Could the Gorn HDX Firebreaker be given the hull number 314? (Since none of the HDXs have numbers assigned to them.)

This number is in the standard range for Heavy Destroyers and the series that it is in (312-317) is not used anywhere in the Gorn registry.

Thanks.

Could the Gorn battlecruiser #157, the Tricericon, be made one of the two Gorn fast battlecruisers? No names were listed in Module R6, which also stated that both of the ships were converted to standard battlecruisers before the Gorns joined the General War.

I have only found it (as a BC) in two Historical Scenarios:

SH170 (in Module F1) which takes place in Y172
SH187 (in Module M) which takes place in Y180

which gives it some time to be built in Y168, and converted prior to the Gorn entry in Y174.

Thanks.

Name Proposal for Federation FRD (Fleet Repair Dock).

William S. Cramp. (owner operator of Cramp shipbuilding co, Philadelphia, PA.)

http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/facility/cramp.htm

This shipyard built many ships between 1870 and WW2, not all for the USA. Some international customers included Russia, and a number of south american nations, and others.

Name proposal for Federation starship, either an NCL or a CA:

Named for the Turkish (ex-German) battlecruiser.

I'd like to make another request for a friend whose dad served on the U.S.S. San Diego, an Atlanta Class anti-aircraft cruiser. They're both dealing with the loss of a family member and this is my small way of doing something for them.

The San Diego feels like a perfect fit for one of the unassigned NACs.

So the request is for an NAC named USS San Diego.

the HMS INVESTIGATOR located in the Bay of MERCY
LOST IN 1850 she was involed in the search for the NW passage.

suggested the feds name a GSC for her

By Loren Knight (Loren) on Wednesday, July 25, 2012 - 11:02 am: Edit

Suggest a ship named for Dr. Sally Ride, the first woman in space, an astrophysisist and teacher. Died of cancer a few days ago at age 61.

Besides, there's got to be a great story behind "The Sally".
Callaway suggested a GSC, but maybe a CVL. Another thought is some OCL or OCA or perhaps a hospital ship or... oh I forget what they are called but the Red Cross ships whatever they're called.

By Alan Trevor (Thyrm) on Wednesday, July 25, 2012 - 12:11 pm: Edit

My apologies if this is excessively nit-picky, but Sally Ride was the first American woman in space. The first woman in space was the Soviet cosmonaut, Valentina Vladimirovna Tereshkova. I think Tereshkova is still alive, though I'm not positive.

By John Sickels (Johnsickels) on Wednesday, July 25, 2012 - 02:08 pm: Edit

There is a United Earth probe ship called Valentina Tereshkova on the ship registry (or there should be, it is mentioned in PD: Federation). This is an exploration ship under control of the Earth government. I suggest Ride would have a ship of the same type named after her.

Federation Ship Name Suggestion

USS SALAMIS
This was a decisive naval battle between Greek Allies and the Persian Empire under Xerxes, circa September 480 BCE, in the strait between the island of Salamis and the Greek mainland near Athens.
It resulted in a Greek victory which prevented a Persian invasion of Greece by sea.
-Suggested ship use: CB command cruiser (named for decisive battles)
-Alternatively: CX cruiser (named for revolutionary battles) or CSV scout carrier (named for "island battles").
