20 Not so cool ship names

Post by SpaceSquirrel »

(NightPrince inspired me to come up with some of my own names for ships.)


Note: Some the races got together and combined their technologies to come up with new ships.

Ship names
----------
B-lit
B-it
Spl-adi
P-it
Par-it
B-argon
Terr-it
Bor-it
B-adi
B-erran
B-aak
T-aki
Te-lit
T-aak
Pa-di
Yak-on
Yak-anid
Yak-an
X-ak
Go-rgon
G-it

and
The Boronater


B-argon: I hear the B-argon ships are real cheap. It looks just like a piece of junk, but its not. Inside is the lap of luxury. A 1st class TP with all of the best in cuisine. The shabby external appearance merely detracts attention from pirate attacks!

Boronater: Just the sound of the name "Boronater" is enough to scare me.

Par-it: The Par-it has the unique ability to project a holographic image of itself, thereby fooling the enemy into attacking the holographic image and getting away!

Yak-on and Te-lit: The Yak-on and the Te-lit are sister ships, that work in unison. They are luxury TP's. Each seat has built in email, chat, Bluetooth, Blackberry and interstellar satellite communications software.

B-it: What baby Borons fly in.

:lol:
I'd like to pilot a Go-rgon m6!
I feel like I'm diagonally parked in a pararell universe.

There are so many ship types that I'm having trouble remembering them all.

I have come up with my own names that help me identify them as well as differentiate them.

I use a naming scheme like this:

Mercury Rising
Mercury Silver
Lincoln Mercury

Grand Cayman
Green Cayman
Cayman Saw

Toucan play that game
Fruit Loops
Toucan Tango

Hermes Bag
Genital Hermes

It's dumb but it helps me idenify the classes easier in the property screen until I get used to them.

I like your names. I also rename my sectors. Like
Sneezewell, Bluish Snot, etc etc.

Crapgame: Is that by chance the name given to Don Rickles from the movie "Kelly's Heroes"?

Ya Crapgame was the name of Don Rickles character in the movie "Kelly's Heroes". He was hilarious in it.
People sometimes are given names to describe what they do instead of their given names. Crapgame was always involved with money, bets, deals, whatever.
