are good chokehold defenses to the north but wide open plains to the south. I try to race to defeat the sun dogs ASAP since the canada tributary and short border with Santa Fe provides good defensive positions against future legion offensives.

There is also a good mod that fleshes out the chapter here on the workshop.

I'll get to it some day, but Stronger Lost Hills expeditions update is consuming my modding time. Asking about the chapter though means I probably will do it sooner than you might expect.

As someone who's clearly played them quite a bit, does the Maxson chapter have any quirks, like how the Guardians have Cardinals and not Paladins?

Have you put the Maxson Chapter on hold? It's one of my favorite chapters, would love to see it added to the namelist.

There you go @svampen. It took a while (I ended up making a whole other mod), but the Guardians turned out to basically take all the same territory as the old Steel Rangers did, so it wasn't hard to get them up to speed. Check out the change notes for more info on what i've changed today.

Oh ofcourse the Guardians are like the Outcasts, they have their own ranks and such. Im not entirely sure where to find the ranks but Cardinals may be Paladins.

Okay cool.

@svampen It won't cause any issues, but I haven't played most of the new guys yet so no updates on them as of now. I will update the description to acknowledge these.
@ecnahc Thank you! :)

Thank you. As someone who appreciates name lists, I have been a long time subscriber. I am also a Texan, so I appreciate the expansion.

Question. Those this mod work with all the new BOS chapters like the Guardians?

A lot of BoS players are waiting for the Brotherhood update

I totally will! My MP Group isn't playing right now, we're all waiting the BoS update.

Thanks for what you have done. Hopefully you can come back one day and do them all but if not fair to you thank you for the time and effort you put into this already

Texas should be complete! With 218 names in the longest list, and 118 between two others you're expected to use, Texas should finally be free of generic names! This took about 20 hours, so updates to the Alamo and Maxson chapters are unlikely to be soon. While every effort went to removing duplicates, some may exist. If you see them, let me know.

The Texan Brotherhood has been added! This is very initial, without any expansion zones included, nor testing for if the names will survive becoming Texas though I expect it to. I am likely to make additional updates today or at least this week. There are both flavourful options and standard Brotherhood names available, so you can take your pick. The AI should use both as appropriate, excluding the Initiate names, which it skips in favor of the flavourful ones.

The Texas and Alamo Brotherhood paths were refined this last update. The lack of flavor in the names is really starting to sting. I wish that there was at least some kind of "Texas Rangers" name list for the Lawkeepers. The lack of any division using "cowboys" in their name is also a missed opportunity.

Thanks for the progress update! Looking forward to your work.

@Soyuz. Hey so basically the issue with the remaining brotherhoods (Texas, Alamo, Maxson) is they have very complicated expansion paths, and I haven't played them to death to know what the best path(s) are. Maxson is really bad, because you just get "every colorado state" which is like.. twenty countries.

Some day, when I have the time i'll likely code some triggers to make names only appear when you've conquered those states, but at the moment I don't know what those are, or have the time to do them.

I'm kind of hoping Tandi's Legacy will simplify things for me, really.

Hey, do you think you could do Maxson's brotherhood?

Sweet thanks!

@theshivo09 Good news for you, the Steel Rangers have now been added! They are smaller and many states less populous, but they have a modest list for their future recruits!

Thanks dude

Hell i'd love to see a Steel Ranger list. That'd leave what Texas, Alamo, Maxson, and Arthurian left right?

aaand now the Washington Brotherhood has namelists! It'll likely still be early november for the new areas, though I might take a poke at the Steel Rangers, no promises there, depends on if I can ensure they're the Steel Rangers.

@ToastedPaper I'll be making namelists for each one, Texan, Washington, Arthurian, etc. Probably Alamo. Right now i've just uploaded the personal ones i'd already made, which was Western/Mojave.

Do these work for the all the BOS factions except the newly added ones? Like the Washington brotherhood?

Sweet

Yep, definitely gonna happen! Expect to see that addition in early november, once I've had a chance to play them and grasp their sensible path of expansion.

Any chance you can add some for the Texas Brotherhood?

You can clear the existing custom names of the starting units if you get the duplication at the start of the full namelists. Since those names are included at the start of the namelists, they'll all be renamed when you clear them. The benefit to including these names on the list is that you'll raise a new division with that name if they die.
