Description:

Don Fiddler had money, a lot of money, in fact he was one of the richest men alive. He was leader of a big company and could buy anything he wanted. He ordered NEXT Systems and Archer and Wesson to develop a small space glider, all things especially built for him. While NEXT did the technical production, Archer and Wesson should concentrate on the two laser weapons and the two rocket launchers the vehicle was to be armed with. After around 3 years the glider was ready for the first lift-off. Fiddler himself named the vehicle 'Moon Striker'. On the Moon Striker's first take off attempt, it crashed only seconds after lift off and was destroyed in a huge cloud of smoke. All that was left, was one of the rocket launchers, which took 3 years of manual work to build... During the crash site cleanup, the weapon disappeared... Never again was a weapon of this class produced, it was simply too time consuming and costly. Don Fiddler's son George Fiddler however was not dismayed about his father's death. Some people believe George Fiddler, who had now become leader of the company, had manipulated his father's glider...
