Team,

As you know, we will be getting a new class of ship next month.

It will be a Prometheus class ship (which I'm very excited about if you can't tell).

But before we launch the new ship we need to come up with a new ship motto.

I would like to suggest 'Always forward' as a possibility.

It is short and speaks to the longevity of the SIMM.

What do you think?

Do you have any other ideas to add as a possible motto?

Let's hear them please.

How about "Simul Invictum", which translates into "Together, Unconquerable"?

I second Wu's suggestion.

I especially like it with the Prometheus class considering it's MVAM capability - could mean that the 3 sections of the ship working separate but together are unconquerable as well as the ship being unconquerable when it is combined (together) as one.

How about " Ever Onward ".  ? ( I don't know what that is in Latin )

We're in Starfleet here. Weird is part of the job description.

So, actually, the ship can cause more damage when it is separated into it's 3 parts.

Does the motto still work then?

But I like that we have some new options to consider.

Just a note though, I don't speak Latin so let's please only use English mottos ;-)

I think it still works well for both. And neither can I, lol, Google Translate is my friend XD

Steven,

Good ideas.

Is there one of these you like better than the other two?

Since there have been other suggestions, I'll just reiterate that I like Wu's suggestion. :)

My unsolicited 2 cents: I bloody love this one. It's terribly clever.

Ok I will be putting up a poll later for Disco crew to vote on.

Before I create the poll do we have any other 2nds for any of the previous nominations?
