Mr. Spicy has made a great video showcasing this ship as well the XT version. If you would like to check it out you can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufsB7BxFuPM
Thanks Mr. Spicy!
The Nomad-ST is designed to be a player starter CV requiring no Zascosium or Erestrum and unlocks at player level 10. This ship does include 54 grow plots unlike the my existing Carapace-C2 starter CV. The reason to include them this time was the ease of aquiring plant fiber as wood can be converted to it with Alpha 8. The hull of this ship is built with steel to cut down on building costs. It features a decent sized hangar and farm despite being a small class 2 vessel. The ship does not have anything that would either require Erestrum or Zascosium or player level higher than 10, however room is available to add more items as well as several turrets and a few guns.
New 5/26/18: For those of you looking for a combat armor version of this ship, see the Nomad-XT. Link at bottom of post.

Steam will automatically download the updated version of the game. Once at this version, any alpha 7 saved games will not work. If you wish to go back to alpha 7.x, repeat the steps and opt out of any betas and the older version of the game will return after steam updates empyrion. For more detailed information on these steps go here, scroll about halfway down that page to "Product Betas" and follow those instructions.
