That sounds pretty unfair; upgrading Oxygen to level 3 is the sort of thing the player is supposed to know about ahead of time. (Oxygen level 2 to counter conventional Oxygen hacking is fine, because it can happen to the player on any other ship in the game too.)
Must be a Captain's edition thing. Seems that in the 3rd battle with the flagship, it disables a system with an effector. Just happened again: it completely disabled my level 2 oxygen. This time I had the presence of mind to jump away and try again. Next time, it got my level 2 medbay, so I jumped again. The next time, it got only one level of my weapons, and I held on for the win. Tough.

Re: Your "Fuck you, FTL" Moments
Just recently in Sector 5... I encountered a pirate ship in an asteroid belt with two Artemis missiles and a basic laser. It only had two layers of shield (and so did I... flying my custom Nighthawk Stealth Cruiser) but clearly this ship was designed to say "Your run has been going too well. Here. Have a pair of "Fuck Yous" to end it!"
Because even after I dodged the first two with my cloak, the second set hit me in the shields and the engines just before an asteroid blew them up.
Then I probably made the dumb decision of doing two more battles before swinging around to the store for repairs. The auomated ship there had another "Fuck You" set. 15 second cloak, high evasion and a Burst Laser II and an Artemis Missile. Only 5 hull points left. Should have went to the explored beacon and then to the store... because on the third battle of sector, the RNG gave to me...
Three layers of shield, two burst laser II's, a single burst laser I and my engines reduced to one bar!
I.E, Fuck You Layout #9001. #9000 is when it's 3 Burst laser I's, Mind Control, Nebula, Slug Assault. You know it's going to be a "Fuck You" layout when it's a Slug Assault.
I lose than run though not by the Burst Lasers. They took down my shields only for that Mini beam which I didn't see tear right through me.
Still, I guess I had to be punished for the good run...

Sitting in an asteroid field letting them pelt me until I'm down to 1hp. Last asteroid hits the compartment next to my O2 generator setting it on fire. I decompress the section but the fire spreads to the O2 room. I decompress the O2 room but too late. The fire destroys my O2 generator and takes my last point of hull, destroying my ship.
FML, not FTL.
had a problem like that too, except I couldn't find an astroid belt so I just setteled for an unmanned drone. I got it down to low hp, and was going to shoot its weps once I got to 1 hp and turn on the shields as well at the same time.
Sadly, they started attacking my weapons and disabled my shields with ion cannons when I had about 4 hp left, and I couldn't survive as I couldn't shoot him and I had fires all over. It was more of a death by my imcompenetence, but agh I hated doing that achievment!![i manged to do the achevment and this is how it went i had just finished destroying a ship and saw that i was on one hp so i jumped to the beacon with a store and i had 40 scrap so i repair my ship till i had no scrap but i need 40 more scrap so i sold one of my two burst laser mark II and finish fixing my ship and i jumped to the beacon next to me and i come up against a ship with three shieds and died so it is fml not ftl...]
