The Good, the Bad and the Ugly - the ToB Edition

This mod is an adaptation of my modification for TW Attila. It introduces nicknames into the game to make characters more recognizable and make the atmosphere of the game more authentic.

The nicknames aren't attached to definite names: there are random combinations of personal names and nicknames. (Thus, they aren't linked with the characters' traits, unfortunately.) Also, I've left a little possibility of characters without nicknames to appear.

Unlike the original mod, this one doesn't distinguish between different cultures, there is one set for all of them. It is based on the "barbarian" nickname set, which has been enlarged and also includes authentic (and sometimes odd or funny) nicknames from the original sources such as Heimskringla, Njáls saga, (a little bit of) Irish epics and some others. The number of nicknames is 189 for men and 76 for women. The nicknames are applied to all factions including spawned viking raiders and the final Great Armies.

Known issues:
- If the combination of name and nickname is too long, it can be shown only partly in some elements of the UI. However, the full name still can be seen in the tooltip.
