jacobdouds Posted May 13, 2002 Posted May 13, 2002 Master Edric, don't kill me, but I must know.Could everyone please vote on what sounds like a better name for the Corrino Mega Cannon for the Kwasitz Hederach MoD.Keep in mind that House Corrino is Broken and a new Heir has emerged, but they are not imperial again yet.Vote on:1-) Heir's Cannon2-) Imperator Cannon3-) Succesor Cannon?? ?? ??Your time starts now.
Edric O Posted May 14, 2002 Posted May 14, 2002 Well, areyouforit, it's a lot like the other Mega Cannons. It replaces the Corrino Palace. It's their superweapon.Okay Jacob, I will bow to the will of the fans. ;DBut names in foreign languages are always cool! At least I think so...Imperator = Title given to the supreme commander of Roman armies. Since the battle of Actium, the title of Imperator (as well as Princeps, Augustus and a bunch of others) has been given only to Roman emperors. In fact, the English word "Emperor" comes from the latin "Imperator".Compare that with the meager "heir"! :) :) :)
nemafakei Posted May 14, 2002 Posted May 14, 2002 You've got the emperor stuff right.We could decide on the name of the heir, and name the cannon after him.
jacobdouds Posted May 14, 2002 Author Posted May 14, 2002 Traitor you are Frodo.Okay Edric, what should the 'Corrino Heir' be called?
Edric O Posted May 15, 2002 Posted May 15, 2002 No, let's wait for a few more votes before we make our final decision. Changing in-game unit names (the tooltips) is easy enough...As for the Corrino heir...How about Farad'n?
Ghosty_Square Posted May 15, 2002 Posted May 15, 2002 Jacob, it's Kwisatz Haderach not Kwasitz HederechDune fans feel insulted by mistakes such as this.
DjCiD Posted May 15, 2002 Posted May 15, 2002 if its the heir's cannon what if you named the heir the name of one of pauls twins (from the second book i think) i havent read them, am just assuming on what i have read aboot them. but i like both ideas for imperator cannon and (insert heirs name here) cannon.
jacobdouds Posted May 15, 2002 Author Posted May 15, 2002 This is for house Corrino, not House Atreides. So it won't be one of Pauls children. Nor will it be Farad'n, as this name has been used already. Look at Duke Achillius and Baron Copec/Gunseng.Has to be someone new.Voltirus, the Hederach part was a typo, and the Kwisatz was my fault.
DjCiD Posted May 15, 2002 Posted May 15, 2002 yeah i knew atreides was gone i just ment we could still a name in stead of making one up doesnt paul or his heir inheirit/take his place on the lion throne... isnt the lion throne another name for house corrino?like i said before i havent read books so plz dont flame for me asking dumb questions ;D
Edric O Posted May 16, 2002 Posted May 16, 2002 Djcid... it's a *bit* more complicated than that. ;DI guess you're right, Jacob. But I'm out of ideas. Any suggestions?We could always re-arrange the letters and make up something like these:Faran'dDaraf'nN'darafNa'draf
nemafakei Posted May 16, 2002 Posted May 16, 2002 Why not use BH and KJA's heir by distaff, Tyros Reffa Corrino?
jacobdouds Posted May 16, 2002 Author Posted May 16, 2002 hehe, THE GOB CANNON" That would workNo1)Tyros Reffa?2)Na'draf?Votes have changed people.Your time begins now.
DjCiD Posted May 16, 2002 Posted May 16, 2002 is there a way to start an actual poll instead of posting and tallying up? and if its goning to be the (insert heirs name here) cannon are we going to vote on an heir name? so 2 polls at the least : - vote for cannon name - vote for heirs name if we go with heir cannon.if no polls can be made then my vote is for the imperator one or the (insert heirs name here)
jacobdouds Posted May 18, 2002 Author Posted May 18, 2002 Destinys Cannon? Sounds to fake, cheesey you know. We need something that sounds good.
jacobdouds Posted May 18, 2002 Author Posted May 18, 2002 Cannon 42.Could be something like that.It has to sound origanal.Maybe that superweapon built into the new HitchHikers Guide to the Galaxy in the last book.
