You receive a high amount of scrap and resources and the Slug Repair Gel augmentation, and you unlock the Slug Cruiser.Before you rig the ship's computer to guide the it back to the main Federation hangar you discover a unique augment that duplicates the Slug's ability to heal breaches!

Your mission is too pressing to take a test flight.

( After destroying enemy ship or After killing enemy crew) With the escort destroyed you take a look at your impressive prize.

( After the ship successfully escaped) The interceptor jumps away with the cruiser linked to its FTL signatures.

They must be linked! Don't let them get away! At the same time, the cruiser's FTL drive does the same.

( When the ship wants to escape) The interceptor powers up its FTL drive in preparation to escape.

You receive a high amount of scrap and resources.

You scrap what you can and prepare to move on. However, you find that it has long since disappeared into the clouds.

( After destroying enemy ship or After killing enemy crew) With the assault ship taken care of, you turn your attention to the construction platform.

This ship is stronger than the interceptor. You take the opportunity and move in to attack.įight the ship defending the platform After a time, the assault ship and most of the escort jumps away from the platform. They work just enough to let you keep tabs on their general position.

You overclock your sensors, trying to get them to function in the clouds.

(Improved Sensors) Try to maintain a lock on their ships from a distance.

The only ship left near the cruiser is an interceptor.

After a time, your Slug tells you the ship with a larger crew has jumped away.

You try to stay just far enough away that they won't detect your life signatures without actively searching for you.

(Slug Crew) Have your crewmember monitor their life signatures.

You give up the search and prepare to leave. However, after some frantic searching you can't tell if they left or you simply miscalculated your trajectory.

You wait for a time before attempting to advance toward the platform.

They must have been able to detect you with their telepathy! You are advancing slowly when suddenly the assault ship bursts through the clouds.Fly slowly toward their last known position.You slip into the nebula undetected but at this rate you are likely to get lost and lose track of them.Try to tail them without being noticed.The mobile construction platform is slowly slipping into the clouds. You arrive to discover an impressive cruiser being worked on by a few smaller ships and guarded by an assault ship. Oh well.' They give you the coordinates of the a prototype cruiser's mobile construction platform. 'By telling you we will probably die jussst as like as not. You ask where they were delivering the weapon.We don't want the weapon, we want information.This odd beam weapon does no damage to ships but instead greatly hurts the crew! Diabolical!.They're not going to be happy we gave it up, that isss for ssure.' 'Take thisss newly developed weapon we're transporting.'You have besssted us! Will you accept what is in our storeesss in exchange for our livess?' Direct attacks are not preferred by the Slugs, but of the three you see at this beacon, one has the brass to make a move on your position!.A Slug ship - a rogue, you suspect - approaches, but when he sees you're Federation he thinks better of the sneak attack and fires everything he has.A Slug passenger ship hails: 'Please, your worthy alien highnessesss, we are unarmed and sseeking asssylum.' You approach cautiously, and weapons immediately spring from their hull!.The Slug vessel you encounter here has obviously made a big score and is looking to test its new armaments.Your sensors are no match for the Slug's telepathic abilities - a ship you never even saw opens fire from astern!.The intro text for this event varies, and could be any of the following: This means that if you don't get the choice listed below, you merely haven't found this event yet. Accepting that surrender, however, yields different results and reveals which event is actually occurring. It is meant to be confused with the Slug fight in nebula random event as it has the same intro texts and the same kind of fight, leading to the same surrender text. To unlock the ship, you will need to have a Slug crewmember or level 2+ Sensors at the quest marker. (the ship can also be unlocked by winning the game with the Mantis Cruiser) This is the Slug Cruiser ship unlocking event. The Long-Ranged Scanners will say 'Possible Ship Detected'.
