Thanks, gents. This is actually a pretty awesome and concise boss guide. Even though I've beaten the game a few times, I keep referring back to it.

IIRC, I needed another Zoltan to be a generator, so the puny human got booted.

Welp, nevermind. Did it, switched between bombs/missiles and lasers as necessary (with some hot boarding party action thrown in for good measure). It was fun.

Here's where I am now. At Sector 8 with Burst Laser II and III useable and Pegasus, Small Bomb, Heavy Laser, and Hull Missile Available. Should I swap any of my weapons? Any suggested strategies.

The first two phases weren't that bad (thanks for isolating those weapons rooms guys, made it super easy for my boarding crew), but the third, holy crap. I quickly melted under a swarm of drones and a hail of missiles? What am I supposed to do? I st...

Yeah I discovered the 1 scrap thing last night. That's a real kick in the junk. Not getting any scrap from pointless fights seems to be the primary motivation to not get caught by the rebel fleet.

I assume the rebels catching up to you means the scripted events are overwritten. Other than guaranteeing a fight at every beacon, does this change anything?

Played on my windows computer for a bit, then installed on my linux computer. Settings did not transfer. Is there something I need to do enable cloud sync? Edit: I am having some issues with Steam updating on Linux. It could be related to that. The steam updater downloads and says I don't have enoug...
