Naming minions
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
My zombie MM on Test was called Papa Lazarou, and all of his minions were called Dave. (Summoning bind: "Youuu'rrree mmyyy wiiiffeee noowww..")
Is it time for the dance of joy yet?
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

I was thinking, the Dave idea sounds good - then you won't notice if one dies cause the next one will be Dave as well.. Hmmm
I was going to call them all Tim for that reason..

"A Scrapper is a lot like a chainsaw. Somewhat hard to handle, incredibly dangerous, and by far the most fun when wielded by the slightly insane."
Well I trundled through Beta with....
1. Plague, Famine and Pestilence
2. War and Death

Nice to have the undead Horsemen bowing and scraping to me
I've been toying with these names for my Mercenaries to-be Mastermind;
Pvt. Gula
Pvt. Avaritia
Pvt. Acedia
Sgt. Ira
Sgt. Invidia
Col. Superbia
Might shift them up a notch, starting off with Pvt. Luxuria and ending with Col. Invidia.

Click on henchman > Right-click > Choose Rename
It's permanent for each individual henchman and can be redone at any time.
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).
