    My other plan was to name them after the robots on Robot Wars but having HMS Wheely Big Cheese just seems even more silly.
    That Robot Wars plan is pure genius! Who wouldn't be terrified of a fleet with Sir Killalot or Matilda in it? I know I would .

    What about the most famous of them all, The Sleeper Service?

    I thought Sleeper Service wasn't as good as Quietly Confident. Neither are great but you have to have Sleeper Service in somehow.

    There's so many on the wikipedia page I don''t think I'll ever be short on names.

    Now THAT is phenomenal news. What a layer of depth and immersion that's going to add.

    I'm not made of money! I'm saving my pennies for a new PC for this very game.

    My ships will be boring, except for the terror of the seas. Strike for the South.
