Ok here we go in this format...
Lets see who is creative
Ship Type: Armageddon Ship Name: Solar Ghost V Reasoning: Just liked the name and the "V" represents how many I lost of this type of ship since I first got my pilots license/skill for this class and type. All my ships, by class and type, are roman numeraled to reflect loss - hence this is my 5th Armageddon I have had due to Destruction in flight.

I usually go after greek, latin, or just ancient language names.
Names I have used in past: Apoc: ADRASTOS (Meaning "Not inclined to run away") [Sold off] Crusader: AIOLOS (Meaning "quick-moving or nimble") [blown up] Retribution: ANDRASTE (Meaning "invincible in Celtic") [2x, 1 blown up due to lag in a mission, 2nd one is just very far away so its never used]

All my fighting ships are named after world war two German warships (Doenitz, Tirpitz, Lutznow, Admiral Hipper, Von Roeder, Bismark, Graf Spee... etc) and my mining barge is called Nostromo (the ore hauler from Alien).
Usually name my haulers by number just to keep track of them and whats in them.

Becuase you are scared to death to loose a ship that just cost you 150mil and is completely not worth it?

Ship Type: Raven Ship Name: Asteroid (Omber) Reasoning: Pre-scanner nerf, this was the most efficient name for a raven since raven looked much like Omber and it was difficult to spot in local. This name has been lucky. The ship has been killed once in one year. Survivng dozens of fleet battles, 1v1s and small engagements. It achieved over 250 killmails and over 1000 kills and was on its 4th insurance period before it got blown up due to my overestimation of structure tanking ability. The second re-incarnation has proven just as deadly.

Ship Type: Megathron (Blasterthron) Ship Name: Beyond Hope Reasoning: Its a blasterthron. I should have lost it several time over by now. But I'v been lucky, and haven't had to add the 'II' too its name. This was my first Battleship. Before I got it I though that me owning a battleship (this is about 2 years ago) was 'beyond hope'...
Ship Type: Diemos Ship Name: Beyond Despair Reasoning: I desided to name all my close range blaster ships with the 'Beyond' theam. Had a Tristan as well but it got blown up a log time ago and I forget its name.
Ship Type: Dom Ship Name: Supream Drone Commander Reasoning: I'v got Gal BS lvl 5, Heavy drones lvl 5 and Drone interfacing lvl 5. nuf said.

I'm a pirate and whenever I decide to hunt in a system I will name my ship after whoever looks like the biggest noob in local to try and fool people. For instance if I'm in a caracel and theres a month old guy named stinkynoob it'll be "stinkynoob's caracel".
I also use roman numerals to depict ship losses but I can't remember what #s I'm on right now.
Hawk: Last Chance I was in a bad way a long time ago and spent every penny I had on a hawk to run missions with. I was left flat broke so I named it last chance because that was what it was for me.
Harpy: Volsung After sigurd the volsung a german hero. He's more commonly known as siegfried and is kind of a cross between saint george and achilles.
Wolf: Fenrir Fenrir is a giant wolf from norse mythology who was imprisoned with magical chains. CCP stole my name and used it for a freighter just to spite me.
Manticore: Black Hand Named after the group that assassinated archduke ferdinand.
I have alot more but don't feel like typing all of a sudden.

Thanatos: Semnai Furor - This is a combination of two names for the Furies.
Moros: Sentient Void
Apocalypse: Sol Invictus - Means "Invincible Sun"
Armageddon: Sol Immortalis - Means "Immortal Sun" (duh)
Megathron: Deggial - Deggial, or Dajjal, is an islamic version of the anti-christ. Dajjal can do miracles and he will lead men away from god. Not your typical villain, leading people into damnation through acts of apparent benevolence. This is my longest living Megathron, it has been reincarnated by GM White once. Inspired by Therion
Megathron: Vril-Ya - Vril-Ya were a race of angels who lived deep underground, at the core of the Earth. Inspired by Therion
Scorpion: Ship of Berik - Berik was a gothic chieftain who gathered three tribes to him and led them on a crusade against the christian Roman Empire Inspired by Therion
Dominix: Lady of the Night - Actually, the explanation for this name is a rather bad pun regarding it's high slot layout.
Ishkur: Lantda Isil - Means "Falling Moon"
Helios: Coyolxauhqui - Because Itztlacoliuhqui-Ixquimilli was too long.

