Question: do we have some kind of a prefix or something to designate MOBIUS ships?
Could be fun!

If you mean Order of Mobius, rather than general Mobius Groups, it seems the consensus is 'OMS' = Order of Mobius Ship'

Currently I have only named my main ship, my trusty corba, Named Chicken Hawk- 23. I tend to take on targets much bigger than me with it, and named it after the tiny and (foolishly) brave character from loony toons that always pesters Foghorn Leghorn, the chicken hawk.

I have a series of ships all named after places and characters from either Alice in Wonderland or Through the Looking Glass.

Vulture - Looking Glass
Type-7 - Wonderland
Diamondback-Ex - Rabbit Hole
Dolphin - Walrus
Federal Assault Ship - Cheshire Cat (Still building this ship. Waaay more expensive to A-rate than I anticipated)

Corvette (combat) - Khan's Revenge
Cutter (trader) - Fortune's Grace
Asp (explorer/general errands) - Odysseus
Conda (for multicrew only) - The Flying Funbox
Dolphin (no use whatsoever) - Flipper

Haven't named the Clipper yet.

Cheers!
