[b]-What would you want your character to be named in a serious story?[/b]

<rankname> Jorick. No need to fuck with a first and last name, imo.

[b]-List any names for Starships you would want to use.[/b]

The Littlefinger
The Wall (of text)
The Magnificent Bastard

Okay those are all kind of lame but that's all I could come up with that is somewhat fitting for me.

[b]-If you were in charge of a ship or a fleet in a space battle, what strategies would you use?[/b]

I'd be all about information gathering and adaptability. Learn as much as possible about the enemy before the fight, keep eyes on any potential enemies to learn their own tactics, even keep files on staunch allies just in case. Information wins fights just as often as big guns, and it can even prevent fights that don't need to happen, so that would be my primary weapon.

Strong intelligence gathering would then be backed up by having a large and varied fleet that can adapt to various enemy tactics. Think jack of all trades, master of none. There's something of everything there, so there's less chance of getting hosed by something I wasn't expecting or prepared for. Counter long range bombardment by sending stealth guys in to wreck their artillery, counter zerg rushers by using defensive maneuvers, counter defensive turtlers by smashing them with long range artillery, etc. Sticking to one battle tactic is the best way to get your shit handed to you, since all it'll take for you to get wrecked is going up against someone whose sole tactic is a good counter to yours or someone who knows how to adapt and take advantage of you.

Other than that, I'd fight dirty as fuck. No mercy, kill civilians to demoralize the enemy, agree to discuss peace terms with an enemy and murderize the enemy leaders despite meeting under a peace banner, etc. So long as the enemy dies and I live, no tactic is too dirty for me.

[b]-Do you have any ideas for names of planets?[/b]

Nope. My ship names were bad enough, won't even try here.
