Desolator Battleship, the Nom Compos Mentis 

Presumably this is Non Compos Mentis.

Namaah (Repulsive)

Naamah surely.

I don't name my tyranid or necron ships, as I doubt they would use names themselves. I had a friend who "named" his necron ships by giving them numbers in binary though.

I think Necron ships have names, or at least crons and nids both would have names as they were given by Imperials.  Like the Tyranid cruiser Aaargh Don't Let it Touch Us.

And it is the Nom Compos Mentis.  It's going to nom nom your sound mind.

True. But I like to stick to the given fleets perspective and not view everything through Imperial eyes.

If I remember right, I happened to have finished reading Eaters of the Dead (Glow Wyrm), watched the original version of Jason and the Argonauts (Kraken), and played Mechwarrior 4 (Cauldron Born).  ;D

I acquired it from a friend and it's painted all sorts of crazy pinks and light pastel colors...so I figured "Pleasure Boat" was the most appropriate name.

Just because it's a Word Bearers fleet doesn't mean other random ships can't join them ;)
