FINALLY.
After 50 failed attempts and ~30 hours of playing... got through this blasted thing with the Red Tail.
What's so wonderful is that this game only lasts 1-2 hours but it took me 30 hours of playing to beat it.
You win at game design, FTL. You really do. Release similar work, please, so I can give you large burlap sacks full of money.
My painful lesson that I eventually learned somewhere around 30 games in:
Teleporter is positively *not* optional.
My first win (normal)

Re: My first win (normal)
Yeah, congratulations! 
This is the sign of a game I like: easy to get into, hard to master.

Congratulations! The first victory in this game is so much of a rush. But believe me when I say that it's not over yet. There is so much more to do that this game will keep going for a while.

Re: My first win (normal)
It makes your first win easy, but it's definitely optional. I've beat normal many times with no teleporter. I'd argue that having some way to quickly deal with the flagship's missile launcher is not optional, but even then you could get lucky.mgagnon wrote:My painful lesson that I eventually learned somewhere around 30 games in:
