Back with hope, optimism, and a total pigheaded willingness to avoid looking facts in the face - as a fresh attempt to get to the final sector and stomp on the bosses face at long last gets underway.

This was a curious run, with a few things being running themes:
- The only species that we get offered as crew were Human or Engi
- I was REALLY misjudging the jump speed of the fleet at sector Exit points
- RNG was rather kind on weapons
- Don't get 'big gun' fever

Was doing pretty well in most sectors, but I just refused to learn my lesson in staying one step ahead of the fleet.
After the closest of close encounters, you'd thing caution would start to make an appearance... but no.
