race names & race output names

[harkan]

Is there a way to extend the output name dependant on a ruleset, i.e. choosing the ruleset in 40K Chaos files of the Thousand Sons then sets the race name and race output name to be 'Thousand Sons', plus choosing another ruleset such as the Chosen of Ahriman would result in the second ruleset adding to the race name and race output name instead of over writing it.

race names & race output names

The name overrides are exactly: overrides. There is currently no way to synthesize a name from components via rulesets. However, what you could do is have the "chosen" ruleset set the name to be "Thousand Sons: Chosen of Ahriman" or some such. That will yield the desired results within the framework that currently exists.
