Enemy Ship Class Names

I understand that individual enemy ships can be named, like in GalCiv I. However, I was wondering if you can set the default enemy ship class names. So, for instance, if I had a .txt file of old battleship names, could I use that .txt file to modify the default Drengin/Yor/etc. ship class names? When encountering the enemy ships during the game, the ship class names would now reflect names from the .txt files rather then the standard "Battle Axe," "Defender," etc.

Ok, so either no one knows or no one cares?

I dunno. Look at the screenshots for information.

I didn't know you could rename individual enemy ships but assuming you can, it would probably not affect future ships since they would be a default design.

You can design and name your own ships but you cannot change the name of any core design.

Of course when/if you start editing the files almost anything is possible.

I dont think it's possible to have a list of names for the AI to use as class names.... but that would be nice!
