Star Strider / int_2813c530 | comment |
Laser Hallway: One scene involves you trying to cross a series of chambers where androids are being welded. If the randomly firing laser gets you (determined by dice roll, as per usual Fighting Fantasy style) then your goose is cooked... | |

Covers Always Lie: See that fierce green alien on the front cover? That's not your character, nor is it a Gromulan — rather it's a Horned Dog-Faced guard, an artificial alien humanoid-dog hybrid you encounter while searching through some tunnels. | |

Deadly Dodging | |
Star Strider / int_87c62ade | comment |
Deadly Dodging: While confronting two androids wielding laser blades, you immediately leaps between the just as they swing ... causing one android to kill the other while getting its arm sliced off in the process. You then fight the weakened, one-armed android yourself (which is easy since its stats have been greatly decreased because of its disability). | |

Our Dragons Are Different: As you attempt to escape with the President in the end of the story, the Gromulans, in a last-ditch move, somehow summons a dragon to pursue your escape craft. It turns out this is just one of their many illusions, the "dragon" is just a missile that you can destroy before leaving. | |
