Clarification on patch notes please.

I saw this, today, and it got me thinking...

The Store button will now always be available, allowing account-wide reclaim of Event Ships.

Does this mean, my other toons will have access to say the 2nd anniversary ships, that my main unlocked a long time ago, or is it that I can just dismiss the ship and reclaim it on the toons that have it.

Thanks guys.​​

    The intention of the event ships as per the change this past summer is that once one character on an account has unlocked the ship, all other characters on the account can claim it for free, regardless of when they were created or if they participated in the corresponding event. However, the Event Store wasn't available to characters who hadn't done the initial participation mission to open the store, so if you were to create a new character while an event wasn't going on then there was no way to access the store. This patch changes it so the store is always available, thus allowing you to claim the ship without needing an event. You still need to have earned the ship at least once, but if you have then all characters on the account gain access to it.

    I think its only the ships that you earned through reputation. AKA Winter event ships, summer event ships, DSD and Kobali.
    Which is still pretty nice!​​

    I'm glad to see they finally put this change in so it won't matter what time of the year it is when you make a new captain.

    Right on men, still a good change all the same. I just didn't want to buy the odyssey pack yet, but I wanted to see if my engineer could make the old one fly. I like to kind of challenge myself in that way. Shoot, with power creep, I tend to find most of my T5-u and T-6 ships too easy at times.

    Thanks.​​

    So are these ships going to be available on the shipyard when you go to requisite them or they show up somewhere else for you to claim them?
