FAQ:

-with the IJN being much smaller than the Royal Navy, this shipnames.txt list is really only good for small to standard size games.  Larger games will see repeats.
-due to the small number of actual IJN warships, I had to embellish this list.  I did stay within standard IJN naming comventions though (explained farther down).
-the IJN merchant marine was huge to say the least, I was able to use the actual names of freighters with names to spare.
-Many of the ship names in this file are very, very similar, and some could be repeats, if you find any please report them to the shipnames.txt thread in the Matrix Games forum with the two classes that have ships of the same name so I can fix and update the file as necessary.


How to Install: 

1. Unzip the file into whichever DW>Customization>Theme folder you wish to use it in. 
2. Start the game. 

I have noted that if you make changes to an existing theme and try to start a game with manual AI empire settings, the game will get into a bug loop, to avoid this do the following: 

1. Change back to the default game theme. 
2. Start a quick start random game. 
3. Quit back to the main menu. 
4. Swap to your modified theme and start a game. 

This will clear all existing information about the previous game and allow you to set up and start a new game with the modified theme.
