Really? Ghost sounds like halloween time for trick-o-treating, about the 6-8 year old's range.


I think Specter or Phantom would be much better then plain jane ghost.

as Stalker is out... has to be Spotter as my vote.. could RP sniper teams with that too i guess...


Assassin is good.. but like someone else said, its a little too 'BH'.


Ghost... hmm.. sounds little too CIA.. what's next Spook?

Perhaps it does, if you have no knowledge of anything relating to our military forces and covert ops. If that's the case, and your thinking about it on a child's level, Ghost should please you as much as Assassin.

Yes, assassin does sound good, but for a BH title... I mean it's EXACTLY what they do, not what a Rifleman does. Do we take specialized missions to kill a target and then get paid for it? The answer is: No



The best name I've heard so far is Lurker... And for those that compare it to a pedophile, hello! but Stalker has been in the game forever which is the word of choice for a pedophile/peeping tom.


Also Ambusher is a very good suggestion, as both mean someone waiting in concealment


Some other words I've come across:

Derivatives of Ghost


  • Banshee

  • Phantom

  • Specter

  • Wraith

Concealer


Defender


Equalizer


Hawk-Eye (like Dead-Eye)


Heavy Ordnance Expert


Journeyman (Dunno just popped into my head)


Predator


Silencer


Trooper (sounds good but to close to Soldier I think)


Waylayer

How about "Exterminator"? I still like "Cleaner" and "Hitman" though. The Professional anyone?

So I guess my title idea was thrown out then huh? Oh well I thought it was both funny and original.

Everytime I hear Ghost I think of Halo lol.


Some conceal synonyms I think may be okay:


Lurker
Sneaker

I like the predator idea, it can be read into many different ways for both PvE and PvP. Here's another one though.


Plausible Deniability


I like the assassin a lot though, just think of the roleplaying you can do with that title. I mean sniper works just as well to an extent but this gives you the whole nine.

Must say that "assassin" is a bad choice. It isn't indicative of what we do nor of the branch. It doesn't fit.


"Ghost" is a bit better but not by much.


Kind of surprised that noone has yet mentioned the obvious. "Gillie" or "Ghillie".


The word is derived from the Scottish game wardens that worked against poachers. They developed the specialized suits we acll Gillie suits used by snipers to conceal themselves from the poachers.


The literal translation though is a fishing and hunting guide.


But shooting from concealment and without being seen (ConcealShot) fits the "Gillie" title.
