Actually....

I turned 5 years old 2 months ago.

My forum posts always default to this alt but when it doesn't I post with the main now and then.

Its not very often that I dont know a ship by name... but I am getting rusty from not playing a lot lately.

Ive realized that I need to make a point to clean out the cobwebs and know if I found an easy way that it would be usefull for the newer people I come across on a semi regular basis.

1: Right click on ship.
2: Click on "Show info"
3: Realize what a Loki is.
4: Then either GTFO or BOOM, your choice Pirate

You guys can laugh if you want but I've made index cards of ships categorized by function, by typical tanks, and corp :: doctrines.


I think I'm a lot slower at picking up patterns than most people here and it helps me figure out who is flying things for what reason without clicking 10-20 times.

I could use a set of Space Ship Flash Cards. It's a good alternative to dragging out an idiot smartphone every time you have some downtime. The only problem is, CCP rebalances ship stats at a pretty fast clip. You'd need an automated phone home data updater software tool to go with your card printing and cutting hardware tool.

Nereus, Kryos, and Epithal still throw me for a loop. Sometimes my first thought when I see them on grid/dscan is "ooooh, Alliance Tournament ship". But no, its just an Iteron. For some reason I don't have the same brain fart with the Miasmos. Those are still relatively new names though. I know what every other ship name is without thinking about it. Though I do still sometimes shoot the absolute worst damage type towards T2 Amarr ships. Oops.

Not a crazy idea. Militaries around the world have been doing this for at least 100 years.
