AoE Ship Names Mod

Author File Description
robstening A very basic mod replacing the "language.dll" file, changing the names of all AoE (and RoR) ships as follows:

Scout Ship = Lembi/Lembus*
War Galley = Bireme*
Trireme = Quinquireme*
Cat. TriR = Deceres*
Jugg't = Seige Deceres*

These are the historically appropriate terms for the ships, graphics and data are not changed, only the names.

*Lembus is a single-decked ships with circa 50 oarsmen,
*Bireme is a doubkle-decker ship used by the Romans as a light fighting ship,
*Quinquireme was the standard battle-ship during the punic was with 5 decks and 200 oarsmen
*Deceres is gargantuan with 10 decks of oars and the most likely to carry catapults etc.
*Seige Deceres is a Deceres more heavily armed.
The larger the ship, the better the ranged weaponry.

= More of a novelty than a useful mod. =

This replaces the AoE lingo file, but the RoR names are changed as well.

Have fun :)

If you're fixing names of units to be more historically correct, you might want to look at a few other things as well, for example the Helepolis.

The mod is very limited in scope. It only renames a few ships.

Additional Comments:
I cannot see anyone wanting to download this in its current form.
