Citoyen 224 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 (edited) May be finally give a name to the ship "3rd rate".  She is of the Arrogant class or Courageux class but several ships have distinguished themselves like the Vanguard (Nelson), Bellerophon, etc. 🙂 Edited February 20 by Citoyen 🇲🇶 add Courageux class 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
erelkivtuadrater 476 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 (edited) it should be ship class and get a random name from their database of the ships in that same class IMO else we would get all the random offensive names that the devs would have to go through and remove or approve before the ship is built, but its a good idea Edited February 19 by erelkivtuadrater Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Svennik 24 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 If you are talking about the in-game ship now called 3rd Rate, i think HMS Dictator would be a nice namesake. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Dictator_(1783) 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't be negative. 🙂 After renaming the ship in a less generic name, her characteristics could be adapted more carefully, taking into account the real ship chosen. So, don't just propose a ship name, but when possible add which strong and weak characteristics should be raised up. I would think in Vanguard, with increased turn rate. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I also propose a minor speed buff. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It sure would avoid a lot of confusion for new players. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
