Editorial Review:
The Star Trek: Starfleet Command Gold Edition has 26 new missions, featuring three Federation missions, three Klingon missions, 10 Hydran missions, seven Gorn Missions, and three Romulan missions. Similar to the original Star Trek: Starfleet Command, the Gold Edition offers you the starring role as a captain in any one of six star empires. You start out with command of a frigate, then take on missions, such as Convoy Escort and Courier. Depending on your success with the missions, you gain prestige. With prestige comes rank, larger ships, multiple ships, and more experienced officers.

Rating:  - Computer version of the STAR FLEET BATTLES boardgame
Excellent Star Trek tactical level wargame which tests your ability to think, not the speed with which you can click the mouse or hit buttons on the keyboard.
Star Fleet Command, and its sequel games, are a brilliantly executed computer version of the Task Force Games & Amarillo Design Bureau Star Trek boardgame, Star Fleet Battles.
If you have ever played the boardgame, and enjoyed it, this has almost identical ships, races, and rules, but with the computer ... Read More
Rating: - Awesome, but lacking
I have played Starfleet Battles, D&D, and many other of these types of RPG games, and this is an execellent adaptation of the genre. I must say however, I do not understand why it's limited to two dimensions.
There is a bit more to playing the game than just point and shoot. You will have to learn to operate your ship in the Academy missions. It requires more than your average player is willing to invest.
All-in-all, an execellent game and worth the money.
Rating: - Pleased so far....
As a Starfleet Battles player 12-15 years ago, this game was not hard to master. I do feel sorry for people who never played the original game because they get all the complexity at once (even the original game started out simple and grew). Here are some simple tactical tips that still seem to work - 1) Don't be in a hurry to close with other ships until your weapons are fully charged and overloaded, if applicable. This is esp true for Romulans, Gorns, and Feds. 2) If you don't have any charged ... Read More
Rating: - Complex, but overall a good simulation
While I have not actually played Star Fleet Battles, I'm now interested in getting a look at the board game. I received this software as a gift and have been pleasantly surprised. The graphics are detailed and amazing. Gameplay, while it does take some time to master, is actually quite easy once you get the hang of it.
Just as you would imagine on a starship, there are many different things to do - and yes, it does take time for weapons to recharge in battle! However, the game does offer a series ... Read More
Rating:  - Very Dissapointing
I have been a fan of Star Trek since the beginning of it all, and bought this game after reading the stellar write ups and reviews. Had extremely high hopes for it, especially since it takes place in the "classic" universe. Upon playing it I found that the interface is so complex that to do anything requires clicking at least three different things. Each mission boiled down to this, aliens pounding me while I fire off one shot and stay still waiting for my energy to recharge. 5 minutes later if I'm ... Read More