Im afraid i fall into the unoriginal realm of ancient names etc - although i also take from books. I have:
Apocolypse: Illearth Stone From The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant The Unbeliever
Raven Navy Issue: Apollyon The dictionary states; destroy utterly, the Destroyer; the name given to the angel of the bottomless pit answering to the Hebrew name Abaddon
Scorpion: Nabu God of Wisdom and Science (seemed fitting)
Megathron: Marduk Title, supreme god of all diety's and was called a False god by the Babylonians
We'll all my ships have names similar to this my Favourite is my Illearth Stone :)

Enyo=GFS Inferno (Fits the red colour and mena look of the ship) Brutix=GFS Stoneslayer (I use it mainly for mining) Taranis=GFS Astrodromeus (Means Starrunner. Good name for an inty) And ships I don't yet own: Dominix=GFS Astrospis (Means Star shield. Sounds cool. and the Domi can put up a nice tank) Megathron=GFS Hybris (or Hybris Gallente) (Means pride. Hybris Gallente=Pride of Gallente/Gallentean pride, not quite sure which)

actually it costed me 30mil.
corp has the bpo
...and I call it "Primal Fear" simply because a cormorant with a black shiny skin and dark yellow-orangey lights does have a rather scary look. ----------------

I have a variety of sources for naming my ships. Sometimes i use my imagination which tends to combine a variety of things i see around me, Variations on these names are then used for ships built from the same hull: e.g.
executioner: "Pot Noodle" crusader: "Super Noodle" Malediction: "Dark Noodle"
Also many of my ship names are drawn from works of Science Fiction, but particularly useful authors from the perspective of ship naming are Iain M. Banks and Anthony Reynolds. I also use a Roman Numerals system to indicate a previous ship of the same type has been killed in one way or another.
My favourite three ship names i have currently:
Ethics Gradient II (Retribution) Furious Purpose (Armageddon) Sweetcakes III (Dominix)

Ship Type: Arbitrator Ship Name: Auroroa MKVII Reasoning: Fun little word...aurora.... MK VII signifies its the 7th one ive had.

He is told by reception that, unfortunately, his regular 'girl' is off that night, but as it had been a particularly tough week he agreed to see another girl.
He goes upstairs to the room where an athletic brunette is waiting on the bed. The dwarf places his briefcase on the floor and undresses. He then opens his case, pulls out 4 springs and attaches one to each foot and hand. He procedes to mount the confused prostitute and they begin.
15 exhausting minutes later the dwarf rolls over and the breathless and red faced prostitute exclaims: 'WOW, that is the best I've ever had! What do you call that position!?' to which the dwarf smugly replies, 'Oh that? That's just the Four Sprung Dwarf Technique!'
Also I liken amarr ships to Audi's!

Edited by: Kelador Stormwolf on 30/01/2006 16:46:48 I have a Bantam frigate that I used for mining when I first started. Grew out of it pretty quick but it's called ChickenShip - because Bantams are fighting [edit: stupid swear filter doesn't like the word for male chicken that rhymes with 'rock' but starts with a 'C'] and the ship is unarmed (except for mining lasers) and had to run away alot.
I also have a Condor called MyOtherShipIsAFerox and I'm tempted to call my Moa Lawn :P "I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it." |

I name all my ships after*****tails. My current home reads like a good party to be honest:
B-52, Barbados Sunrise, Grasshopper, Kir Royale, La Habana, Rusty Nail, Sazerac, Screwdriver, Singapore Sling, Touchdown Tea, Vienna Soother, Virgin Mary, Zombie.

Reason: While I don't drink and fly anymore ever since I once lost first a Badger Mk II full of expensive named items, Megacyte and Zydrine and then my then most expensive asset (t2 fitted Harpy), plus pod and full set of +3 implants (I was so mad about losing that indy that I went back and meant to "teach them a lesson" ), I still like having some nice drink just in sight. Besides, while having a beer every now and then is nice and dandy, I prefer*****tails for their taste. And their names are nice!
In addition to the above list, I've also recently lost a Scorpion Sting (Scorpion-class BS) to lag, petition is still going, I wasn't finished with that drink yet!  ____________________

