Description
-----------

This is a 2000 baud BASIC program for use with a Bally Astrocade and Astrobasic.

You are sitting at the helm of the 400,000 metric ton starship looking through the front viewing screen into deep space.  It is a weary ship.  You have already destroyed a Klingon outpost and have just done battle with a Class 1 cruiser.  Suddenly a siren sounds Red Alert.  Klingon Battle Cruiser flashes across the sensor read out and suddenly the vessel appears on the screen, very small at first, but getting bigger as he approaches.  Hes attacking at Warp Factor 6!  Before you react, the enemy fires!  An alarm sounds!  Engineering reports the hit damages the photon torpedoes.  The forward shield is still weakened from the last battle.  Another blast fills the screen as its about to hit.  You must act quickly!  You are not yet in phaser range.  What will you do???
