Short answer: no!Is there any way to still buy this?
Longer answer: "Too slow, chicken marengo! Too slow for this cat."
I had originally thought that it would not only give us access to a different starter ship but would also give us that ship if we died. Michael clarified a little while ago that this was not the case: you get that ship and if you die you can't start with it again, unless of course you buy it back via insurance.It was a perk for the kickstarter backers and while it does seem a bit unfair. It won't have a big effect on the game long term, just means the kickstarters will be able to cut out a few hours of trading at the start of the game.

Adding an option to buy it now would really be too much like Pay To Win.
Hi, I missed the KickStarter option to buy a different starting position and ship. Is there any way to still buy this? I’ve been playing/testing since PB and really enjoying it.
