It's been mentioned that ships are at a discounted price pre launch and will be more expensive to purchase (with UEC) in game.
Great point! I hadn't seen or thought of that issue. I guess unless you were credit starved for the next big release, then hanging onto it could yield much higher rewards. I like the idea.

Another great point I hadn't considered when I melted my Connie in favor of my Redeemer, though I guess the Redeemer is smaller than the Carrick, so I could convert it to a nicely armed explorer craft, based on the modularity theme being pushed.
Thanks for bringing all of that up K6_Scorpion. I'm just grateful there is a melting capability with no loss of credit. Makes rolling the dice easier on the wallet in the end.
