Hethwill, the Red Duke Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 So far I have baptised a few but not all, mainly the models I like the most. The Privateer is the "Moriarty" The Brig was deemed worth of bearing the name "Irene" The Cerberus shall be renamed to "Slinger" Trincomalee is obviously the "Khan" Victory is the "Woofistan"
Lyric Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 My Bellona is called HMS Defence - based on a real 74 ship of the Bellona class.
ObiQuiet Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 This is a serious topic, so I won't mention my ideal squadron (Vincible, Defatigable, Trepid, and Surprised) 4
SueMyChin Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 If you can name your own ships ( http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/1629-name-plates-ship-naming/ ) I think I may call mine ' Massive Bereavement'.

One-Eyed Willy Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I'd tell ya but I don't want anybody to steal it or use it to ID me once Open World is.. errr.. opened up.

Reki Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 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.
Rizzo Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 "Caballo Loco", "Polla", "El Camaleón Azul", "Chupacabras", "El Fornica Gabachos" y "Te la casco si me cojes"
Grim DeGrim Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 If naming a ship has meaning (eg, stays in the game as example even after capture), then I might name then. Otherwise: Unnamed Ship I think that was the default is potbs.
Grim DeGrim Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 This thread got me thinking (that's dangerous): http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/4029-in-game-individual-ship-ownership-history/?p=79375#entry79375 Individual Ship History
Galileus Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Once I get into a ship that deserves the name? Dream of Roses. Now everyone take cover! I'm about to explode into sentiments
Grim DeGrim Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) As stated in other post... Gotta go with the overly dramatic: WAR SONG Then I can say corny things to my crew, like "Make 'er sing boys!" Edited February 20, 2015 by Grim DeGrim
William the Drake Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 The flagship of my illustrious endeavors shall always be the Snap Dragon Other ships to come under my possession will be named somewhere along the lines of Grim Fate, Cursed, Predator, Bloodhound, Grim Sight, Black Sun, Illusive, Speed Demon (or just Demon) etc. 1
Chromey Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 eventually Ima call it the Urca De Lima when its about as big as 80 gun galleon
Portsdown Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 If anyone is at a loss for a name... http://www.ageofnelson.org/MichaelPhillips/
PrezesOi Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 If owned ships will be managed in a manner similar to that of PotBS, I will go the same method as in there - Yacht? "Yacht". Constitution? "Consti" ... etc. Not much role-playing in this, I know. Just ergonomics and comfort.
Thomas Blackwell Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Depends on what ship I decide to make my own. Right now it's a toss-up between the Lynx and the Privateer. Lynx: Fierce Privateer: Savage If I end up liking the Rattlesnake I may use it instead. Rattlesnake: Relentless
