Maelstrom

You pilot your ship through the dreaded "Maelstrom" asteroid belt -- suddenly your best

friend thrusts towards you and fires, directly at your cockpit. You raise your shields

just in time, and the battle is joined.

The deadliest stretch of space known to mankind has just gotten deadlier. Everywhere

massive asteroids jostle for a chance to crush your ship, and deadly shinobi fighter

patrols pursue you across the asteroid belt. But the deadliest of them all is your sister

ship, assigned to you on patrol. The pilot, trained by your own Navy, battle hardened

by months in the Maelstrom, is equipped with a twin of your own ship and intimate knowledge

of your tactics.

The lovely Stratocaster R&R facility never sounded so good, but as you fire full

thrusters to dodge the latest barrage you begin to think you'll never get home...
