Development
In later versions of the game players had "one time only" options such as The Corbomite Maneuver, where a player in a damaged ship could feign a self-destruct sequence to scare away the enemy. Actual self-destructs, which might take out an enemy that strayed too close, also were available. These kept the option open for a damaged ship to successfully flee, since conquering enemies tended to keep their distance.

“Women, because of their colonial relationship to men, have to fight for their own independence. This fight for our own independence will lead to the growth and development of the revolutionary movement in this country. Only the independent woman can be truly effective in the larger revolutionary struggle.”
