With
most of its crew missing and its weapons systems ruined the space
research station Aegis is all but lost. As the last remaining
pilot you must help rebuild the station’s defences, acquire
alien technology and create your own uniquely
configured set of fighters. By mining the asteroids within the grid dimension,
valuable resources can be harvested to fuel the Aegis’
molecular furnace and build devastating weaponry. In the
warp you will encounter allies to aid in your struggle
to escape, uncover the terrible purpose of the evil Archnid
race and learn why you and the rest of the crew were brought
here.
