Awww . . . I'm not going to just give away the answer!  You haven't even 
tried!  Give it a shot!  I'll just get you started.

First, look up the words "destroy," "alien," and "ship."

"What about 'engage'?" I hear you cry.  Well, what *is* "engaging"?  It is 
"beginning to fight."  Therefore, look up the word for "fight."  I'll also 
tell you that there is a verb suffix which means "change of state," which can 
be used to mean "begin."

Don't forget to find the correct imperative verb prefixes!  Both verbs will 
need them.

Is that enough?  Go on, try it!
