On second thought, no. It was a big lardy hulk of a boat. Sorry, ship.

They cant hold back those 25 ships as they where kickstarter goals.

Only thing I know is that mining wont be in the game until gamma starts.

I wonder how mining will work.

Its 24 ships listed there.

Not all of those 24 ships are playable. At least not on release. So there is more than one ship missing as we were promised 25 playable ships on release!

Maybe the lion transport? Man that ship was poorly designed. I mean, who puts a turret on a ship with wings like that :roll:

On second thought, maybe not the lion

I think it actually will be in Beta 2. Catched DB mentioning mining in his talk at EGX.

Its Friday and weekly newsletter time.
I think he will reveal at least 1 more ship for us.

The Adder.

Reason I believe this is because parts of the ship is already added in the game folders :)

BTW, when asked how many ships will be in the final release during the talk he gave at the EGX, Braben counted on his fingers and went "Lakon 6, Lakon 7, Lakon 9...". So my guess is that we'll get the Lakon 7 as soon as beta2.
