That name is only valid if it is crewed by scarcely dressed Orion women.
This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.
Though i won't get that ship i think "USS Blub" would be an appropriate name

Titanic- hit and iceberg and sank
Lusitania- torpedoed by a U-boat and sank
Britannic- hit a mine and sank
So I will call mine Mauritania after a liner during the heyday of luxury liners during the early 20th century

How about the Andrea Doria? At least that didn't sink.
Oh...wait...never mind.
That burned at sea

Am I the only guy who will be probably naming his Errant Venture?

Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though. JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

then for my Corvettes:
Gusty Winds

Please reconsider ARC. Please make it optional, at the least. PLEASE.
It seems the vast majority of your most active players (forum regulars) hate the idea... and while that's a small subset of the playerbase, I think it's an important constituency.
THE PLAYERS DO NOT WANT THIS.
Brief history is that it was a steam barge with a capacity of only 376. When the Civil War ended Union soldiers were released from Confederate prisons and many of them forced their way on to the SS Sultana by threatening the crew. They wanted to go home as soon as possible. It it is estimated that in total there were 2,400 passengers on board; more than 6x it's legal capacity.
During one of the SS Sultana's stop overs repairs were done on leaking boilers. Obviously it was shoddy work because on April 27, 1865 three out of four boilers exploded. An estimated 1,800 people were killed which is more than the number of people who died on the Titanic (1,517).
I'll certainly fly the luxury cruiser with pride if I get it. I'll probable stick with my tradition of digging up rough translations of names/themes in various Native/Indigenous/Indian communities and nations languages (still Latinized though) to name my ships.
There may be no direct translation for "The Love Boat" or "Disco Fever" though.
If I pick up another BO for a build for the luxury cruiser the first last name for consideration of the BO will be Stubing, and they will helm the ship.

Isn't that the name of the true way ship you board in Skirmish?

That's the Axon, IIRC.

+1 it's not one of the hero ships so what gives?
Then why are you naming it after the chopped up American version?
The ship is called the Yamato.
I know. But I've seen a lot of ships called "Yamato" in game over the years. Just trying to be different.:)
And if you want to be technical, then I want a playable Bolar Federation.

Boarding Party would likely get a buff when used against you.
I already named my corvette the Monitor.
Edit:
Wait... then how did I name mine the Monitor?
Support 90 degree arc limitation on BFaW! Save our ships from looking like flying disco balls of dumb!
Wow. Good one. Haven't heard that name in a long time. A long time...:D

so did you take that 3 hour tour to Risa?
