I love the art of this ship, to me it is one of the only ships that really looks like a battleship; this ship has that "If we run out of ammo we can RAM them look" 
I fly a raven and all those wings look delicate.

I totally <3 that vid. There is a fine and proper artistry to wielding verbal scalpels, such that the crap-poster you've slashed doesn't even know they've been cut. But verbal bludgeons -- Those are just fun. |

Raptor literally means bird of prey. It is not an "almost bird" (not to mention birds are dinosaurs). TEST Alliance BEST Alliance |

Birds are direct descendants of dinosaurs. The only living ones, besides crocodiles, which are far more loosely related.
You might also be interested in knowing that nearly every case of fossilized skin imprints of dinosaurs found showed signs of feathers.
T-Rex probably looked more like this. TEST Alliance BEST Alliance |

But it's still a drake, part of a drake fleet.
A dragon, part of a Dragon fleet sounds much more bad ass. |

It isn't a case of "multiple meanings". "Velociraptor" means "swift bird of prey" or "swift predator". Raptor is Latin, FYI. The word significantly predates the discovery of the velociraptor. TEST Alliance BEST Alliance |
