Man O War is growing on me more and more. If this is a Baronies ship design then Man O War would fit nicely. Its got that royal pretentious sound to it.

Personally, I like "Heron" or "Man 'o War," and the former only because I suggested it.

If our good friend the dev does decide to change the name to one discussed here, it'll probably be "Man 'o War," unless he absolutely despises the name for some reason.

It fits the ship, it fits the gag, and the people like it.

interestingly enough, if i recall correctly, man 'o war was a possible name discussed at one point, cause i do know i briefly used some reference of man 'o wars while doing early concept art.

with that said, god knows what it'll be called, i dont necessarily get the final say, but i'll be sure to hint names if i get the opportunity. i like alot of these so far. if anything i can see you guys naming your "manta rays" after what you suggest here :P   i know i'll probably end up naming what ever this ship is called "the manta ray" in honor of the code name for a bit assuming it changes (hell i should do this with all my ships just to be silly :P )

coelacanth would be a cool name. Its the name of a deep sea fish whose buoyancy is not via air but rather oil - a strange method of flotation, same as this new concept ship!

That's the bastard with the bone face and eyes and can chomp through things like the jaws of life, right?
