Due to popular demand both Victory and Boaty McBoatface have been included, but you will have to uncomment their entries if you want them to appear ingame.
To do so just remove the leading # from their lines. Ctrl + F should help you find them with ease.
You need to go to <Steam root folder>steamappsworkshopcontent281990681545718 (this might differ if you have games/workshop content installed to other places than the folder Steam is installed to) and open the .zip file found there. Edit the .txt file found within and uncomment Boaty McBoatface and/or Victory.
Made possible by contributions both small and large from: Beer4TheBeerGod, BrokenSky, chaostk, ecololuc, EmperorZelos, Ifreann, Kordishal, mbpoblet, TheBeautifulVoid, Tim_Ward, Adm. Yanxa, and most likely others I forgot to mention. Shame on me.
Known issues: sequential names currently block out random names for armies, workarounds are in place.
