I did it!

May not be very impressive for you guys having played on hard and stuff but I just beat the Flagship for the first time on Easy and I'm currently pretty pumped about that and wanted to share my joy :)
I chose the Red-Tail for this attempt and had at the end a Glaive Beam with 3 of the standard Basic Lasers from the beginning supported by a Defense Drone Mark II. And that's about it. Most of the systems were maxed out and I played without AE so no mind control or other fancy stuff.
I did it! :) (Really sad that it's half past 11 so I couldn't let my emotions run free due to not wanting to wake my housemates or neighbours)

Congrats and don't let what others have (or have not) done detract from your victory.

I still have the occasional air-punch in FTL now and then. I don't give a shit.

If this were an ordinary game..

Easy----> Hardcore
Normal--> Nightmare
Hard----> Insanity

So well done sir, well done.

I would say stealth C is the worst but Engi B is pretty rough too. I here a lot of complaining about the slug ships but honestly they were my first victories.

Just do it xD

Stealth C has a very solid start, though. It can overpower level 2 shields, the Zoltan drone means you don't fear missiles, enemy drones can be destroyed with the anti-drone, recharge cycles are about 13 seconds and you get the (arguably) best augment in the game on top of that.

Engi B was the second one I won with 0.o. I can't get past sector 3 in slug B though.

The best moment is the first time you beat the goddam flagship! Good job and treasure that memory!
