rec-    p2/300 or better 128mb mem TNT --40fps                                 

fps dependent on machine/vid card and connect conditions

                           Public  Domain

Spaceport 147, the only remaining USMC installation to 
orbit Stroggos, has been our most important launching 
point in the battle against the Strogg. Used as a rearm
and refit dock, it was at the heart of operations in
field support for our forces. By order of the USMC Space
Command, the base has been declared a historical monument
and has been open for tourism. For weeks the site has been
peacefull and many visitors travel there to see the view of
the Stroggs Homeworld. Now the base has been the site for 
some very odd and unusual behavior. Details are sketchy, but 
reports comming in from field ops say explosions from rocket 
fire and crys for mercy have been taking place on the base late 
into evening and early morning hours. Medi-Vac Shuttles are 
constantly being re-routed to the base to attend to the 
wounded and the dead. A few slip and fall out of the base 
protective atmosphere shield and plumit to an instant death, 
while others are heard screaming, "YOU SORRY.."(beep). New 
reports comming in from field ops now indicate regular Medi-Vac 
Shuttle flights to and from the base. Almost every hour, 
and usually loaded to capacity with filled body bags. 
Authorities are still baffeld as to the reasons why such
activity is taking place on the base.

All who intend to travel to Spaceport 147 are advised
caution and to stay alert!!.......and watch your step!!! ;)
