Name the Ship Game


RMS Olympic

Recommended Posts

When i get back from the work ill do it again...

 

You mean: posting including the name?

 

From own experience I can tell: sometimes names are hidden in the clouds, in the waves, in the filename, of just plainly written on the sides of the ship.... :)

Hello Crackers (a.k.a. Anthony),

 

This one's easy. The picture contains the name of the ship.

It's the Russian Battleship Borodino.

 

But I thought it was Pav's turn?

 

Take care,

 

Anja

Ok, so now we have to include the name of the ship – but doesn't that take some of the fun away?

However, Anja, I have to say I don't see it, where the name? :huh:

Crackers, I take it the naval battle was Tsoushima in 1905, against the Japanese?

Wayne, thank you for answering Kester's question.

 

No Kester, we don't include the name. That's taking all the fun out of the game.

Crackers was just fooling around a bit.

 

We just wait for Pav to find a good one for us to search, without including the name.

 

Take care,

 

Anja

Pavol stands for Paul, Pablo, Paolo etc. Please do not try to pronounce it, just call me Pav...

That one is interesting - it looks familiar for some reason, but not sure why.  I would hold off on hints for a while and see what folks come up with!

it remind me a british troopship of the first world war, but refining the research can be a very big problem...

in my opinion can be a white star line ship, like the RMS ADRIATIC , which served as a troop ship, too.

I think you are spot on unless you consider the name on the ship, which is not legible :-(, however it's only 6 characters. I can make out Liverpool below though.

 

So which of the other big four is it then? Baltic, Celtic or Cedric?

 

Can't find the exact picture though!

Well, theoretically you can make three or four posts naming a ship in each one...so you solve the problem! :D

Nope, none of your guesses is right. She was not a troop ship in any wars, altough she was somehow involved with troops in ww1.

Hope its not too much help.

Of for now, i have to go to work. Today im going to do deliveries in londons rush hour...

Kester, you are correct.

 

Montani semper liberi. Happy modeling to all and every one of you.

  Crackers    :pirate41::cheers:

I am? I didn't know I'd said anything. :huh:

 

(Re. clicking on the picture. I think I would have realised that, if my cursor had passed over it, which it didn't.)

No it doesn't seem to  have been. If Wikipedia is correct it was actually a passenger liner that was torpedoed by a submarine in 1916...she had a sister ship the Egypt who looked similar who did work as a hospital ship during the war... I suppose it could be either one of them...they look VERY similar.

She was not torpedoed, she sunk after the collision in bay Biskay and later become very visited for one purpouse. She indeed was hospital ship during ww1. Enough hints, one of you was veeeeery close already.