Edited by: Morgana Janan on 30/01/2006 18:18:48 I tend to run with a central theme for ships for each race. At the moment, since I'm pretty low level, I'm using female mythological figures for my Gallente combat ships.
Ship Type: Gallente Ship Name: Shateki Reasoning: Shateki is Japanese for "target practice." All shuttles I use are named Shateki, regardless of race.
Ship Type: Incursus Ship Name: Alecto III Reasoning: In Greek mythology Alecto was one of the three Furies Virgil identified by name, in her case the name meaning "unceasing." This is the third ship by that name I've owned, the two being lost to my own stupidity/pirates with bigger guns than me.
Ship Type: Iteron I Ship Name: Sisyphus I Reasoning: In Greek mythology Sisyphus was a man condemned to spend eternity in the underworld pushing a boulder up a steep hill. Every time he nearly reached the top of the hill, the boulder would roll back down to the bottom and he'd be forced to start all over again. It seemed a fitting name for a ship whose thankless task consists entirely of hauling junk from one place to another. Odds are that when I get around to upgrading my Industrial Ship skill so I can use higher level Iterons (also for hauling the junk I collect like a packrat), they'll be further iterations in the Sisyphus line.
Ship Type: Thorax Ship Name: Nemain I Reasoning: In Irish mythology Nemain was a goddess of war, her name meaning 'panic' or 'frenzy.' Her specialty was causing that aspect among warriors. She was also possibly an aspect of Morrigan, the Irish goddess of war.
These are planned names for ships I do not yet own but am considering/working towards evntually:
Ship Type: Dominix Ship Name: Tiamat I Reasoning: Tiamat was a Babylonian/Sumerian goddess/monster and diety of salt water and the seas. Her form was that of a fearsome dragon. When she and her consort Apsu were found to be plotting to murder the younger gods, Apsu was struck down by the god Enki. In response she sent forth hordes of her own offspring to wage war upong the gods, terrible monsters like sea serpents, storm dragons, and fish and scorpion-men. She was eventually slain by Marduk, her corpse cut in half and used to form the heavens and the earth. The Dominix's ability to deploy swarms of drones reminded me of her being the mother of all monsters.
Ship Type: Megathron Ship Type: Morrigan I Reasoning: In Irish mythology, Morrigan (or The Morrigan) was the raven of battle, the terrible phantom queen goddess of war and conflict. Seemed appropriate to me, and I just like the name.
If they release teir 3 battleships, I might name that one - if I bother - Morrigan and instead name the Megathron Agrona after the Celtic Britain goddess of carnage. I'll probably use other such names for assault, heavy assault, and battlecruisers, just sticking to the theme, if I bother going with the tech 2 ship route. If afterwards I decide to train up another race's ships, I'll probably come up with another theme for each. For Minmitar mythological monsters like Surtur, Kraken, Leviathan, Fenris, etc, and if I go Amarr instead maybe legendary weapons, like Cortana, Durandal, Joyeuse, Kusanagi, etc. I refuse to use Caldari ships ICly because my character is something of a xenophiliac (in the sense of being the opposite of normal Caldari xenophobia) and OOCly because the Caldari and Caldari ships seem too popular.

