The sale is broken down into four batches of 890 hulls to give all time zones a chance to get it, if wanted. The price on this very 'exclusive'... $600 (crazy, I know).

1st - Just after 7PM PDT (sold out in < 5 minutes)
2nd - At midnight PDT
3rd - At 5AM PDT
4th - 10AM PDT

Origin 890 Jump

Melted my Avenger, Freelancer DUR, my M50, and a Hornet F7C for this. It's much more heavily armed than I expected, and between this and my Phoenix, I have the VIP transport gig covered.

It is a pretty cool ship to say the least. I really like how it looks but I wont be buying one.

Here is a size reference.

I won't buy any ship (beyond my initial Connie pledge) but I sure look forward to seeing and flying these in-game. I wonder how hard it will be to work you way up to some of these.

They all sold out which was a surprise to me. A lot of people seemed to melt thing to get them though which I figured would be the case for the ones bought anyways.

Cool ship though. Probably going to be a sitting duck in the PU though. Most of these large ships, even with guns, wont be able to maneuver to defend them selves alone.

Big ones are targets, small ones are fodder... as long as we travel in a large flight group, I'm hoping my Aurora will make it out alright.

I melted some of my stuff and got the salvage ship so both large and small ships are FOOD!

Wonder what the Gladiator with all those torps can do to that thing (with a wingman of course lol).

Torpedoes would be reasonably slow I would think, so hopefully the point defense systems would swat them down
