I'm stuck considering whether I should name the equipment that the Foomerians use after the Foomerians... I mean, sometimes its neat to have things like an "Urak mass driver", equipment named after their creators, but when you get to things such as a "Foomerian advanced refraction field", it just gets a bit cumbersome. I'm wondering what other people's thoughts on naming equipment after their creators is? There aren't any other refraction fields or ion pulse cannons in the game, so do they really need to be named after their creators?

I like the racial items, I would make the "Foomerian advanced refraction field" a "Foomerian A.R.F." and put the full name into the description. Otherwise, give it a model name rather than a technical description of what it is. eg "Foomerian Defender MKII"
