Really looking forward to it!

Javelin + a few Idris' and nice fleet of support fighters are going to make for a helluva laser spray!

And yes - you don't need to pickup a "special" ship at all; just one of the $45 starter packs will get you a basic ship + hangar + Squadron 42 and Star Citizen. The multi-crew thing is what is REALLY going to make this game AWESOME!

If you are considering bumping up to a better ship - and need help; please feel free to IM me.
