    Um, HT, Pants means something else than what you may be thinking, here in the UK...

    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.

    Someone should get a video up when the game releases showing the Failboat doing a suicide sail right into a fleet of enemy ships. No firing at the enemy, no attempt to do anything but meet demise.

    No it doesn't. It means trousers/leggings/bottoms/pants/other phrases used.

    Or, pantsless referring to being drunk, under the assumption they remove their pants when so.

    Mate, I meant in the UK pants means underwear not the US version which means Trousers.

    If I buy the game, I already have some good ones in mind.
    USS Dutch Bane
    USS Flotsam
    USS Party House
    USS Terminator
    USS Vuk (1st class of course)
    USS Tosa
    USS Melitiros
    USS Phili
    USS Caius
    USS Richyg
    USS Pabst Blue Ribbon
    USS Mud Krabz
    USS Sweet Mama From Kentucky
    USS Cheese Head
    USS Chuck Norris Bane


    For personal reasons those would all be awesome to have.

    If I ever do an AAR, I'm making sure I name my ships after Org members. Just for the hilarity when one of them sinks or bursts into flames.

    It would be even funnier if AI captures your ships with the names of Org members and you'll have to fight against them later! ~

    The biggest baddest ship is always going to be named HMS Plymouth. Not hard to guess where I live from that.
    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

    The HMS Heanor can join the Essex in the use of the chav cannon. It's flag will be burberry, and its symbol a hoody and fake gold chain.

    Eh... my Flagships with whoever I start off with will be dubbed H.M.S/USS/Ect.. Morning Wood

    With troop carrying ships dubbed Mama Bear or The Sea Cow

    All us men suffer in equal parts, it's our lot in life, and no man goes without a broken heart or a lost love. Like holding your dog as he takes his last breath and dies in your arms, it's a rite of passage. Unavoidable. And honestly, I can't imagine life without that depth of feeling.-Bierut
