Standalone ship

A standalone ship is one not included in a game package. To access one such ship in game one has to have access to a game package containing a copy of Star Citizen base game. The purpose of standalone ships is to be able to buy another ship while not having to pay for a whole other copy of the game. Owning several copies of the base game allows a player access to another game character which can also be used as an NPC crewmember.
