Crew teleporters are best, theywork wonders against the first version of rebel flagship. Done right you can have all the weapons disabled within a minute.
I got a battle drone or whatever to teleport over to the enemy ship and fuck shit up
I bought one and it failed miserably
I now have two rockmen at max fighting, they're my boarding crew, also disable the enemy's shield then hit them with the glaive beam and it's going down.
I never have enough scrap to buy cool shit, I get fucked up in a fight and I lose heaps of hull, or I have no missiles so I have to end up spending all my money on repairs, or upgrading my ship
Mass effect mod would be pretty cool. Just change the chasing rebels to reapers and the races.
Zoltan = Asari?
Rockmen = Krogan
Mantis = Rachni
Engi = Salarians
Slugs = I don't even know
How to level weapons: Find an auto-assault with two shields, permanently disable its weapons by making a breach in the weapons room and making sure the weapons are at the red, continually shoot at it with weapons that can't breach the shield.

And how would this add to the game?
"insert stargate request here"
Actually. A wraith hiveship would be pretty good. No shields and weak single shot lasers, but a hull that regenerates and has quite a bit of health. The crew gets health from mellee combat and their ranged attack stuns. But they only do 25% damage to systems and doors.

FUCK. MY. LIFE.
Had 5 crew just before the last battle.

In all seriousness though, a Mass Effect mod would be pretty sweet.

Rachni as slugs, turians as mantis.
Rachni because of.. weird communication and sniz. Turians with their militaristic culture.
There's some more lore behind it but I cant be bothered to check.
Most Themed mods would do excellent if we added them onto eachother?
Nah, think about it!! your in the destiny (crewed by borg) fighting off Geth. Why must we replace when we can add?

"Cap! The Kllingon and the Krogan are fighting in the airlock again!"
[QUOTE=BlkDucky;37729993]yeah, but by then you pretty much need to have come across better weapons. There's not really much else you can do otherwise.[/QUOTE]
I once got to sector 5 without encountering a single store that sold jack shit, and I explored as much as I could
Lost on sector 4 thanks to 5 misses out of 6 shots.

You can't add playerships you have to reskin the existing ones.
Kickstarted this way back in March? Didn't think it would explode like it has. I'm glad this game is insane amount of fun. The chaos you get when you are fighting ships, and then having to manage your dudes running around putting out fires/fixing things..then trying to kill boarding enemies.
The Music is also really good

Would it be too much to ask for a simple tutorial on reskinning? If you don't mind, of course.

Turians as Engis, you know how good some of them are at calibrations
and Hanar as Slugs :v
I lost on the second flagship battle. It repairs to full health with a shitload of drones, and I have nowhere to repair but 3 turns left :(

I'm bad at writing tutorials so i'll try to explain it as simply as I can.
Assuming you've extracted resource and data, open the resource folder and the ships will be located in img/ships.
They are just png images and if you didnt extract resource or data there are some tutorials on the ftl forums.

dude, engine as geth! figured that'd be obvious.
but the geth are the bad guys
Finally beat the game!
.. on easy. First try, wasn't even that hard. Triple ion + Glaive beam was lots of fun.
