Behind the scenes

 * Archimedes is rumored to have developed the plans for a 'death ray' super weapon. The weapon would harness the power of the sun through a series of mirrors and prisms, resulting in an intense beam of light that was intended to sink enemy ships.The player might be able to use this as a weapon in a quest.
 * Helios was the Greek god of the sun, whom was pictured as a handsome man who rode a chariot lead by flaming horses. One story tells of Helio's son, Phaeton driving his father's chariot, and as it went out of control, drove it into the Earth and set it on fire. This may be the inspiration for making the Helios One Power Station the source of the Archimedes II Laser...Or it may just have been Poseidon Industry's obsession with naming things after Greek figures.
