First response: Here's a few more: Joyes -> Blake βοΈ - Very nice Jerome -> Jerome Bonaparte βοΈ Sacken -> Osten-Sacken βοΈ Schwerin -> Mecklenburg-Schwerin I don't believe the general named Mecklenburg-Schwerin was still active during the Napoleonic Wars. I have no Idea witch general Schwerin from Prussia ET means: Napoleon defeated even at Waterloo one of them. π€ - quite confusing tbc.... Ferdinand is known as Charles William Ferdinand, Duke of Brunswick-LΓΌneburg, Prince of Brunswick-WolfenbΓΌttel in English, which translates to Karl Wilhelm Ferdinand in German. In the Georges Lefebvre version of Napoleon (it's a great book), he is known as Brunswick, which is Braunschweig in German. Frederick is Charles Frederick, Grand Duke of Baden, which translates to Karl Friedrich in German. Schwerin is Frederick Francis I, Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, which could translate to Friedrich Franz I. I asked someone who knows a lot about Napoleonic Wars and he told me I should go with Mecklenburg-Schwerin. These German noblemen are indeed very annoying to translate... For Charles, at least O'Hara makes sense since he showed up in both 1798 and 1775, American Revolution 1 and 3, and Suppress Revolution.

Perhaps we can get rid of everyone with predominantly Prussian background. Which... only leaves us Friedrich Franz I.

Eugene de Beauharnais is referred to as Eugene as many cases so that's fine. Gouvion is Saint-Cyr.

Eugene de Beauharnais is referred to as Eugene as many cases so that's fine. Gouvion is Saint-Cyr. I know that without help this would be a mission impossible. Thanks to all ! Eugene is mostly used, Saint-Cyr I updated directly and Charles o'Hara is for me the most logical. I use this to refresh my history knowledge, so sometimes my answers take very long. Excuse me.

This is all great and all, but I have one question that keeps me up at night... One that haven't been answered for years... Who on Earth is Pasha?? I mean he have the EW6 portrait for Ali but Ali's already in the game. This guy is like naming Murat "Marshal" or Wellington "Duke."

This guy - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhammad_Ali_of_EgyptWait I thought Muhammad Ali is this guy imgur.com/yu9akvR and when I searched on google "Mehemet Ali" it leads to Muhammad Ali. As far as I'm aware there isn't any Egyptian rulers named Mehemet Ali that's not you know, THAT Muhammad.

Darth Vader, that would be great, also how do you edit the city names, because I am wondering if breme is an actual city in Germany Go to assets/area names and you should find the file. Open the file and edit it with MT manager. You need Android to do this though. I apologise for the late reply. I copied your post nochbv, because these are ET-glitches that we will fix here. I thought breme it is the english spelling - thank You for your correction nochbv. If you find more incorrect spellings, please post it here.

1. Dombrowski's name in Polish is Jan Henryk DΔ
browski. 2. He shows up in SNS. There was a discussion on whether Charles is Lee or O'Hara, and I agree with O'Hara. 3&4&5. Yes, but easytech are using neither their native language or the more commonly used terms. People call Victor-Perrin either Victor or Victor-Perrin, Claude doesn't make sense. Same for Sidney Smith. Ferdinand VII is technically correct, but since he's Spanish it makes more sense to use the Spanish form. I did not answer untill now, cause I am still working on this verry interresting questions. 1) DΔ
browski is the correct Name of this national hero in oland. Dombrowski is the german transcription. He is even in the Arc d'e Triumph, there his name is written: DOMBROWSKY We don't have 'Δ
', so I write him Dabrowski. 2) I am missing knowledge. 3,4,5) I found all this names much more precise. I took some time to add umlautz to the game, now BlΓΌcher, BΓΉlow and DΓΆbeln can be correct. Amadeo III -> Colli Great ! Thank you John Marston , I had no idea before who Amadeo could be. Edit: I already copied this, and then I found Vittorio Amedeo III di Savoia
re di Sardegna dal 1773 al 1796 So that means Sardinia's Amadeo III is the ruler of Sardinia but not the commander of the Piedmontese forces as shown in Italy War. Maybe they were too lazy to make another general.

Sorry for necroposting, but I realized there's another one we missed: Treville should be Latouche-Treville or La Touche-Treville. His last name was La Touche (Latouche) initially and added the Treville last name after his uncle died.

Thank You for necroposting Erich von Manstein. I added also this, like almost all other corrections to my updated EW4-mod. I am happy for every help.
