Complete list of unique ships

[Doom]

Is there a complete list of unique ships anywhere? I'm talking about hand-crafted ships, not randomly-generated interceptors and the like. I'm not seeing such list on the wiki.

Unique ships I know of are:
* Iron Vulture
* Boundary Herald
* Starborn Phoenix

Also apparently:
* Starborn Runner
* Utopia Speeder
* Golden Vector

Did I miss anything?

A few. There's some pre-order ships & the starter ships.

I wouldn't call the Starborn Phoenix unique - it's just a Starborn Runner with a different skin.

Ah, so they put unique ships into "notable" list, that's why I missed it. Alright, thanks.

By "unqiue" I meant they're not combined from the usual parts, but use unique geometry. Starborn, Herald and Vulture certainly match that. Even though you can disassemble the Vulture. Unsure if this applies to the Vector, though.

No, they put notable ships in the notable list. They aren't 'unique'. That's almost as bad as usage of the word 'literally' or 'ironic'.

To be fair, he clarified what he meant by "unique" by saying Hand-crafted,, though you also have to read into it to understand that he specifically meant hand-crafted by Hello Games, not players using the starship crafting process. Hand-crafted, as in not procedurally generated.

I think it's a fair use of the term "unique". Though on the wiki, some of those ships are not hand-crafted under the notable section, they are just specific seeds for procedurally generated ships. The Radiant pillar is one such example of a ship listed as "notable" which is not actually hand-crafted.

I'll agree to disagree before this turns into 3 pages of pedantic ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ discussing the dictionary... again.

He defined how he was using the term, which is perfectly acceptable.
If you think the term should mean something else, that's 100% your own issue, and is tangential to the discussion.
