Description:
The Earth, Moon, and Martian colonies are under alien attack, but the war against the Jovian Lizards has, so far, been nothing short of a series of disasters. Disgusted by the incompetence of Earth's military, independent arms manufacturer Nergal builds its own space battleship and plans to launch a desperate offensive to save humanity. Due to a shortage of trained soldiers, however, they've assembled the most unorthodox crew to ever launch into orbit!

With a pacifist cook turned unwilling mecha pilot and a ditsy admiral's daughter in command, can this unprecedented gathering of geeks, misfits, and anime fans prevail against the Jovian menace?
