I liked how the 3 forms of the ship worked together, once I figured them out. The speedy one, the agile battle-ready one, and the shielded digging one. I got up to 5 points one time.\r\rUnfortunately I never did find any aliens or players to battle. So I feel like I missed out a bit on the combat. But I'll probably come back to this one later and maybe have better luck.
