Centuries ago, en-route to the colonies of Mars, with a fresh, much needed cargo of fuel, equipment, supplies, and human colonists, an unforeseen accident caused a huge explosion that completely obliterated the cargo ship, USCS Archimedes. Now, all that remains is a toxic cloud orbiting the planet Mars. Demanding a cleanup, the citizens of Mars commissioned the independent waste recovery company GasworkZ, Inc., with explicit rights to reclaim the gas cloud that remained. Proving to be too toxic for even human workers, an extensive effort was made to use robotic entities to accomplish this task. Eventually, even they could not withstand the corrosive effects of the gases and fumes. Now abandoned, warriors from distant planets gather here to battle for the supremacy of their race. Ultimate survival depends upon skill, spirit, ..... and luck.
