Give a name to 3rd rate ship

[Citoyen]

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. 🙂

add Courageux class

[erelkivtuadrater]

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

If you are talking about the in-game ship now called 3rd Rate, i think HMS Dictator would be a nice namesake.

let all call it the " dropout "  

and we all know where it stands.

                         Abandoned for no reason.

i dont think its based on that class its a agamemnon sized bellona. but take the HMS Bellona for example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ships_of_the_line_of_the_Royal_Navy

 

Bellona class (Slade)

• Bellona 74 (1760) – broken up 1814
• Dragon 74 (1760) – sold 1784
• Superb 74 (1760) – wrecked 1783
• Kent 74 (1762) – sold 1784
• Defence 74 (1763) – wrecked 1811

Btw i think the ingame 3rd rate is based on the HMS Berwick ( Elizabeth Class )

Who uses the 3rd rate for anything anyway?

It was a rhetorical question.

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.

That would be cool. I also propose a minor speed buff.

Would also be nice if the "Frigate" gets its proper name in cyrillic thats written on the back of it

Indeed. It sure would avoid a lot of confusion for new players.
