What new ships? Theres not been any new ships announced since last year.
I think the most recent ship announced was the mustang? Unless your talking about the unlocked stretch goal ones like the drake information runner, the rsi minning platform etc.
I don't think we are likely to see much from the unlocked ones for several months. As for the scout and specials like the banu merchantman I also think they will be late this year. Currently I think they will be working more on the single seater ships and damage states for DFM as well as squadron 42 cap ships etc.
I wouldn't be surprised if during the summer we saw some nice new cinematic of cap ships slugging it out.

The new jump point magazine has a ton of artwork and preview renderings of probably everything inside the Idris, theres about 50 of the 80 pages from basic model to what im guessing is close to final, finishing with shots of fully textured renders of 2 interiors. Its unsurprisingly very impressive looking.

The javlin is the destroyer they previewed a few weeks back isn't it?
That is pretty cool
Poodmund what ships you got at the moment? Tempted to try to put together a little org ship roster, although I'm sure I read it was in development for the RSI site org system
Yeah I think there is a fleet tab been added to the organisation chart, just probably not for a bit.
Yeah Chris Roberts said the idris had increased in size and capacity as its used in some of the single player squadron 42 missions and needed more rooms. He was saying he thinks the owners will be impressed with the new bits.
I wish I had one, but ill get it in game eventually.
Im not a subscriber so don't get jump point unfortunately
Just a Constellation, can't afford to outlay any cash on further ships. XDThat is pretty cool

Jump point is usually uploaded elsewhere, it's against T&Cs to do so which is why I don't but you can usually find most versions somewhere on the net or via torrent.
Annoys me that it's not available to everyone, subscribers put money in to benefit everyone and we get little cosmetic bonuses so I don't' see why a PDF should be considered subscriber only!
There are regular discussions about whether some of the stuff we get should be given to non-subs too but it's typically status quo. Anyone who asks for more for subs is usually shot down spectacularly though, nice to know most subbers are fair minded tbh.
