' Wrote:I got some names for Rheinland. The current names (used by the fighters) are Phantom, Banshee, Valkyrie, and Wraith. I don't know the bomber name though...it might be Fafnir. Anyway, for capital ship names, I was thinking Ghost, Spectre, Shadow, Spirit, or Shade. Yes I got these from Halo, but they do fit with the Rheinland names of spiritual or spectral beings.

Liberty should have names about freedom, democracy, and protectors. I was thinking Independence, Arbiter, and Sentinel.

Bretonia should have names about knights like the Partisan (although that is being used by the Coalition), Chevalier, or Cadet.

Kusari should have names about mythical beasts. A list of them can be found here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_speci...e_and_mythology
Just press Ctrl+F and then type in "Japanese" and you'll find a bunch of Japanese mythical beasts.

Gallia, if they don't have names already, should just use names of cats like they do on the fighters (one of the fighters is called the Lynx). Examples would be the Tiger, Lion, Cheetah, or Jaguar.


It should be noted when naming capital ships that in Vanilla, Fighters and Freighters carried different naming Schemes. For example:
Patriot, Defender, Rhino
Cavalier, Crusader, Clydesdale
Drake, Dragon, Drone
Banshee, Valkyrie, Humpback

Also exhibited in Discovery is that Cap Ship names don't share the name scheme of their fighters, either. This is a trend that should be kept in mind when naming unnamed capital ships.
