Another point, if you go around naming ships 'Stalin' then you are going to attract certain comments. Now your short of names, ships like 'Advanced Carnage' and using computer virus names 'Mabutu' shows that. But still don't complain about people jumping to conclusions about the acronynm SS when their transport ship might be escorted by a ship called 'Reich'

Just wait the SS acronym is soon to change and is actually tied directly to this chapter but more then that I ain't gonna say

As far as ship names goes ain't nothing wrong with Stalin or Lenin because it's an alternate history for all you know Stalin was a saint, and besides that It does sort of tell the "mentality" of the Empire doesn't it.

Oh and Mabutu is an African name so there's nothing wrong with that

And look at the overall names of my ships it's pretty much stuck to names involving carnage and war since the get go that and names like Iconoclast, Devestator The Advanced Carnage is actually a very old ship when I still had a LOOOONG list I just liked the idea of an advanced warship with the name "Advanced Carnage" hehehe pretty much a "Hey look your gonna die by the best".

I'll be blunt Icarans aren't "bad guys" but they can often get pretty damn close I know and that's pretty much the fact of human nature.

[nitpick] No Mobutu is an name. Mabutu is what an illiterate computer virus writer used as the couldn't spell Mobutu.

Stalin "Man of Iron" or was it Steel? I can't be arsed to check the interweb but it was one of the two. In any case Superman was worryingly close to passing off.

If not for my illiterateness, I would once again start writing. But lets face it, Lucas is a king of the written dialog compared to me. Looking forward to more chapters Starhawk.

I don't think anyone's going to complain about SD when it's clearly short for Super Dreadnought. At least, I haven't heard anyone complaining about David Weber's use of it in the Honor Harringtion series.

Okay Mobutu I misspelled it I've only seen it spelled with an A so don't compare me to an illiterate jerk who likes making viruses

As far as Stalin goes it's much shorter then Iosif Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili which was his real name so yeah I pick Stalin over that any day hehe.

Heh AT is that a jab at the Star Wars dialogue?

If I was being fair I wouldn't have added the nitpick tags. CTML Contrived Text Markup Language. Like HTML, but better!
