Are the AI default city names coming from a text file like the “Stars.txt” file in GalCiv2? The reason I ask is that in GC2, there would be hundreds of stars, and each game had a different flavor by pulling from the huge “Stars.txt” list. For instance, on larger maps, you might not even see the “Skowbo” system. Seeing the same names every game would get repetitive.
I see a problem with Elemental in that we’ll only be seeing a few score city names each game. Is the city list going to be randomized in any way (unlike GC2)? I don’t know how hard it would be to implement this, but I think would be nice to see different opponent city names each game.
