I've done about 18 games by now (complete and incomplete ones), and I've unlocked the federation, the engi (both layouts), crystal (both layouts) and zoltan ships.

I've been trying to get the slug ship for a while now but its hard to adjust your course to find the slug home nebulas, and the event itself seems rather rare.

4112
What sort of error does it give you? Does it complain about a missing file or something?

4113
B layout for the crystal ship is the best boarding thing ever. The crystal's special ability + the cloaking just makes boarding earlier a whole lot easier, thankfuly, since its basicaly the only thing you can do since you start without drones or weapons :P

4114
Hey, its not my fault tritons keep falling on my bone glaives. :P
We're saving them from their unfashionable shirtless ways. Everyone shall wear glorious fur coats and look fabulous.

I just unlocked the crystal ship :o , it works like a buffed up kestrel that doesn't need to rely on missiles basicaly, pretty powerful ship all around. Doesnt come with drones, stealth or anything fancy, just an all around good ship, and the crystal vengeance thing only makes it better, specialy against people using burst lasers :P

4116
Where are you guys finding these crystal guys?  I've won 4 times and never even seen one.

Follow distress signals, you'll eventualy come across a derelict ship and gain the option to either grab a weapon or a stasis pod. Grab the pod and take it to the engi (or maybe zoltan) systems so they can revive it.

The ion blast II borders on OP really. If you can somehow get 2 of those and power them along with anti ship drones or another weapon, you can pretty much shut down any ship in the game while carefuly taking their subsystems out. It charges waaaaay faster then any other ion weapon. Its only disvantage is that it costs 3 power to keep it running.

Reviving the topic for the sake of possible knews.

never been able to unlock the kestrel's achievements.

all systems and subsystems? too expensive.
all crew members? shops don't have them/not enough random events
recover from 1 HP? always die.

Its easy enough if you play, well, on easy and instead of destroying ships, you can just keep asploding their life support. They'll eventualy asphyxiate, leaving you with the intact ship, which is worth quite a bit more scrap then just destroying it.

I think the stealth ship was made for avoiding fights and dangerous encounters, so the player would have a different approach to the game, but the biggest problem with that is that currently the only way to beat the game involves fighting a mega flagship armed to the teeth. If there were another ways to complete the game rather then just exploding everything, then the stealth ship would probably be the best ship to achieve that goal with.

Like, instead of fighting the rebel fleet head on, you could try to bypass its defenses and eventualy arrive at the rebel home system and plant bombs at the HQ. It'd be neat to have different ways to beat the game.

4121
The 2nd engi layout is rather meh. The equipment is nice but you start with a lone engi for your crew. The drones don't come close to making up for the lack of other crewmen. I guess I'm going to use the federation cruiser.

4122
I just beat the boss for the first time with the engi brickship. 2 ion cannons + hull asploding laser and two drones combined with awesome shields, engines and full reactor power were enough. Managed to unlock the 2nd layout, but no new ships :C

4123
Ugh, found the crystaline stasis pod, except the zoltan homeworlds aren't even on the same path it was. Sometimes the game just decides to screw you over.

Also, I can't seem to figure out how to face off with the boss at the last map. Everytime I try to get closer i get attacked by other rebel ships, then fall back for repairs but it ends up reaching the base even though it was at least one star away from it.

4124
I just started playing this and I gotta say its far more fun then it seemed to be on all the youtube lets plays. I got the engi ship but I've been exploding halfway to the final system because I'm still figuring out how to properly build it and RANDOM MANTIS RAIDS raep engis. Haven't unlocked any other ship yet though.
Trying to find out how to unlock the zoltan one.

Actualy skinning trolls alive then just letting them regenerate it is a pretty cool concept, altough DF trolls don't really have the legendary regeneration, AFAIK.
