Yup. Empire: Total War. I've got a game, so I'm making an LP. First of all - Who shall we be?

As it turns out, the pen was in fact a poor choice for melee combat in comparison to the sword.
So I just started playing this game and I accidentally nuked the moon.

Some crappy, hopeless country that you have to unlock to play, obviously!

No chance of losing = no fun.

Poland is actually pretty easy.

In either case I vote you play the arch enemies of my nation in my AARS, Aka the Ottomans or France.

I voted Prussians, they have an easy start but do they ever have the shit kicked out of them after two or three years.  Seriously all of Europe but England and a few minor nations turns red pretty fast.

I don't believe you can name units, but sure.

Yes actually you can, if you open up the unit info window on units in your army near the top theres a place that has like "1st Line Infantry" if you click on that you can rename the unit.
