Yessss.  Moar flavor flav and bling!  I man not be much of a designer, but I love adding bling to my ships for that little extra bit of flair. Hopefully ship logo flags were a part of this.

Question: Does the new style set mean the DLC kit includes a completed set for a faction? That alone will make up my mind. Or does it only include the pieces to make one?

Thanks

If a person with DLC makes ships with new ship parts, can these ships be distributed to persons without the DLC? Will these ships be invalid/illegal designs?

From the sound and looks of it, its a new Faction Style. (Cant verify not got the DLC, yet)

I do not think so, I was using designs off the workshop that specified the Snathi DLC without having it(I now have it though) and they showed up fine.

Yes, this is the excuse I need to revisit my current custom faction.

I have the founders pack yet this DLC is not showing up as owned on my Steam account. Is there just a delay or an issue on my end?

Try restarting Steam.

From an interrupted, but fully entertaining, initial session:

Nice stuff, I have already found a couple of parts just perfect for one of my animated designs.  Now, I have to figure out how to actually make the idea work, but I already know I will like the way it will look. The controls on some of the animation functions feel much more fluid to handle.  Also, I noticed some fantastic looking new hulls in the collection. 

And of course, everything looks even better in Timonium plating. 

Thanks to the crew for more goodies and great work!

Does this mean custom ship styles can be assigned (finally)?

The new ship style (Raider) is EFFING AWESOME!! Love the new parts, styles and colors! I restarted a new game just to switch to the new style!

The new ships are gorgeous. It's like some sort of cross between Star Trek (scouts and surveyors?) and vertical shooters of old and I love it.

It's a bit pricey for a DLC only containing a ship style, parts and the name setting feature though.
