    If there is ever a difference in coms between steam and uber store, which one am I set to? (I got the lowest costing one, it was $50 at the time.)

    If you bought the game via the UberStore, then you actually purchased it through Uber Entertainment. However, if you convert it to a Steam key, the game will not show up on your Uber Ent. game keys, but you can still download the launcher and play the game since your account is what lets you play the game, through Steam or the Uber Launcher.

    As for the Comms, you would most likely receive the Comms for the edition that you bought, if it was the $50, not on sale, then all of the Comms up to that level and including that level are the ones you would receive. (E.g. Theta is Early Access Commander; All of the free Commanders, somewhat obviously. However, you would not be given Higher Tier Commanders, such as the Delta or Commanders for earlier access like the Alpha.)

    I bought it on uber. This isn't a concern of coms, more of a concern of curiosity. I see the key but it doesn't state what edition.

    Well, I don't think that it states what edition because that was merely a marketing thing, you don't purchase a computer that's advertised with free games and have it state that it's the version with free games.

    The only information that you can acquire would almost certainly be indirectly. Is your curiosity purely in the Edition of your purchase, or is it a curiosity of what items (Comms, art, etc...) that you will receive?

    [If it is the Comms, somewhere along the line, MKnight made a spreadsheet of all the Comms and who has access to them and what editions have access to which Comms. I'll do my best to look for it if that's your concern, otherwise I'm feeling a tad lazy :p]

    That spreadsheet has quite a few inaccuracies.

    You have the Warfare Edition, entitling you to the Theta Commander.
