Naming minions


Accel

 

Posted

Just thought I'd start a thread to see how other people liked to name their minions...

I had mercenaries called Bert and Ernie, the medic would have been called George I hadn't yet decided what the more elite troops would have been called - maybe Laurel and Hardy, and then Chaplin (although I don't like Chaplin much, so I would have kept my thinking cap on while I levelled up).

i was thinking of having some zombies called "mandy" "lucy" and "elizabeth". or mercs called "me", "you" and "someone else"


I am the Blaster, I have filled the role of Tank, Controller and Defender
Sometimes all at once.
Union EU player! Pip pip, tally ho, top hats and tea etc etc

I'm going with the "nameless minions" thing for my Mastermind. My soldiers will be named something like "Operative 9A" and "Operative 5D", just so that there isn't any of that pesky emotional attachment involved.

Easier to send them to die if they're just statistics.

That'll just make one accidentaly "forget" to give them buffs before sending them against archvillains. :P

It's permanent for each individual henchman and can be redone at any time.
