An apology to all FTL players about Pre-Igniters...

Post by stylesrj »

You know how you're wandering through a sector and wondering why you have 120 Scrap but no Pre-igniter to use it with? Seriously why are Pre-Igniters so hard to find?

Well I would like to apologise for that. In my recent run, it seemed that every sector was selling at least one Weapons Pre-Igniter. You know how people believe that if you roll a dice several times in a row that you can "pre-roll" out all the 1's so that it'll never land on those when it comes to a critical moment in a game?
Yeah my latest run has "rolled out" all chances of a Pre-igniter. So every game in the past, present and future has been ruined by my run and I would like to apologise for that... especially since the ship I was using didn't need one, so I didn't buy any. :(

Can you guys forgive me for this most heinous crime? Has anyone else committed a crime like "Encountered a run where every store had a Shield Bypass and/or Reconstructive Teleporter"?

Torches. Pitchforks. NOW!

Oh crap, can't pre-ignite the torches. CURSE YOU!
When you've been l33t for as long as me, there's only one kind of l33t you could possibly be ...

And by the time the torches have charged, I would have already jumped away.
After all, your ship would make a mighty fine prize!

LOL... Say hello to the Pew-Pew, a dual Vulcan boarder ship with a pre-igniter (yes, I have gotten that ship in-game before, and it was my favorite run. I saved the final loadout as a mod for the Zoltan A, the ship it was built on.
Kestrel A,B,C - Engi A,B,C - Stealth A - Zoltan A,B

Mantis board your teleporter. "They definitely can't just teleport us back onto our ship... these fleshy meatsacks are too dumb..."
