How many commanders do you think there will be, in general? And do you think they will differentiate purely by aesthetics, or will each have different (balanced) abilities? So far, we've seen the Progenitor, the Alpha, and the one we haven't heard about yet. Plus the custom ones for the $1000 pledge level. I am wondering if we will get to choose between which we want to use in-game, how many choices there will be, and if they make a difference in game. I would vote YES to all 3. After all, we're not going to have factions, and Uberent stated that we will be defined by our commander. What are your thoughts and/or what have you heard about this?
AFAIK, Alpha is for alpha testers. Custom is for custom ones. One secret commander for what - maybe for single campaign, which is unlikely to happen. Maybe some very custom commander for some very generous baker (notch?). And I suspect that you would be able to choose only between commanders you have access to.
