Mirones Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 In Potbs i had ship names just like Dirty Cat, Wet Cat, Angry Cat etc. Wet Cat was most rarely sunking gank ship Guess i will stick with that tradition, if I buy this game somewhen. a friend of mine used his Wenden in Portbattles and managed to get an DR of 24 or 26 on the boardside. in the end we named it things like "Graf Spee" because it was an Panzerschiff in these battles or "Großer Kurfürst" i miss these times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince of Whales Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I am a big fan of the "I" boats. When the Royal Navy was naming their first battlecruisers prior to WWI, they came up with quite a long list. It started with impressive-sounding names like "Invincible" and "Indefatigable", but further down the list I found such comic entries as "Inconceivable", "Invisible", "Inflatable", "Inconsiderable", Inflammable, and Incircumcisable". I once named a tramp steamer the SS Silverfish. An even smaller smuggler was called Willie Maykett. For those of you who know the song, there's always the Good Ship Venus. My German destroyer Z-25 was "Der Zee-monster". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outsurgent Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 My Snow is called Jon, and he knows nothing. Sorry had to! Or H.M.S Sanguine, because I'm optimistic in the game, or: H.M.S Sanguinary, because it's pretty much what the game is about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueEagleGER Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I think my ships will be named after creatures and Heros from Greek/Roman mythology. Imagine the a fast frigate named "Gryphon". Blue-EagleGER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashman Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Currently HMS Royal George, however I will forever hold dear to me the weatherly and sturdy 38 gun HMS Leonidas; there is no equal to cruise the open sea for enemy ships to sink, burn, or take!

Domestikos Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I'll name my ships with greek islands names such as Ydra, Spetsai, Psara etc. I'll surely name a frigate if i get one with the name Karteria. And the SOL by the name Anastasia or Constantinople. Small fast ships will probably take one of the 2... Salaminia or Parallos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
