Now, in-game at the moment I'm only capable of using the Alpha and Delta commanders. I assume this applies to everyone because they're the only commanders I've seen as of yet. I only backed the kickstarter at the $50 level, therefore I did not have alpha access nor did I back a high enough level to receive the delta commander. I'm curious, however, about when these two will be removed as placeholders and I'll be able to play the commanders that I actually did back to receive. Which would those be? I know I get the Progenitor as a beta backer on kickstarter, and I'm fairly certain all early backers get the Theta. Am I missing any or could I be wrong? Also, it appears that when the Delta commander is selected in-game it uses the Progenitor thumbnail. Is this a bug, a placeholder, or do I just have the thumbnails wrong? It'd be great if someone could clarify everything. Thanks.
Commanders you are not eligible for will be removed from your available pool during the later stages of beta (potentially just before release). The reason you have access to them now, is twofold: First, at the moment we are testing. A greater sample size is preferable to a smaller one. Second, there are no other Commanders that have been completed beyond very rough models. The Delta using the Progenitor artwork is very probably a temporary placeholder.
