Agent-ESv1 Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 (edited) (Meant this for the off-topic discussion) Hey guys, I am trying to put together a name for my organization to switch to from its current name Ill Effect. I am very attracted to Roman and Latin based ideas. It is a team based around a game called Counter-Strike: Source a tactical first person shooter. I have tried to come up with some names and words I was trying to use already so you can get an idea of what I am trying to get at, I just don't know if some words go well with each other sometime. proelium clamor : Battle Cry Liberatrix : Liberators (If I can figure out something awesome to be the liberators of that might work ) Gloria Exercitus - 'Glory of the Army' (saw this on your forums and that looked cool.) procinctu : prepared or ready for battle. vis vires : (pl.) force, power, strength, might, influence. sodalicium -i n. [an association]; esp. [a secret society]; in gen. , [comradeship]. Any suggestions I would be thankful for.

Primus Pilus Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 I'm partial to the following quote from Vegetius... "qui desiderat pacem praeparet bellum" He who desires peace, prepare for war. The Praeparet Bellum (prepare for war) part would probably be most effective for what you're looking for, if at all. It's a start anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
