A Germ of an Idea[]
The platform was invaded by Jason Naught, who had been hiding in one of the packagings taken from THI. He proceeds to upload a technological virus created by Tytus on its systems, causing them to malfunction. The program proceeds to shut down one of the engines. Molly contacts N-Tek and Max decides to head to the ship to save them, but Forge refuses as they couldn't let the platform be destroyed. They are then approached by Naught, who reveals to be the one who had infected their systems. He tells them that Toxzon had created the virus and Max and Steel find the villain, who is then taken to N-Tek while being in a numb state.
The virus proceeds to deactivate the other engines and the ship is about to crash down when Max and Steel manage to reach out to Toxzon. The platform is stabilized and Forge arrests Jason.
The Great Turbo Star Caper[]
Forge is on the weapons platform when Max calls.
The Final Countdown Part One and Two[]
After Makino's forces infiltrate Earth, Forge commands Berto to activate the Daedelus' stealth mode. As the alien ships circle around the platform, Forge commands to deactivate the stealth mode and proceeds to attack Makinian ships. Ferrus then proceeds to use the cannon to deactivate the Alphalink's shields, but Makino retaliates by using his Alpha Cannon that heavily damages the ship. Max and Steel quickly fly to the Daedelus platform and partially fix it.
Ven-Ghan later approaches Max and uses his technology to create a portal to store the beam of Makino's Alpha Cannon and later sends it back to the Alphalink, dealing large amounts of damage to the ship and protecting the Daedelus. While Max heads to the Alphalink with the Turbo Star, the Daedelus continues to deal with Makino's forces.
Eventually, the Alphalink is destroyed inside out by the efforts of Max, Jim and Steel. They head back to the Daedelus platform and reunite with the N-Teak team.
