Repel Boarders Starboard – 005

Giving concise orders to the computer, you hail the strange craft on the open frequency. An image flashes on the screen, displaying an ugly humanoid alien with scaly, wet skin. You can’t help but wonder if he smells as bad as he looks. The computer’s translation engages, and the Alien warns in a computer-generated threatening tone: “You are violating Slotfedian space. Please immediately return the way you came, or you will be liquidated.”

You can plead your case (006), on passing 3/IQ against diplomacy you can negotiate (007), you can immediate depart in the direction from which you came X+1 (017), Y+1 (032), Z-1 (001); or you can attack, though the aliens will have initiative (003).
