Post Mortem class ubership! Sure, it's my stolen naming convention, but I like it! The first one could be called the Coroner.

Eh...I don't think so. :P Your naming convention is your own. I only 'borrowed' the Anal class probe. :D

As for the Ragnarok, I'll consider it. Any other suggestions?

Edit: You can be sure I'm going to refit this bad boy after the Shivan war. There is one particular ability that I'd like to add... :P

What about the Absoloution?

Whatever you pick, try and make it original, or atleast avoid the more common names.

A new name? Lets see, hmmmm.

What about Belliskner or Iormungandr class ship?

Just a query... who in the ESUS hasn't stolen the Excalibur from Babylon 5 yet? I think I was the first, so you all should get new pics :D
(j/k mine looks better anyway)

I've used the Excalibur for months now. :P There is no way I'm changing that ship. :P

But no, this isn't the *exact* same Excalibur. I mean, look at the glowing blue thingies. Those weren't there on the original.

Hey cf, sorry to say this, but do you know how much a nanite armor system for an Ubership would cost? in reality, probably more than the ubership. also, if your nanites construct the armor, they have nothing to do it out of in space, and if they are the armor, then its a large waste of money.

im not criticizing you, im jsut wondering how the quicksilver armor actually works, because i cant co0me up with any reason on my own for why its there, apart from the recent nanobot craze.

When the nanite armor is constructed, large amounts of basic resources are sprayed at it. The nanites break down the resources and make them into more nanites. Also, there are small millimeter wide holes in the normal armor that allow resources from the ship's fuel forge to be sent to the nanites for reproduction.

After constructing enough nanites for the armor, they become the armor. Of course, if nanites are damaged, they will use all provided basic resources to make more (hence the 'feeding tubes' cut into the normal armor.)

Resources from space are collected by Worker class resource harvesters or retractable ramscoops.