Ship Type: Ishtar Ship Name: The Win Button Reasoning: Because it's just an awesome ship :D
Ship Type: Scorpion Ship Name: Evil Issue Scorpion Reasoning: See my 2nd eve flash: 'WTF?!' Also my first BS and yes I still have it. Insured it for the fourth time last week. I added the Issue part because there's a Navy Raven Issue.
Ship Type: Raven Ship Name: Evil Issue Raven Reasoning: Hey I had an Evil-Issue Scorp I might as well go with an Evil Issue Raven
Ship Type: Enyo Ship Name: Red Raver Reasoning: Because it's red and I mostly use it for 0.0 npc'ing which I do while listening to rave music.. or something.. RED RAVER
Ship Type: Buzzard Ship Name: Enigma Reasoning: Because a covert ops ship sort of has a mysterious and evil shadowy nature to it. It might be right next to you at any time.. lurking.. setting up a warp in point for notorious killmail hogging pirates... etc
Ship Type: Armageddon Ship Name: Pain Stick Reasoning: HURTS
Ship Type: Dominix Ship Name: Dominator III Reasoning: A name similar to its original except for threatening. It's also a suicide/throw away ship (entire setup minus insurance payback is roughly 20mil) which is why I number them.
Ship Type: Dominix Ship Name: OMGMININGBOAT\o/ Reasoning: In an effort to find new ways to harass people without losing security rating I devised a tactic in which my Dominix would appear to be mining in low sec. Basically I just sat in a popular low sec system with one laser and a full compliment of mining drones happily mining away. The rest of my fitting was pure PVP which resulted in.. many angry pirates. Of course to make the show more convincing I renamed my ship to something more noobish and mining related.
Ship Type: Thorax Ship Name: U.S.S. Body bag IX Reasoning: I haven't flown the rax much since the RMR patch but before that it was my most favorite suicide boat. Nothing like having 3000 tanked armor while moving at high speed and having 8 heavy drones tear away battleships. Since these raxes didn't put a dent in my budget I tended to have a rather serious suicidal nature with them.. which is why I've named them all Body bagÆs. The U.S.S. part was just added for more comic relieve and again the number stands for which generation it is.
Ship Type: Harpy Ship Name: Merlette Reasoning: Merlin.. Merlette.. just sounded cuter
Ship Type: Manticore Ship Name: BOOM HEADSHOT!!! Reasoning: Ventrillo > Ok a frigate undocked..uncloaking..locking.. missiles awaaay.. and..and.. BOOM!! HEADSHOT!!~
Ship Type: Gallente Navy Comet Ship Name: Pegasus Reasoning: Just a cool name for a cool ship. I only own the thing for pimping purposes anyway.
Ship Type: Small Mobile Warp Disruptor Ship Name: You're screwed! Reasoning: Not a ship but thought I should add it. 'You are unable to warp as you are within 15000 meters of the Small Mobile Warp Disruptor, You're screwed!'
Ship Type: Eris Ship Name: You're severely screwed! Reasoning: See above
Ship Type: Kestrel / Caracal Ship Name: Suicide boat Reasoning: More a direct description than a name. If you see halve a dozen of these warp in your belt in Jita.. start running.
Ship Type: Raptor Ship Name: Craptor Reasoning: Because I hate this ship. I only fly it because it makes a better long range tackler than a crow.
While in gangs/fleets I also like to change my shipname to 'Pat = Primary' or 'Cmdr Patrick = FC' because.. you know.. Pat must die

Ship Type: Mammoth Ship Name: Beast of Burden IV Reason: Because it's an old workhorse, and also because I lost 3 of them previously 
Ship Type: Sigil Ship Name: Scabbage Reason: Because it sounds similar to Scavenge and is my speedy hauler, and the Scab part is because it doubles as a blockade runner
Ship Type: Tristan Ship Name: Mushroom! Mushroom! Reason: Because there's lots of BadgerBadger ships around.. also because it looks like a mushroom on it's side... see? I can do lateral thinking, me 
Ship Type: Anathema Ship Name: Dagger Reason: Cloak and... (its a covert ops ship people you know, shrouded in secrecy..?) (j/k)
Ship Type: Prophecy Ship Name: Fat Bird II Reason: Because it is! (And I lost one once)

Obscure book references for the win  I had a Rifter named "So Much For Subtlety" very early in game. Should get me another really, they're great once again.
The Nebuchadnezzar and Lady MacBeth I recognize, too.
Here's some of my own: Typhoon: "Thunder Child" Reaper (yes that was even before the above Rifter): "Star Weaver" Typhoon (killed in action): "Moon Rising" (that was way before Red Moon Rising) Raven: "Sun Ascendant"
And some more not so subtle ones: Tempest: "A Phoenix Exultant" (not very obscure really) Mammoth: "Finity's End" Mammoth: "Nor Crystal Tears"

Ship Type: Caracal Ship Name: Pegasus Reasoning: This ship kinda looks like something which deserves a name like pegasus, light but swift and deadly - Also, its the same name as the Battlestar Pegasus, from the new Battlestar Galactica series, looks and fights pretty damn cool :P __________________________________________________ "Dont put all your eggs in one basket" "Why?"

