    I know I'm coming here a bit late, but if I said 'Iain M Banks' will I win 5 pounds?

    I'm not made of money! I'm saving my pennies for a new PC for this very game.
    My view is that it is deserable to be both loved and feared; but it is difficult to achieve both and, if one of them has to be lacking, it is much safer to be feared than loved. - Niccolo Machiavelli

    I'm going to try a little bit of roleplaying to be honest.

    While a Monarchy, HMS etc.

    When I get rid of the monarchy, its going to be something like SR Independence etc.. SR standing for Ship of the Republic or something

    Though, I will look forward to the H.M.S's ships being named after characters from Monty Python, such as from Life of Brian: "H.M.S Nobius Maximus"


    Shame you can't designs on the sails. Would put the gimp mask wearing guy for example, in the above post as a symbol of terror and fear.

    I'll probably give at least one ship name that's full of decidedly unflattering references to the nation in question. Probably involving bastard(s).

    I'm not a greedy man. I'll just make do with the fame, respect and veneration from my fellow Orgahs for knowing the answer.
