HMS Nike

HMS Nike was a name on the Royal Manticoran Navy's List of Honor; since the first vessel of the name was the legendary last command of Edward Saganami, there was always a Nike in service. By tradition, as well, only the Navy's newest and most powerful battlecruisers are considered fit to bear the name, and at least one ship found herself recommissioned under a new name when her class was declared obsolete in order to bestow it upon the lead ship of a more modern class.
Nike's crest was a winged goddess of victory hurling thunderbolts from a raised hand. The ships' motto was "The Tradtion Lives!". (, )
