Beamriders are a breed all their own. Part warrior, part astronaut and part daredevil. If that sounds like you, and if you've made it to sector 14 with a score of 40,000 points or more, join the club. Send us a photo of your TV screen showing your sector and score, along with your name and address, and we'll send you the emblem that will identify you as an official Beamrider.
