Description
Now the vast Star Trek galaxy is in your hands with the choice of leading one of the five Alliances. This is strategy at its keenest from the makers of civilization II and Master of Orion II. Can Romulans be outwitted by Klingon diplomacy? Can you make profits with a Ferengi? You'll soon find out. And, if all else fails, take the helm in detailed, turn-based 3-D space combat. Bodly go beyond your imagination!

Issues
- Game works with 1.02, but will possibly need no-CD patch depending on what installation disc you have.
- Annoying sound issues (such as voice getting cut short) with 4.0*, run with 4.4.3
- Game still crashes during large combat, seemingly random (luckily lightening rarely strikes same place time, so reload game and try again)
- Multiplayer is unlikely to work due to it being directplay (dx6.1), futher testing proves it does not work, error msg describes not being able to initialise TCP/IP, further testing required.
