    I have multiple ships. I think my constitution class would read "Ad Astra per Aspera" Latin for a rough road leads to the stars. Ironic since it was the motto of Apollo 1 crew.


    I know that i want the Defiant escort when i become captain. I think the USMC motto is best for that ship
    Sic vis pacem para bellum which again is latin for If you want peace prepare for war. I cant think of anything for my KDF ship yet.

    U.S.S. DarkFyre (Miranda class) and DarkFyre A (Connie refit): "We are all but flickers of light, finding our way in the world."

    U.S.S. Valhalla (Akira, this ship was mainly used for PVP and heavy fighting): "Weapons are just the backup for Diplomacy."


    U.S.S. Chicago (Galaxy): "One man can make a difference. Imagine the possibilities of one ship."

    U.S.S. Sentinel (Sovereign): "Standing guard over peace."


    U.S.S. Athena (Defiant retro, not got yet, but I intend to): "Deeds not words."


    The Athena may have a name change yet. I also have not given any to my shuttles and runabouts, since they wouldn't have any plaques.
