Overview
In this add-on, the Lone Wanderer finds themselves abducted by extraterrestrials and taken them aboard their alien mothership after stumbling upon the source of an unintelligible radio transmission and exotic piece of alien technology. Orbiting high above the Earth's atmosphere, the Lone Wanderer must adapt to using alien technology to defeat their alien captors... with the help of some fellow abductees, of course.

The abductees all have special talents and backgrounds from every walks of life. A little girl, a U.S. Army medic from the Anchorage Reclamation, a post-War slaver, a cowboy from the Wild West and a Japanese samurai all aid the Lone Wanderer in their combined mission to escape the foreign environment. After defeating the alien captors, the Lone Wanderer takes control of the mothership, but is able to return to Earth at anytime, leaving this ship in the hands of a capable crew.
