I've got ships named Boreas and Khione. I've got an affection towards Greek mythology and ice themes.

My two main ships are named the Cloud Cutter (Goldfish) and the Night Sparrow (Squid).

Cloud Cutter because it cuts through the clouds, and also a cutter being a type of boat.

Night Sparrow after a certain Youkai, plus it sounds good.

My Spire is called the Orochi (a great sea serpent) but I think I have only used it perhaps once.

My Junker is called the Radiant Bee and my Pyramidion is called the Battenburg (my favourite cake). I've not used either. And I forget what I named my galleon.

My ships are all named "The Badger Major".
Because badgers shouldn't fly and neither should I. :D

Currently. . .
Goldfish - Lord Fun Pantsia - it was the first ship i made, i figure i name it something special, was gonna name it "Old Goldfish Dish" at one point for reasons. .

Squid - Sid The Squid -  the dude who killed batman so that makes it awesome!

Junker - Junka Funka - generally my favorite ship to fly, which goes with the theme of "i only fly ships i dont make" (sad face)

Spire - Admire My Spire - you can see a reoccurring theme here

Galleon - Le Herculean Galleon - ditto

Pyra - BWAHAHA - umm ok fine so i gave up on this guy. . .

"The Manta Ray" - the MANTA AWESOME - quick name while testing it out with lenz, will likely change when it gets an official name though, if it does change i'll probably just stick to my guns and call it The Manta Ray anyway

This is the second time in the last week you've hinted at a new ship, but this is way less subtle. I'm not gonna ask too much about it, but can we expect to see it relatively soon?

Oh yeah, and if you make it crazy parkoury for the engineer (think Squid, but 10x more), I will literally build a shrine to you.

scroll down, was revealed earlier in an update today ! my teasing of what i'm working on has come to an end, now i can hint about more specifics :) even though its all in the making and things are bound to change. i figure i open a can of worms up and see what people might name the ship based on that picture alone when its eventually released, along with there other ships names of course .

and i hinted at it a buunnchh, my fav was stating that lenz made nearly half the ships when there was only six ships :P *is the riddler of muse*

Oh my... That... Wow...

Am I seeing a front light gun and four diagonally-facing front light guns? Wow. Can't wait for that beauty

and i hinted at it a buunnchh, my fav was stating that lenz made nearly half the ships when there was only six

Lol, I noticed that. I got pretty confused, and then sort of figured something was coming.

and i'm probably not gonna answer any questions regarding the ship though as i figure it'd throw this topic wildly off course! and all the name and meaning behind it all is really fun to read through! not to mention as i said, early concept doesn't mean it'll all be the same by the end, kinda like how the spire changed a bit from start to finish. but it is a nice glimpse of what could, and hopefully will be the ship you guys will be playing on sooner then later :)  (i'm pretty far along, i take alot of pride working on ships, which is why i couldn't keep myself from teasing a bit here and there!)
