I've been playing it a lot the past two days. It's... Nifty, I'll give it that, it's very nifty. It's just also a pain in the ass, how shard it is to get so much as one new ship! Not only is it all randomly-generated, so the correct unlock conditions might not even appear in any given game, a lot of it is very Guide Dang It! in nature, and the rebel fleet encroaches, preventing you from making damn sure you've done everything possible.
