WC RPG, what title sounds good to you?

[Chicken]

I've finished the final batch of titles, so vote for the ones you like and add comments if you want. It runs for two weeks and after the totals are tallied then I'll choose the proper title.

All except the first sound like titles of an Honor Harrington book.

Honor Harrington?

I never read any of his books.

*Ahem* "Her" books.

Honor Harrington is a Sci-Fi character created by the Baen author "David Weber". If you have any of the Wing Commander books, you'll probably notice advertisements at the back for titles such as "On Basilisk Station". The series is quite old at this point, yet still going strong.

FWIW, I highly recommend going to the Baen Free Library and downloading the first few books of the series. Despite some of the later books getting a bit repetitive, they are actually quite good.

Here's the free library:

Here's the titles (in order) to look for in the library:

On Basilisk Station
The Honor of the Queen


Edit: P.S. The titles I'm reminded of are "Echos of Honor" and "Shadows of Saganami"

It was kind of hard to pick a title without knowing the plotline. I picked Echoes because it sounded the most original.

These are all "something OF somthing" titles - that's kind of outdated at the moment (except for the Harry Potter titles and Worlds of Warcraft - but I guess that's the cause of it).

Pick a one-word title. That's also a better way to create a unique sense of what you do, when other game/media titels are mostly abbreviated - like HHGTG, WoW, WCCCG, and so on. If somebody talks about Otherland, it just sounds different.

I think you should pick a time period and a plot before picking a title.

 

[Penta2]

I agree.

Personally, Echoes has a nice ring to it. And yes, these names have to deal with the plotline. I'm not trying to give too much away, but lets say the game straddles more than 1 era.
