  • Rescuerigel-Alt
    1 Rescue at Rigel For Sudden Smith, getting into the Tollah moonba:se was not difficult. The hard part was finding his way through the maze of underground corridors, tunneled-out chambers, gravshafts, and tele­ portals, releasing the ten humans held captive somewhere within­ and getting out alive. Not that there was much choice: a full-scale attack from space would ensure the death of the prisoners. The trouble had started when a renegade High Tollah, fearing the traditional Tollah punishment for deposed leaders (being de­ mandibled), sought sanctuary in the Stellar Union. In a snit of frustration, the remaining High Tollah ordered a clawful of the nearest men and women-who happened to be from the Orion colony of Ultima Thule-taken prisoner. Inside a secret base on a moonlet circling Rigel, on the fringe of human-occupied space, Tollah scientists used their unwilling subjects to find a means of reducing the human race to the status ot Common Tollah-which is to say, sheep. In the Tollah scheme of things, there was room in the cosmos for only one set of decision-makers: the High Tollah. Rescue at Rigel, our first STARQUEST, brings the man-to-man excitement of our DUNJONQUEST series to the familiar universe of our ORION science-fiction games. It's a struggle not only against armed aliens, hostile creatures, and an unexplored environment, but • also against time and the dwindling resources of the vital powerpack. As Sudden Smith, it's all up to.you: You decide when to activate your force shield and at what setting to keep your powergun.
