Summary0023101: New Extragalactic War unit names seem wrong
DescriptionFirstly, the release is "Thunderchild", the unit is "Thunderbird". I'm guessing this is an error? "Thunderchild" sounds way cooler.
display_name="Extragalactic Thunderbird"

Secondly, unlike all of the other "named after mythical beasts" extragalactic lines, these two new ships are missing "War" in the name:
display_name="Extragalactic War Maugrim"
display_name="Extragalactic War Poltergeist"
display_name="Extragalactic War Wendigo"

And thirdly, the first attached image shows a jackalope. It is not menacing. For a word with a similar sound, how about "Jabberwock" (depicted in the second image)?

I like the name Jackalope myself.

I don't see any bugs here, but puffin would have to speak to that since he named the units, and he's on indefinite hiatus.
