About

The galaxy is at war. The enemy has mobilized their fleet to blockade your planet and keep you isolated from your allies across the galaxy.

You are a blockade runner. You pilot a ship and lead a small fleet. You use a combination of careful planning, tactical maneuvering, and indefatigable intrepidity to get past the enemy guard ships. Penetrating the blockade will require ingenuity, bravery, diligence, and gallantry. Every time you pass through the blockade you help your planet win the war, but if your ship is intercepted, it will mean certain death. Will you take up the challenge?
