Take evasive action!

From Create Your Own Story

You roll to port and bring your nose around, violently juking to the side as you try to break the missile lock! The warning light flickers on your console, then goes off. You see a streaking blue projectile fly past your ship; you know it will loop around and try to reacquire a target.

There's a sudden flare of fiery light from ahead of you; Flak's ship goes out in a ball of fire. Hunter Three disappears from the scope. "No!" you shout, pounding your console in frustration.

You surge forward, your blasters firing, and you manage to take one of the pirates out with your sudden assault. The remaining ship loops around and tries to get in behind you, but you juke to the side and come back at it.

A brief barrage of laser fire later, and the second pirate is dust. You glance at your scope, but the missile hasn't reacquired you. It looks like you're safe for the moment. Cursing under your breath, you survey the battlefield.

It looks like Slice is handling the gunship. There's a larger ship moving in slowly; the pirate's cruiser. You wonder how much damage a ship like yours could make on a larger ship like that; the autolasers on the outside wouldn't be able to hit you if you flew fast enough.

On the other hand, the fighters and gunship were out of the picture. Maybe it would be best to put in a landing and stay out of the way?

Strafe the corvette!
Go in for the landing.
