Sector Clear

You are at the core. Eight sectors, four rings, and everything that comes in is coming for you. Each turn you do ONE thing. That's the catch: your systems don't respond instantly. The interceptor takes two turns to arrive; the shield, three. By the time the order lands, the situation has changed. Anticipate, don't react. THREE SYSTEMS, NONE OF THEM ENOUGH · Interceptor: 3-sector arc. Destroys raiders. Reloads in 3 turns. · Shield: 5-sector hemisphere. Stops raiders and storms. Reloads in 5. · Pulse: global and instant. Clears the whole screen. Reloads in 8. Your panic button, and you only get it once every eight turns. DON'T TRUST WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE Three raiders side by side look just like a storm and beg for the shield; one well-aimed interceptor is enough. And when they come from all eight sides at once, it looks like a job for the pulse… but spend it there and you won't have it for…
