A Call To Arms

Like a plague of Locusts, not content with having consumed their own planet's natural resources and those of Mars, the Evil Earthlings' next target is Mercury. Defenceless against Earth's War Machine, the Mercurians have issued a plea for assistance, beamed to the outer reaches of the Solar System.

You are the leader of a small band of Martian survivors who have taken refuge on Titan.  Armed with only the small but powerful Gunstar Fighter, and a thirst for vengeance, you will answer the call!
