Talk:Aigaion-class heavy command cruiser/@comment-69.160.159.129-20161013112442

I haven't seen any other pages mention this (and I'd rather not make an account just for one edit), but Aigaion (also known as Briareos), Kottos, and Gyges are from Greek mythology. They were the three Hekatonchires, giants who had 50 heads and 100 hands. They aided the Greek Gods in their war against the Titans.

Supposition: The massive number of launch ports and gun turrets on the cruisers are likely the reason they were named for the "Hundred-Handed Giants".