I like to think my ship collection is actually a collection of cars.
Ship Type: Rupture Ship Name: Cadillac Reasoning: It's kind of a bulky ship, and I usually fly it armor plated so as a Mobster I like to think I'm cruisin around in an armor plated Cadillac.
Ship Type: Bellicose Ship Name: Delorian Reasoning: You rarely see anyone flying them anyway but when you do you do a double take :)
Ship Type: Cyclone Ship Name: GTO Reasoning: It purrs like a kitten and packs a nasty punch.
Ship Type: Claw Ship Name: Ferrari Reasoning: A fitting name I think for a fast ship.
Ship Type: Stiletto Ship Name: Maserati Reasoning: What can I say I like fast expencive cars.
Ship Type: Typhoon Ship Name: Hummer Reasoning: Yep it's my sports utility vehicle, AND it consumes ammo like the SUV consumes gas!

Don't remember all the ships I have, but here's some notable ones...
Comet : Green Machine Reason : Other then it being literally green, I thought it would be a fun name for a fun little ship, that is until I lose it...
Apocalypse : Toast Monster Reason : A few months ago I was mining in a 0.0 system with my corp, and I decided to go make myself some toast as the area has been nearly empty for the past couple of days. Although I made the mistake of not handing off gang leadership, woke up in a new clone. So an Apocalypse lost to of all things toast =(

Well, I'm pretty new to this game, so I don't have as many ships to choose from.
Ship Type: Tristan Ship Name: Outstretched Hand Reasoning: I purchased this ship before I settled into any naming conventions. So named simply because of its shape.
Ship Type: Catalyst Ship Name: Dayspring Reasoning: The first ship to follow my naming conventions. Particularly named due to the incredible power that punches out of this little package.
Ship Type: Thorax Ship Name: Gone Astray Reasoning: Second to use my naming conventions. So chosen because it can effectively use a MWD.
Ship Type: Brutix Ship Name: Arrow Into Night Reasoning: An exception to the naming convention. No particular reason for this name.
Ship Type: Megathron Ship Name: Death's Dark Shadow Reasoning: Technically I don't have this one yet, but that's just a matter of time. This one will follow the naming convention, with this particular name chosen for obvious reason.

haven't flown a raven since i lost the alwaysless, the rest of my ships have more transatory names to confuse the enemy, however, they're all fun/imaginative/whatever...

Haulers usually get the names of sunk ships. Got a Tricolor, a Herald of Free Enterprise a Graf Spee etc etc etc.

Edited by: Vina on 02/02/2006 01:32:42 My favorite thread. Anyway...
Ships Past and present:
Rattlesnake - Nyuu - I shouldn't even have to say anything for this one.
Raven Navy Issue - Arika - Most powerful one in the season.
Tempest - Atsuko - ass-kick version of nuku.
Raven - Yoriko - At the time was my main battleship, and Yoriko is my favorite kind of character in anime.
Scorpion - Narusegawa - Name of my first scorp, which is nearly 3 years old now. Back when I got it, it was the best BS, and ofc, naru kicks ass too.
Scorpion - Yuuna - This is what I call all my scorps now. I dunno why though tbh.
Eagle - Silk - Not *extremely* powerful, but still ecchi!
Cerberus - Vivi - Way more powerful.
Rook - Chii
Falcon - Sumomo - is the little one.
Harpy - Nanoha - She's long range. Like railguns.
Hawk - Fate - Close range
Worm - Vita - Cause she's odd.
Buzzard - Minazuki - Cause she's cute, like the buzzard. -----------------------------------

my first BS
ship type: Raven ship name: Ta'veren reasoning: reference to a type of person in a book who has an attribute about them that bends reality around them their way :) The Damsel is no longer in distress. She was rescued enough times that she got the hint and installed better security systems at home. |

