Commander Name Change?
 

Probably my faulty memory, but I thought I saw (somewhere???) that Commander's names could be changed, in-game. Is that correct, and if so, how? Could not find it in the Manual and in my current game I've got two guys with the same, exact name - a scout and a regular commander.

If the game is started with the --rename switch then you can rename commanders in the game.

If you have enabled renaming in the initial setup screen, then open the comanders stats view and type "r". That will open a box enabling you to rename the commander.

You cannot rename a pretender or prophet under any circumstances.

I find renaming more useful for designating special attributes, like a mage who has gotten lucky and picked up 2 additional astral paths as "4 Astral", and other things like that.
