Finally got my first Normal Stealth Cruiser victory. Damn near died, but thankfully Breach bombs are total bullshit.
I'm in sector 7, I was kind of forced to buy an ion blast II in sector 3, the majority of stores I've visited haven't had weapons, those that have, have mostly had these 3 exact weapons. Also I've received 3 free weapons(2 heavy ions and 1 ion blast II).
