In Eve-Online I finally purcahsed for 6,000,000 ISK a Thorax class cruiser *the* best Cruiser for the Gellente Federation and I whimsically named it the Prometheus, but my feind Bloodstrike says "you DO know what happened to that ship right?" And I just kinda nodded.
But then after I got it I was transfering stuff with it and in a .4 system a Battleship locked on fired on me *claims I shot him first I onyl shot him when he warp scambled me* I fired back and then was quickly destroyed.
I didnt even have a chance ot insure it *sniff* I didnt even get a good shakedown cruise.
My Corp was kind enough to spot me another 6 mil isk and I got a new one. I named it the Odyssey.

*flips the bird* Maybe my next ship but I learned my esson, Bloodstrike took mean pleasure in saying "I told it was a bad idea to name it the Prometheus".

Aw, you guys beat me to all the good Stargate joke references.
****SG1 SPOILER****
All told though, either Odyssey or Daedelus would've been the best choices, at least they're still around.

In the British Navy there is a terrible stigma attached to giving ships names related to reptiles, specifically snakes.
I had abook that listed all the ships that with snake names that have sunk and its pretty long.
Sorry about your ship
If I had a huge battle cruiser I would not name it the Titan, or the Titanic, but I would try out "The Titanicest" Posts: 14316 | Registered: Jul 2005

I just started playing on the 7-day free trial, and am planning to buy my first ship tonight (a cheap frigate, nothing special, planning on switching to an industrial ship later). There's more to life than combat, you know Posts: 170 | Registered: Mar 2001

I was so convinced that this was a Stargete thread when I read the title, and I was thinking, "It's been destroyed what three times now?"

only once you cant rebuilt a ship from debris 1 Prometheus class and 1 Daedalus class have for certainly been destroyed.

yes, but there was the whole destroyed, un destroyed, possibly destroyed, partially destroyed, crashed, etc. Tis' a very durable ship.
