You find a number of ships fleeing from a small space station. You hail them, asking what's wrong: "Help! We're being overrun by some sort of giant alien spiders!"
- Send the crew in immediately! Giant alien spiders are no joke.
- Your crew slowly creeps up on a cluster of the creatures from behind. Without warning, the giant arachnids turn and charge. However, your team stays in control and before long you've beaten them back. They are thrilled with your success and offer you a reward.

- Your crew boards the station, cautiously moving between corridors. Suddenly a man-sized arachnid bursts from a vent in the ceiling, followed by countless more. You fight your way back to the airlock and are forced to leave before accounting for all crew members. Not everyone made it back.

- Leave them alone.
- You can't risk fighting some unknown alien on every backwater station you come across. You prepare to jump.
- Nothing happens.

- (Boarding Drone) Launch a boarding drone into the station.
- You launch the drone and it crashes through their hull, leaving a huge breach. You watch as the drone tears through the creatures while debris and dead bodies fly out of the breach. The owners of the station are less than effusive when they thank you, and offer only a meager payment. Maybe it's a good time to leave...

- (Anti-Personnel Drone) Send your battle drone in to help.
- You pull up alongside the station and release the drone through the airlock. Within a short time the majority of the creatures are dead, with only a little collateral damage. They express their most sincere gratitude.

- (Bio Beam) Use the beam to pick off the spiders.
- You instruct them to drop their shields and you are able to kill the creatures without damaging the station. "The monsters just started bursting into flames as we watched. What a terrifying weapon... Here, take this for your help, friend."
