Description:

I have made this mod because the ship name in Vanilla are… lacking. So to improve the situation this mod was created! Many thanks to Kirino for providing a list of geographical features of Japan!

Changes:

• Added Weather names (First Class Destroyers)
• Added Plant names (Second Class Destroyers)
• Added Island names (Kaibokan/Escorts)
• Added River names (Light Cruisers)
• Added Mountain names (Heavy/ Battle Cruisers)
• Added Underwater names (Minelayers)
• Added Provinces names (Battleships)
• Added -ryu names (Carriers, Dragon)
• Added -ho names (Carriers, Phoenix)
• Added -kaku names (Carriers, Crane)
• Added -yo names (Carriers, Hawk)
• Added -ro names (Carriers, Heron)
• Added I-000 names (First Class Submarines)
• Added Ro-000 names (Second Class Submarines)
• Added Ha-000 names (Third Class Submarines)
• Added xxx Maru names (Merchant Vessels)
• Added Shrine names (Training Cruisers)

I know that Minelayers in the IJN were named after Islands/used other names, but I thought that I would give them more unique names. Also, please be aware that I don’t speak Japanese, so some names may be wrong. I tried to give the names a japanese feeling.
