Yup. Asteroids are amongst my favorite ways to liven up any space combat game, but especially Silent Death...
Of course, being incorrigible, I am not above adding some cosmic rays randomly ripping across the board every now and again, just to see who's paying attention (ie., the rays are coming from a known direction, they come in randomly, and asteroids will block them. So... if you're caught between rocks and a cosmic ray comes shooting straight down the alley at your Nighthawk, don't say you weren't warned...
