Yes I understand this "*Popular" boardgame probably forced you to rename the town and therefore the arms company and faction ultimately... But... Cat'ion sounds like a great name. As does...

Cat'ion.
Caton.
Catia.
Cation.
Catom.
Catop.
Catose.
Catesia.
Catastic!
Catopolis.
Catapoli.
Catdoggia...
Catness.
Catopia.
Catopoli.

Catun... Meh. Capan... Meh, second rate Cat village maybe.

But it must be Cat... and it must be catchy!!! :mrgreen:

I know this patch, he tried to change it to catun (from capan) but the map still says capan. If you mouse over it, Tue tooltip says catun though. Anyway, as I'm pushing for Nekuman (catgirls that I wrote a bit of back story for, just search for it), I totally agree the city should have "cat" in the name.

I liked Cat'ion the best because it's sort of a joke; "Always use caution when dealing with Cat'ion..." Makes the faction pretty memorable.

That said; everything really needs a strong storytelling aspect about it, whenever that time comes. This game feels very "east asia meets roman empire" to me, so I feel like that alone is an epic feeling to have. Nekuman might be a good choice depending on where we'll end up with the game.

Personally, I'd love, love to see a few gladius sabers, shields, and legionnaires stocked into the game... Just imagine. Romans vs Japanese.

I'm afraid this cat thing that's happening here is harming bеes position as the supreme animal of Kenshi.

I have two complaints about the city formally called catan:

1: where is the weapons factory
2: it needs an open air bazaar

As for any non-human races/factions that are implemented, i WILL feed them to the cannibals.

That is all.

That's your prerogative, but rest assured, if you chose to do that, you will be branded as a villain and hunted down like the animal you are. Also, yeah those city improvements sound nice. You could dress it up even more with a bathhouse (maybe even an open-air one, which doesn't strip characters completely naked, you perverts), a few farms, looms, and some entertainment buildings, such as a theater or arena (for bonus points, combine them into a theater-arena, where the actors must place their bodies on the line).

Yeah, my biggest gripe with that city, is i do not see the weapon factories. All the weapons tell you their back story, yet i can not find these companies. I hope they will be implemented soon, as factions

UNLESS:
The original city was destroyed, and somewhere out there, is the lost city, that has ALL the weapon blueprints.

I always thought it was purposefully named after the board game. Hah.
