Description
Adds name lists utilizing the victory points and state populations as a guide for each Brotherhood chapter. There are sometimes special exceptions.

The Western Brotherhood includes Shi and Arroyo. High degree of granularity, with 5 namelists for all 4 sections of the naming scheme (Initiates, Knights, Paladins&Star Paladins, Heroes) as well as a master list of nearly 130 names released in an ordered fashion, with the higher ranks and further reaches towards the end of the list. (Unfortunately, the special paladins cannot be fixed.)

Also adds namelists for the Mojave Chapter, taking into account how much everyone hates them,and they're generally brutish occupation. Names like "Nipton Garrison" appearing before "Nipton Initiates" or "Nipton Knights", and many populous locations not receiving Paladins or Knights at all, or in the case of Jacobstown, not even Initiates.

The Washington Brotherhood and The Cause has namelists including the areas of Yakama, Olympus, Port Maw, and The Old Country. They're like the Western Brotherhood though with Conscripts instead of initiates, and The Cause doesn't have conscripts.

The Guardians inherit the old Steel Rangers names, with a few updates. Who needs paladins when you have Cardinals?

The Texan Brotherhood has been added, with a regular Brotherhood format and a more "Texan" format to play with. The existing naming scheme at game start was used, so nothing really cool like "cowboys" currently exists, though this is likely to change. This is the longest to date, with 218 names in the longest list, which still excludes roughly 100 other names you'd use in the same game!

Some of the names are also available for the Unity of Austin and Lone Star, in case they form Texas.

This leaves the Alamo, Montana and Maxson chapters without names. If there are any others, please comment.

The Maxson Chapter - Colorado Expedition mod does add some flare about there being a madness within the chapter on the ground of some paladins going crazy because of prolonged stealth boy usage. They are also reeling from being defeated by the hang dogs.

The Maxson Chapter has not gotten much cultural fluff yet, we know the name of the chapter leader and that theres a lot of women fighters in this chapter. The Lanius Legion and Lost Hills focus trees flesh out the fluff better than the chapter itself.

I play the chapter more because of it's interesting starting position. There are good chokehold defenses to the north but wide open plains to the south. I try to race to defeat the sun dogs ASAP since the canada tributary and short border with Santa Fe provides good defensive positions against future legion offensives.

There is also a good mod that fleshes out the chapter here on the workshop.

I'll get to it some day, but Stronger Lost Hills expeditions update is consuming my modding time. Asking about the chapter though means I probably will do it sooner than you might expect.

As someone who's clearly played them quite a bit, does the Maxson chapter have any quirks, like how the Guardians have Cardinals and not Paladins?

Have you put the Maxson Chapter on hold? It's one of my favorite chapters, would love to see it added to the namelist.

There you go @svampen. It took a while (I ended up making a whole other mod), but the Guardians turned out to basically take all the same territory as the old Steel Rangers did, so it wasn't hard to get them up to speed. Check out the change notes for more info on what i've changed today.

Oh ofcourse the Guardians are like the Outcasts, they have their own ranks and such. Im not entirely sure where to find the ranks but Cardinals may be Paladins.

Okay cool.

@svampen It won't cause any issues, but I haven't played most of the new guys yet so no updates on them as of now. I will update the description to acknowledge these.
@ecnahc Thank you! :)

Thank you. As someone who appreciates name lists, I have been a long time subscriber. I am also a Texan, so I appreciate the expansion.

Question. Those this mod work with all the new BOS chapters like the Guardians?
