So what do you think would be good names for these new ships?

Don't they already have names on the test server?

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

They currently have dummy placeholder names.

Oh, I know the Penguin has to be the Caldari one. Smile

So is Slayer Gallente then? Flayer has to be Minmatar since that's kind of a synonym of Thrasher.
Then again Slayer is a thrash metal band... so who knows.
Penguin is obviously Caldari.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

+1 for the Honor Harrington reference.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I'll play.

Minmatar dessie is crude, designed to be fast and hit from range. They're running out of bladed weapon names... Dart is the best I've got. If they go the weather route, perhaps something like Gale.

Can't think of any bird names badass enough for the Caldari boat. Shrike suggestion works well, IMO.

Sticking with the titans, gods, and heroes of the Gallente, I'd go with Poine as it flows a bit easier than Praxidike. For a sea-faring theme go with Triton.

Can't really be bothered with Amarr.

Imagine being able to mount 1 capital laser to a desi...and the Shrike LAC will be born!

More serius suggestions:

Gallente: Hoplite
Caldari: Swordfish
Minmatar: Gale or Gust
Amarr: Devourer
