Pioneer Preview
Silas Koerner built the Mustang to finance his real dream — the Pioneer, which has a unique approach to colonization. Keep your eye out for a special email on Thursday, if you’re interested in learning more about the Pioneer.

The Pioneer is being offered for the first time as a limited concept sale. This means that the ship design meets our specifications, but it is not yet ready to display in your Hangar or to fight in Star Citizen. The sale includes Lifetime Insurance on the ship hull and a pair of decorative items for your Hangar. A future patch will add a Pioneer poster and then once the in-game model is finished you will also be given an in-game Pioneer mini ship model! In the future, the ship price will increase and the offer will not include Lifetime Insurance or these extras.

If you are interested in adding one to your fleet, a limited number of War Bond Pioneer hulls (plus outpost construction materials and UEE Claim licenses) are available for purchase during this pre-sale. An additional allotment of hulls, including credit versions, will launch during the full sale on Friday, October 27. The total number of Pioneers available is being limited to adhere with the current design for player-run outposts. Pioneers not sold during the pre-sale will be included in the War Bond allotment for the full sale. Pioneers will be available in the pledge store until Monday, November 6, 2017 (or while supplies last.) Once the full presentation is complete, you can also view a detailed schematic of the Pioneer in the Holo Viewer in the Tech Overview of the ship page, and be sure to enjoy the special CitizenCon brochure featuring the Pioneer.

As with every Concept Sale, we will also be doing a Q&A post. We are also streaming a live presentation with the Pioneer’s designers during CitizenCon 2947, which will be available for review after the event. If you have additional questions, there will be a forum thread on Spectrum to take your questions. Make sure to vote for the questions you most want to see answered and we will be posting the dev’s responses next week. Look for the Comm-Link Schedule next week to find out when that post will go up.

Watch the CitizenCon panel about the Pioneer (Friday, October 27, 19:30 Frankfurt time)

DISCLAIMER

Remember: we are offering this pledge ship to help fund Star Citizen’s development. The funding generated by sales such as these are what allow us to include deeper features in the Star Citizen world. Concept ships will be available for in-game credits in the final universe, and they are not required to start the game.

Additionally, please note that the Pioneer will be entering the ship pipeline now and may be released after other concept ships have been completed. All decorative ‘flair’ items will also be available to acquire in the finished game world. The goal is to make additional ships available that give players a different experience rather than any particular advantage.

Said I wasn't gonna get one and that I had no interest in base building; then I bought one...Unfortunately, huge industrial PvE ships are my weakness.

That landed/expanded picture of it looks absolutely stunning; it's up there with the Reclaimer/Orion.

I'm hoping we can get NPC missions to build stuff at some point, and that it'll double up as a decent cargo ship sometimes too (obsessed with cargo ships).

One thing you may not have noticed is the inclusion of an outpost base on that price too.

Yeah, apparently they said in chat that the Pioneer itself isn't overly expensive as a ship itself, but the construction materials are.

EDIT: Another tidbit someone saw on chat was that the landing pad (on the side) is supposed to be 40m in length. That should give us an overall estimate on the total size of the ship. :)
