Improvements:

- Name generation. All units on strategic map now have correctly generated names. They consist of first names, 2nd name parts (for Mongols), last names or nicknames (for brigands and Prussians). All possible names are historically correct for a given nation.

- 50% more regiments will be auto-hired to garrison a castle after capturing it

- Chance of having ranged troops in garrisons of towns and castles decreased
