Well, I should stress the way this works is we have goals for each of these patches, but they don't all have to be met to go out. We do hope for the Reliant to be in next patch, but if it takes a little longer or if there's some issue when we put it in and start testing it, it might not. So it's not something we can promise today, but it's something we're working towards.

And with all of our ships, that one is looking really, really good. Elwin's been working hard on it with Daniel, and just from the art side, obviously on the tech design side and the gameplay side, there's a lot of things that go into each one of these ships, as you know, if you've been paying attention to this game at all for the last few years. But exactly as Ben said, we try to overachieve as much as we can, but we do find things when we get moving. So we'll get that thing in there to fly, we'll play with it, we'll see how it feels, and then we'll have to balance it, and then if it doesn't feel right, we're not going to give it to you guys until we feel like you're going to be as happy with it as we are. Or sometimes we go, hey, we could do some extra testing on this, hey, go play with this for us. So yeah, we definitely are trying to get it in the next patch for sure, and it's looking good, but as Ben said, we've got a lot of things that are still dependencies before we feel comfortable with that.
