Can we all agree that the generic torpedo carrier variant should be called a u-boat?

Ja! Das Unterseeboot!

I regret that I have no likes left to give.

sold!

Call it what you want. I'll choose to ignore any of the cute internet names people have for ships.

Crapper-lids. I don't care which pilot you have.

All it does is create confusion for new players in an already advanced game with many rules and abilities to grasp. I am teaching several new players the game and I see it first hand.

I still can't find a definitive answer for what a "stress-hog" is.

But I do like the pun on the shape of the Jumpmaster, coupled with it delivering torpedoes. Funny.

"Warthog" is a popular name for a Y-wing with a turret upgrade (originally an Ion Cannon Turret, but now also including Twin Laser Turret) and the BTL-A4 title. "Stresshog" is the Rebel variant that also brings R3-A2 along as the astromech, effectively letting you deal two stress in a single turn.

Sharing fun nicknames with other players creates a sense of inclusion and belonging.

We typically refer to this as "a community."

I was expecting to read some sort of crazy online petition to get FFG to change something about something in the Punishing One kit. It really made me smile to read this instead.

Yes, but you likely also address your wife as Mrs <insert last name>. Some find that cute names bring us all closer together.

That being said, I always detested "bro-bots". Hate it so much, although I've been guilty of using it myself.

*Jaws theme*

edit: sorry for crappy transparency, >9000hrs in mspaint etc

Where's the petition? I refuse to sign it. Why would we glorify a Nazi submarine just because the Jumpmaster is roughly shaped like the letter U? Or is it a C? Or an N?

U-boats were "unterseeboots." A Jumpmaster is not a submarine. The analogy is childlike and silly.

Also, that Dengar is brown and wrapped in paper.

Flushmaster 5000

I have decided the engine sound is something like "ka-WHOOOOOOOSSSSHHHHHhhhhhh"

...why would we glorify a Nazi submarine...

They weren't Nazis in the first war, and naming something isn't "glorifying" it.

Try decaf, it tastes just as good as the real thing.

Unterseeboot is just the German word for submarine. U-boats are in service today!

Also want to add that the term "Warthog" nickname used to describe that Y-Wing setup came because people began comparing the Y-Wing to an A10 Thunderbolt who has the same nickname: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairchild_Republic_A-10_Thunderbolt_II

This is the second time I've encountered a post of yours in which I can't tell if you are being serious, trying to be funny or if it's a bit and you are just trolling. If you are serious I think you need to lighten up and enjoy life more.

So are grown men playing with plastic toy ships and having temper tantrums when they aren't previewed when you want them to be.

I'm calling them U-boats.

You, sir, are a Fizzle.

I do sometimes fear for the lack of education some folks demonstrate.

Type 212 U-boat, folks - here, the U-34, commissioned in 2007:

Pew boat.

If U-boat is shorthand for a specific loadout, like stresshog is, then I will use it. But otherwise, nicknames don't do it for me.
