Author's Description

One of the most frustrating aspects of the original Wing Commander series was the asteroid fields. They seem to have been put in solely for nothing other than to lengthen gameplay via frustration.

So, without further ado, here's how to adjust the difficulty of asteroids in Wing Commander.
