■ Story

It is Galactic Year 0013 -- 13 years since humanity began its exodus to the stars due to Earth's rapidly deteriorating environment. These settlers built neighboring colonies, recreating their home planet's lands, and began to grow accustomed to new lives free of want or worry.

One day, an unidentified ship drifted up to Colony #1, the new Japan. It appeared to be unmanned and remained motionless for days.

Then the ship abruptly began to emit a red light. Suddenly all eleven colonies found themselves surrounded by a massive fleet of UFOs.

The colonial defense forces stand ready to meet the invaders, but they stand little chance against the superior technology of their foes...

Humanity's last hope is the Gladiator, a state-of-the-art military prototype developed aboard the battleship Galaxy. It is currently en route to the Japan colony with the intention of retaking them all.
