I like the work you're doing creating new WarShip articles here and fleshing out the Smoke Jaguar ''touman''. I just wanted to mention that a couple of mistakes have crept in when you've been adding ships to the main WarShip articles; the articles reflect who the last known owner of a WarShip was. In the case of the ''Osis' Pride'' as an example, during the Wars of Reaving the ''Osis' Pride'' was encountered by the Ice Hellions and ended up an Ice Hellion possession. The Ice Hellion survivors then later merged into the Goliath Scorpions, leaving the Osis' Pride as a Goliath Scorpion WarShip - hence it's listing on the ''Potemkin'' page under the Goliath Scorpions. There were a huge number of changes to ship ownership in the Jihad and the Wars of Reaving, so it's worth checking the individual ship articles to see who the last listed owner is rather than adding a ship to the list twice.<br>

Keep up the good work - I'm looking forward to learning more about some of the Smoke Jaguar ships. I'm not convinced that the ''Simas Osis'' isn't a mistake on the author's part - the writer has the ''Korat'', ''Azov'' and ''Ripper'' escape the Inner Sphere with Delta Galaxy, has the ''Azov'' and ''Ripper'' being given battle orders, and then the ''Simas Osis'' suddenly pops up in the description of the battle having not been mentioned before. I'm wondering if it was an earlier name for one of the ships that got swapped in by mistake...

ETA: Oh, I need to move your Ripper article from Ripper (Individual WarShip) to Ripper (Vincent) because there's another WarShip out there with the name Ripper - a destroyer that fought in the battle that destroyed the Bolson Shipyards in the 1st Succession War - and as we know the class for the Smoke Jaguar WarShip, it's easier to move that one from (Vessel) to (Vincent).

: Thank you. I am inclined to agree regarding the Simas Osis, however it is a named vessel and as such (I think) deserves a reference and an attempt to explain the "mistake".
