  New ship for Kaph
December 3, 2006 2:33:36 PM    View the profile of Willtconq 
A new ship has been put into production in the ICS. One that Demonic and I designed over the summer. Look for it among the new items. I will be buying this ship, and make it a mobile base for Kaph Squadron. With the new ship, comes a couple of competitions.

1. The naming competition for the class of the ship. ie: Victory class Destroyer, Executor Class Super Destroyer.

2. The competition for the actual name of the ship. ie: Devastator, Atrus, Daoshim.

The class name competition is open to everyone in the navy.
The ship name compettion is open only to members of Kaph.
The prize for the name chosen for either competition is 250k IC.
Please post your suggestions on the competition thread that I'll be starting soon, and please follow this format:

State which competition you're entering in,
name(s) that you're entering.

There will be only 1 winner, but there is no limit to how many names one can put in. Happy brainstorming.

EDIT: ADDITIONAL RULES

*DO NOT Edit any posts* All editted posts will be deleted.

If the same name are submitted by two different people, and it is chosen, whoever had the name first will be the winner.

The deadline for the competition is Dec 31, or the begining of Chp 9, which ever comes first.

I have a name for each category, and no they are not names that would insult things that have names.

For the ship class, Gladiator Class Star Destory.

For the ship's name, the Galatea (for some reason I liked this name the first time I saw it.)

I like the old system. I think it should be an Imperial Starship, maybe, class A or I, meaning one? As for the name, well it's the Kaph, and or Kaph Squadron or a more simpler simile would be the Katerine or Katherine. I have more ideas.But, this is just a quest for names and classes. I have better.

I'm not entering anything, just giving input on those names for fun here...Er, Celestial Class Star Destroyer seems very creative to me, though it would be the kind to describe a sort of more royal class ship rather than one that the Vast Empire Navy would use for one of its squadrons.

I think that by looking at the type of ship and really going with some deep meanings of what Kaph Squadron is really all about, you guys can come up with an incredible name for this ship and its class.

Nice job guys, more input for Will would be greatly appreciated.

The ship is too small and too lightly armed to be a Star Destroyer.  The following terms could apply to any of the following (though I just chose one for each example):

Cruiser
Light Cruiser
Light Dreadnought
Frigate
Heavy Frigate
Pocket Cruiser
Pocket Dreadnought
Heavy Escort Frigate

Types:
Firestorm Class Cruiser
Hellfire Cruiser
Swarm Class Cruiser
Devastator Class Escort Cruiser
Imperial Pocket Dreadnought
Imperial Pocket Cruiser
Blitz Class Frigate
Saber Class Frigate

My preference is: Hellfire Class Frigate

"The way of war is a way of deception. When able, feign inability; when deploying troops, appear not to be. When near, appear far; when far, appear near. Lure with bait; strike with chaos. If the enemy is full, be prepared. If strong, avoid him. If he is angry, disconcert him. If he is weak, stir him to pride. If he is relaxed, harry him; if his men are harmonious, split them. Attack where he is unprepared; appear where you are unexpected. This is victory in warfare; it cannot be divulged in advance. Victory belongs to the side that scores most in the temple calculations before battle. Most spells victory; least spells defeat; none, surer defeat. I see it in this way, and the outcome is apparent." -- Sun Tzu

Perhaps I should end the competition this weekend, since there are no more entries coming in. So get your entries in before this weekend if you still want a shot at those 250k.

Those of you that didn't vote, I assume you're not going to. Thus, we have our winners.

The winning ship class name is Hellfire. by Arturus.

The winning ship name is Tiamut. by Tnepres.

Congratulations to those two.
