| Ship names | |
| Posted By: Beckx | Date: 2/7/11 4:15 p.m. |

So I saw a thread over on the bioware forums attacking/defending the names of ships in Mass Effect. (I don't hate or particularly love the ship names in that series; they're pretty simple and generally okay.) A couple of posts surprised me by hating on the ship names in Halo - Pillar of Autumn and Forward Unto Dawn taking the brunt of the hate for being "non-sensical" (maybe that says more about the person writing the post?). I love the ship names in Halo - UNSC and Covenant alike. I only recently heard that "Long Night of Solace" is the name of the Supercarrier on Reach (is that true) - that's just fantastic. Of course, I love the ship names in the Culture series too. Ships named the So Much for Subtlety, the Sense Amid Madness, Wit Amidst Folly, and the Me, I'm Counting. Hell, I'd love to play a game where I could name a huge warship the So Much for Subtlety.
