The Omega Peace Accords have been violated by the Plexarian Invincibles. Their bio-Transporters have warped into Earth's atmosphere, with the plan of dripping ooze from high up in the atmosphere into the Earth's seas. This ooze will raise the levels of the oceans, drowning out all life, so the Plexarians can overtake the planet. The Terran alliance has hastily created Gamma-Tube Absorbers in the Sargosso Sea, which can nullify the invading slime. You must use the Earth's Electro-Wedge Deflector warships to reroute the slime into the Absorbers to protect the world's seas.
