So, now linkable in game, is this new ship.

I assume it's not released yet, as there's no info about it on the web and none are on contracts anywhere.

So, firstly - Anyone have a guess what it's going to be for?

And secondly - can we please get a special edition industrial ship that ISN'T an iteron, please?

Fanfest was the red one, and there are thousands of those out there. The japanese promotion was the blue one, and there are hundreds of those out there. This one is new, and there are none yet.

Amastris was the niece of Darius III. She apparently married/was married off to a bunch of bigwigs, had a plethora of children, two of which eventually killed her.

Yeah, it's a feminine Greek name, but that doesn't much narrow down what "Give us money" avenue it'll be injected via :p

Probably a reward for people who podkill their Buddy Invitees.

It is. It also runs on a different patch and expansion schedule, and different patch packages, than TQ.

Why? Iterons are great

I want a Mammoth man....

But the reason for it always being an itty, is because that's the only indy that has a ship per skill level, making a special one, for which you don't need the high skill level, more viable.

judging by the description I'd say it's a reward for newbies who have completed all career agent tutorials.

The Itty 4 that these are based on requires Gal Industrial 4. These require Gal Industrial 1. They obviously have no issue re-writing the skill requirement.

Which was exactly my point, it's the same thing with all the other special Iterons ( the Quafe version also only needs level 1, just like the fanfest one )
