Mobula is the one ship you have to paint.
I disagree 100%. All that painting, theming and decaling makes it less fancy than it should be.
Mobula:
FancyI hope this name raises no question, I mean seriously, even the fence is made as fancy as it could be on a
battle airship battle boatplane!
Sometines the name gets added to in order to fit the build. Examples of this name modification are Fancy Mining (all mines), Fancy Fishing Rod (all harpoons) and Fancy Lightbulb (all flares).
Squid:
Squishy Cactus or
Meta CactusFormerly known as Squishy or Meta Squish, but Squishy is such a common name, even for non-Squids, so I had to find something new. Because of some weird joke that was creating hilarity while flying the Squid it got changed to Cactus, and earned itself some green dye.
The "Meta" gets added to the name when it is a long range Squid, most commonly Mercury or Hades front, because these are just as OP as they can be.
Goldfish:
FriendfishFriendship is an overused joke and because "fish" fit so well into the name, it was named Friendfish instead. It is so friendly, it gets rid of all the sorrow and pain, in your life, that is known as "Life", by simply killing you.
Junker:
Whale on the looseThe Junker is totally the most whale-like ship in the game and it is neither tamed nor contained, obviously.
Galleon:
DeicideThe Killing of a God. As fun and silly as double Hwacha and double Heavy Carronade may seem, one can't deny it gets rid of a ship rather easily. As any Galleon, it can kill any ship in mere seconds once gun arcs are applied, even gods, the legendary and immortal vets, might not survive it.
No, I have not listened to the band that coincidentally has the same name and looking at their specialized genre I wouldn't do it, ever, on my own free will at least.
Pyramidion:
ChariotFormerly it was one of many Pokes until it advanced to the next level and became a singularity. I am not even joking about that one, since the few times I fly Pyramidion it is with a ship build that gets either rarely or never used by anybody else in the game.
Also Pyramidions are the perfect ship to resemble Chariots I find. The horses that easily run you over and crush you with their speed and mass, the archers and warriors riding it able to shoot and slice anything that comes into vision and range. Obviously rather vulnerable from behind and once the engines/horses are down, it is a bit helpless. As the Pyramidion only has side guns on the left and nothing on the right it might be a little bit inaccurate, but I am not a Chariot expert either, soo...
And as one would expect the best is saved for last, the most tallest, most slowest, "most" firepower and some engines:
Spire:
The great VGSThe first ship I started playing with and with it three of my friends that were transported from another game, which is currently seen as dead. Only one of them stayed with me and is, by me seen, the best main engineer in the game.
The name of this ship is of course a reference to the game, "Tribes: Ascend", which had a bunch of easily spamable voice commands. One of these voice commands was created by pressing "VGTG": "I am the greatest!". As one would like it, if the voice commands were used in quick succession it would cut off the end of the current command and continue with the next one. With that "I am the greatest" turned into "I am the great X", whatever came after that. Most people ended most commands with the "VGS" command, which everybody that played the game for even the smallest amount of time should recognize. I will not tell anybody what it is unless they really bug me or I feel like telling a little story, filled with emotion and sadness and - Spoiler - no happy ending!
The very moment we joined Guns of Icarus: Online,
The great VGS was born and lives on forever and ever as a memory, as a legend, as the only full explosive Hwacha/Artemis/Mortar/bottom side Mine Launcher Spire that could wreck all the shit in the novice matches.