Harpy: G.S. Deschain Falcon Reason: Falcon of Deschain was a bit cooler, but didn't fit. I just imagine the ship as being a bit like Roland Deschain's falcon, David. It's a kickass ship, especially useful for fighting much larger ships, such as battleships whose guns are too big to touch it (David beat Cort to ****!), and it even looks birdlike.
Eagle [still on order from NAGA, damn the waiting list]: G.S. Gilead Pistol Reason: It shoots really hard and really far, just like Roland's Gilead pistols.
Caldari Tier 3 sniper battleship [if they ever make it, I'll be first in line for one]: G.S. Deschain Reason: The ultimate gunner ship. Need I say more?
Ferox: G.S. Incinerator Reason: I'd already used Eviscerator for my Moa, before battlecruisers were released.
Moa: G.S. Eviscerator Reason: I always wanted a ship with this name. It's my absolute favorite name.
Caracal [sold]: Disemboweler Reason: I actually got this ship after the Eviscerator, so I wanted to go with that theme. After the missile nerf, I never trained the new missile skills (I still only have 64K in missiles, I'm a gunner at heart) so it got kinda useless and I sold it.
Osprey [sold]: Water Buffalo Reason: I was naming industry-related ships after beasts-of-burden, or something like that, and it was a mining ship. Mining is hell, so I got rid of it. Good riddance.
Cormorant: G.S. Sound and Fury Reason: 7 guns firing at once is nice and loud, and if you just look at the ship, it looks like it thinks it's pretty badass...but in reality, it's not fantastically powerful, it's just a hopped-up frigate.
Coercer [lost in combat]: Razorwing Reason: Look at it. It's sharp (hell, it looks like you could shave with it. Maybe.) And it flies really fast. I used it as an ultimate shuttle before the oversized AB/MWD nerf, with a 10MN AB and a full set of overdrive injectors in the lowslots. It was great for travel and for collecting loot, because of the relatively large cargo hold (although nanos are better for loot collection). Due to the nerf, I finally trained up the MWD skill and starting using my Executioner instead, but it's no good for collecting loot.
Merlin: G.S. Dark Falcon Reason: I named this ship long before the Deschain Falcon...the Merlin is rather birdlike, and a rather dark shade of grey, and I thought it was a cool name. I like it.
Kestrel [on loan to Soffiarme]: G.S. Redwing Reason: I have no idea
Condor: G.S. Desecrator Reason: I was going to set it up as a tackler, before I decided I liked my Executioner better for that job. I just sorta thought it was a good name for a tackler, not sure why.
Punisher: G.S. Golden Blade Reason: It's gold. And it's a fun toy for hurting stuff. 'Nuff said.
Executioner: G.S. Slingblade I don't even know if it's a real word (other than the movie title) but it seemed like a good name for an Executioner. It's small and sharp.
Iteron Mk V: Nikolai's ***** [word for male genitalia] You know how the default name for a ship is [Character Name]'s [Ship Name]? Like "Nikolai Nuvolari's Iteron Mk V"? I wanted to make it look like the default name, except with "*****" instead of "Iteron Mk V", but it wouldn't fit with my full name, so I shortened it to Nikolai. It's not as cool 
Badger Mk II: G.S. Elephant Reason: The beasts-of-burden thing.
Badger: G.S. Yak Reason: Same as above -------------------------------------[04:04:04] Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk

As for the reasoning behind them, well, there really isn't. They just sounded appropriate for Amarr ships.

Ship type: Raven Ship Name: Badyear Blimp Reasoning: Inspired by a scene from 'Spaceballs'... Lonestar in reference to Spaceball 1: "Uh oh, here comes the Badyear Blimp!"
Ship type: Ferox Ship Name: Pollux Reasoning: I dig the idea of naming ships after figures from mythology, which I think I picked up from Babylon 5. All the Earth destroyers were named after characters from Greek mythology and I just thought that was cool.
Ship type: Cormorant Ship Name: Agamemnon Reasoning: Same reason as above
Ship type: Iteron Ship Name: Ihaul Reasoning: well... kind of self explanatory
Ship type: Osprey Ship Name: Digdug Reasoning: also self explanatory
Ship type: Executioner Ship Name: Zap Reasoning: Seemed funny and also fairly accurate in describing the little guy... it buzzes around and goes, Zap! Zap!

Shiptype: Jaguar Name: PLV Snuffles Reason: About the same reason as with the wolf. But I never fly it, so I haven't lost any yet.
Shiptype: Tempest Name: PLV Stupidity III Reason: I lost my first tempest to being so stupid as to jump into a full fledged pirate camp despite being told that it was there. Hence the name.
Shiptype: Vagabond Name: PLV Ignorance III Reason: Whenever I lose a Vagabond its due to my own ignorance of its limits.
Shiptype: Muninn Name: PLV Ugly Duckling II Reason: It just looks like one.
Shiptype: Mastodon Name: Slowpoke, Fatteh II Reason: Slowpoke is the one with all the local hull expanders and is as slow as a snail. Fatteh II is in memory of my last Mammoth who died because of excessive alcohol intake at the helm and one belt rat.
Shiptype: Prowler Name: PLV Fast Coward Reason: The name says all I think. The ship for running past all those pirates.
Shiptype: Sabre Name: PLV Turbo Thrasher Reason: My goodness is this ship fast! Delicate, yes, but so very fast!
Shiptype: Claw Name: PLV Suicide Reason: My tackler. I have yet to die in it for some reason. Mainly because the people don't target me. Or they warp off when I screw it all up again and fail to scramble them in time.

