In Riga, Estonia & Livonia, I have the King's Army, trained out of Königsberg (meaning Kingstown, or something similar). Both armies have participated heavily in the liberation of Hungary and the destruction of the Ottoman Empire in the Danube River region, and have been named accordingly. In Austria I have my 1st Army of the Danube and 2nd Army of the Danube. They are originally trained out of Berlin and Munich, but the same army has been fighting in the Rhine area for 50 years and are currently in Paris protecting the city from Revolutionaries (I don't want France going back to a monarchy since we're all republics now). Usually there are better armies outside the cities, plus I don't like wasting my best troops in siege assaults.

Typically when I capture a city, I send one of my 'ok' armies to take it, and my 1st Army to clear out enemy armies nearby.

They get that title because they are my best army by far with all 6 Republican Guard units, 4 Superior Line Infantry, 2 Frei-Korps, 2 Jaegers, 4 24-lber Foot Artillery, Death's Head Hussars, and General's Bodyguard. In my Prussian campaign, I have the 1st Army, under command of Ephraim Kettler, my 10 star and best general. In a Prussian Campaign, after spending rather too much time renaming all my regiments so they're in order (and ending up with the most experienced first) I have the likes of the 1st Eagles, 2nd Kestrals, 3rd Breachers, The 4th Unmoveables, 5th Flutes and Drums, 6th Indian Suns, 7th Royal Americans, the 25th St Peters', 26th Russian Regiment, and the 3rd Regiment of Cavalry 'Elephant Hunters', plus Royal artillery regiments used in carrying out a successful revolution. Anyone do this? And what names would you call suggest for yours, if they earned it? In either system, if a unit gets over 3exp (or does something like bring down an entire elephant unit by itself) it'll get a special name, just to make it that more personal. This is quite fun, as I can detach an entire regiment from a force and have them do independent stuff- the 4th Royal Highlanders 1st and 2nd btns, eg, captured Newfoundland, while the 5th Bedfordshire Fusiliers end up in India with the 6th Anglian Grenediers' first battalion. That is a fine system, although I'm also mucking around with a system in darthmod which has two battalions (1 battalion = 1 unit) a regiment, so I have, eg, the 2nd Westminster 1st Battalion and the 2nd Westminster 2nd Battalion. In vanilla ETW, each Line regiment unit represents one 'regiment' according to way they are automatically named- so, 1st Regiment of Foot, etc.

Very similar to the ships one, but for the land units.
