Legend

this weekly starship demolition derby took place within the city-dome of Echnos City, found on the moon Echnos. The arena, which was located in the Echnos Exhibition Dome, and its layout were constantly changing, so that no regular competitor gained any sort of advantage. The speeders which raced in the event were all armed with a single weapon, which could be a laser turret, a small concussion missile launcher, or even a mining drill. The object was to make it all the way through four distinct quadrants of the race, each of which had its own specialized threats. Sometimes it was a tangled maze; other times it was a forest of spiked metallic trees. Contestants could use their weapons against each other or the terrain, in order to make their way to the finish. Should a competitor's vehicle be disabled, they were out of the race.