Ship Type: Wolf Ship Name: Skoll Reasoning: In Norse mythology, Skoll is the wolf that devours the Sun during Ragnarok.
Ship Type: Jaguar Ship Name: Gullinkambi Reasoning: I liked the name. Mythology: "In Norse mythology, Gullinkambi ("golden comb") was a rooster who lived in Valhalla, where he woke up the Einherjar every morning. His crowing will also signify the beginning of Ragnarok." Quoth Wikipedia
Ship Type: Claw Ship Name: Hati Reasoning: I liked the name, and by now I have a theme going. And I think something that ends up catching something to signal doom fits pretty well with an intercepter. Mythology: In Norse mythology, Hati was a wolf that chased Mani, the moon, through the sky every night. Lunar eclipses were caused by his coming close to succeeding. His brother, Skoll, chases after Sol, the sun. They both are supposedly children/brothers of Fenrir. Children would bang pots together and make a lot of noise to try and scare him away from the moon. And then the sparks from the banging pots would fly through the sky. People on Earth would call them falling stars. It is said that at the Time of Ragnarok, Hati will catch the moon and break it in his jaws." Quoth Wikipedia

Ship Type: Exequror Ship Name: Kirby Reasoning: 4 mining lasers, cargo expanders, and 2 large shield expanders. Tough and good at sucking up dirt.

Cause I take it places where battleship drivers don't dare tread. And come out alive. The Destruction of your ship is usually preceeded by the thought,"I think I will try somthing a little different this time...." |

Ship Type: Cormorant Ship Name: Snowball in Hell Reasoning: In my first week of playing, I got caught in my first gate camp with two prirates. As I desperately tried to push my cormorant toward the gate I realized I wasn't going to make it... So I loaded up the snowball launcher and let those pesky pirates have it! I managed 2 good hits before my ship tore apart.
Well the pirates thought it was so funny that they actually paid me to replace my ship and let me come back and get my stuff. Hence the new destroyer's name...

Ship Name: Witchhunter Ship Type: Rifter Reasoning: When I first got a Rifter I was facinated by the sleek looks and raw speed. With an afterburner, the experience only increased. Moving quickly and hitting hard, this was the name that came to my mind.

Edited by: Nero Scuro on 03/02/2006 22:51:10 Vexor - Viscera Crow - Incitatus Badger - Silicus Dominix - Moray Abyss
EDIT - oooh, we get to do reasons too?
Viscera - It sounds cool. Incitatus - The name of the stead of Nero (means Speed Demon - fitting). Silicus - Means rock in latin. I wanted something that sounded slow and sluggish. Moray Abyss - Doesn't mean anything AFAIK. It was the name of a boss from Ecco the Dolphin for the Megadrive (although I had the mega-CD version - woo for updated music!) and it always stuck as just sounding kick-ass. ___

Edited by: Leet Al on 04/02/2006 00:00:29 Ship Type: Crusader Ship Name: I Hate Tom Cruise Reasoning: See above
Ship Type: Zealot Ship Name: Lord Zedd Reasoning: From Wiki,
Quote: The character was the first American-made villain for the Power Rangers series of shows that had no origins in the Japanese Sentai shows. He was such a frightening character when first introduced that parents actually complained that he was "too evil" for the show, resulting in Zedd being toned down immensely, such as his marriage to Rita.
I thought it was cute, personally.
Ship Type: Sacrilege. Ship Name: Duct Tape Forever. Reasoning: Canadian. Anything else seemed unacceptable.
Ship Type: Phantasm. Ship Name: Sporktacular. Reasoning: It kind of looks like a spoon. With prongs... fork prongs. And it's spectacular. Thus, Sporktacular. Hurrah.
Ship Type: Malediction Ship Name: Asteroid (Awesome) Reasoning: Scanner camouflage?
