It was a time of peace and prosperity for mankind, when the space pirates of El Diablo
began the raids of 2270. Laying ruin to space resorts, destroying outposts, capturing
starships and viciously attacking entire planets, the pirates showed no mercy. Earth's
high-tech defense force, the Marines, were decimated by the onslaught of these alien
warriors. The forces of the pirates seemed unstoppable, and mankind's very survival
hung in the balance. At the helm of El Diablo were the fiercest of the alien forces.
Adorned in blue garments and wicked by nature, these pirate leaders were soon given
the nickname of Devil in a Blue Dress.
Then stepped in one brave marine to challenge the pirates. Turning back the resort
attackers and the outpost destruction squads was only the beginning. Going on the
offensive, routing the alien crew of the Diablo, and moving on to the stronghold
on the pirate home world climaxed with the defeat of the head pirates themselves.
Rescuing resorts and outposts, winning battles against unthinkable odds, solving
mind boggling puzzles, and conquering the pirate home world, one brave marine managed
to save the galaxy from a most horrible demise and end the reign of the Devil in
a Blue Dress. For a time, it seemed that this bloody interruption of human civilization
had come to a close.
But wait! What's this? Discovered on the pirate home world during the cleanup mission
are artifacts of unknown origin, strange devices and eerie potions that leave many
questions unanswered. No one seemed to understand what these discoveries meant ...
no one except the artificial intelligence known as Merlin. As Merlin unravels the
mysteries and reveals surprising information about his own existence, our brave marine
begins to realize that the real battle has not yet begun.
From the bowels
of evil rises the most powerful foe to challenge you yet: the cunningly malevolent
sorceress Morgana. Rising to power during the period of Camelot, she discovers a
means to travel through time. Luring the darkness out of most creatures she encounters,
she begins to build empires on her trek through time. Morgana has a diabolical plan
and you now must stop her.
You will begin your journey in the sickbay of the starship called Kronos, an advanced
exploration craft conducting experimentation with new time travel technology. Once
reunited with Merlin, you will learn more about the adventures to follow, and the
forces which you must overcome.
