But why stick to namby-pamby names? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif I've got a whole names file full of 'extreme' names for ships. Beside the obvious like 'Blitzkrieg' or 'Heavy Hitter' I've got lots of ambiguous Catch-22 type names for the general 'I hate this' flavor of war that no 'realistic' empire would ever use. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif (Edited to fix the word 'sh-t' in several of these triggering automatic censorship...)

we dutchies where great shipbuilders around that time and we made sure not to let em sink in the harbour as far as I know http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif
the ship ur reffering to (I think) is the Vasa: or an English ship a few years earlier... but the idea is the same:
The Vasa sank within one nautical mile of the start of her maiden voyage in 1628 before she even left the Stockholm archipelago There was a sudden squall, her gun ports were still open and when she listed heavily to port, the gun ports sank below water level and water gushed in. bye bye man-O-war http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

On a related subject, I used to have a gameboy sub game where you could name your Sub. My was the US Sub Standard.
Worst name for a ship:
HMS. Invincible, as this name alone will result in the immediate and, often, pathetically stupid destruction of any ship.
- SS. Can't Hit Me
- USS. Essess
- Sinker
- Flounder
- Derelict
- Dereliction of Duty
- SS. Oceanus (a Passenger liner that went down in 1991 and the crew all bailed and left the passengers behind. Note the captain was given a new command a few weeks laters of a Ferry).
- Any ramming ship named "dodge" or "jumper"
- Any tanker or highly-flammable ship named after a living, ruling emperor.

I was just wondering you had some use for the USS, but since you don't I guess one of the other stated meanings will do.
As far as being upset about your "dishing it out" I am not. You can "dish it out" all you want. I think your post there, and here says enough about the subject that I have nothing to be upset about. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

I just used USS because compared to SS, it makes a military distinction.
Now let's see what captain can say "DESTROY THE Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia" before the Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia can target, load, raise shields, and fire several salvos.

Death Star I had a weak spot. II did not - the only reason it was vulnerable to small fighters was that it was still under construction, and enough of the superstructure wasn't in place yet that there were a few paths big enough for fighters to actually navigate to the center and get direct, point-blank shots at the reactor core from inside all of its defenses. If the second Death Star had been completed, raw firepower would have been the only way to take it down, and I doubt the Rebellion could have amassed enough of it.
