can we please call the mc30 a squid

By DarkenAvatar, in Star Wars: Armada

I'm so confused about everything related to this thread.

look at it its clearly modeled after a squid, its not a shrimp. who ever came up with that probably hadn't ever held the model. Lets do this people.

I did not know it was supposed to be called the shrimp, I have called it from day one and my local group mostly as well calls it a shrimp as that is what it looks like to me at least. It is not curling up under itself like a shrimp swimming or its head up high when walking, but looks like a squid swimming through the water.

In my area they're affectionately known as space shotguns. It's pretty easy to describe it to a new player with that nickname.

Even with the tentacle drawn in it really does not look like a squid.

I think this might be a good contender for the Squid title.

Squid kill whales. MC30s kill whales. Shrimp do not.

Sidenote, back in Tucson a lot of us called the MC80 "the/a pickle". Hey, at least it's a little more kid friendly if you've got any little ones about.

Also, for what it's worth, 30's will always be shrimps, too late to turn that bus around.

And in case it wasn't answered earlier, Assault Frigate Mk's are sometimes referred to as guppies or space whales. I have also heard them called potatoes...maybe we had a vegetarian bent back in Tucson.

Mc80 la baguette de doom. How do you fight with this piece of hardbread? That's right, you beat them with its sides

weirdly enough, my armada group likes to call the AF the dolphin. I was confused when I first heard them using the term as I thought only the mc30 had that nickname.

Dear ffg, we need a faq please :D

While we're at it... anyone wants to rename the Hammerheads. They totally look like hammerheads, alright... but hey...

Let's call them bipalium...

As a matter of fact... "Squids" so far hasn't been taken yet in this list and therefore is still officially available... kind of...


As is bipalium, btw... ?

False dilemma! Muelmuel has it right:

You guys can bicker about squid vs shrimp all you want. We know the truth. . .

Your all wrong.... it's pronounced 'rebel scum'

It is already happening.

Innocents have realized the errors of the shrimp. They have been converted to the truth.

The MC30 is the squid.

In less than 24 hours of the necromancy, the squid ? side is growing. Truth seekers have been emboldened by our call.

Everytime you now call it or see it a shrimp, the truth will chip away at you. You will look at its form and see it for what it is.

The squid.

Today, I want you all to seek the truth.

Ask a non-Star Wars human what they think.

They’re selection will surprise you, but it doesn’t surprise us.

I asked my lovely wife today what she thought about the Shrimp/Squid debate. After getting passed the obvious “omg that game” look, she answered they way anyone with untainted eyes will.

It is a squid.

(Trust me, my wife is never wrong.)

#squidtruth

You're all being silly.

It's neither.

It's calamari.

Mon Calamari.

TAAASTY!

And this is official how? As in just because one person wrote it does not make it so if it is not an official stance.

In so much that ANY PART OF THIS DISCUSSION will EVER be official, right?
