Does anyone have an idea on how we'll call the ships/projects?
I think WSS Daedalus is a nice name for our Flagship.

It depends - how many ships do we have, and how many types?
Macronations usually have different naming systems for different classes of ships, I think we should do the same.
If we have no such thing, I suggest naming after appearance (a Gishabruni and now Renasian ship is called the Shmel (bumblebee in Russian) because it is fat and moves slowly) or after cities in the Empire.

We don't really have much of a choice regarding designs. But it's a good idea.

Could name after cities and places throughout the Empire. WSS Hastings sounds pretty good.

yay, a ship named after the capital of Nolland. The US has ships named after things and people so maybe the: WSS Constitution WSS Arthur Lobão WSS Richard Cunningham WSS Thomas Cassidy WSS James Frisch The Nollandish Naval National Guard has the HMS Velazquez and the HMS Fearless, so if we go after strong words: WSS Valiant WSS Victorious WSS Challenger WSS Glorious WSS Intelligent WSS Astute and of course, we'd need flagships and i have the name idea the WSS Imperial for Arthur's personal flagship hope that helped

Might I suggest that we name the ships after settlements in the Empire (WSS Hastings, WSS Saint's Rest etc), but that we name the launch operations after mythological figures (Operation Daedalus, Operation Thor, Operation Hermes etc).

And that reminds me, our air force and navy don't have set ranks yet...

I like all those Ideas. But I'd save the mythological names for the ships themselves (Strength, pride, and so on) And name operation after people. Historical Figures maybe?
Operation Bismark Operation Abner (After my dad, the pseudo-leader of the Würtige Tribes)
And,
WSS Olympus WSS Apolo
Et cetera

The US's first ships had basic names
USS President (WSS Kaiser) USS Congress (WSS Council) USS Constitution (WSS Constitution) USS United States (WSS Würtige Empire)
i have no ideas for our versions of the USS Cheapsake and the USS Constellation

Yeah, hadn't thought of that. HIMS sounds nice.
