Hence the best Star Trek RTS being based off of the game that made me make a Steam account, and not the much newer Stellaris. Given what little internet research I've been able to find about the Armada games, it seems like they took along the same sort of approach as SOASE. SOASE drops most of the economic aspects of RTS games in favor of fleet management. Not too fond of Stellaris since it seems to like a lot of micromanagement. Requirements * Windows /Me operating system * Pentium II 300MHz or equivalent * 64MB RAM * DirectX 8.Gonna guess that you don't have Stellaris nor played or seen the Mod for it called Star Trek New Horizons ?

This was a further attempt by developer Mad Doc Software to balance the 6 different factions and to fill vessel-type gaps of some of the races as seen in the series canon. The game features several vessels of different types that are taken from designs seen in other games or that were created specifically for this game. For example, the crew compliment of Borg vessels has been greatly reduced in comparison to the TV shows. This is obviously for balance reasons, however it is noticeable.

The overall strength and power of the vessels from these two factions has been greatly reduced in the game. Perhaps the most obvious is in regard to the Borg and Species 8472 factions. Differences from the TV SeriesFor the sake of balance, and to make the game more playable and enjoyable, many departures from the series and the canon universe have been made, especially in regard to the strengths and weaknesses of many of the vessels, as well as the overall size of every entity in the game. The remaining three races are only available in multiplayer and skirmish matches. However, unlike the first game, only three of the races have playable campaigns (Federation, Klingon and Borg - in that order). The four races from the previous game ( The Federation, Klingon Empire, Romulan Star Empire, Borg Collective) get many new vessels and abilities, some of which were not seen in the Television series' and were created for this game. The game introduces new two new resources to the original game's dynamic (metal and latinum) and two new races (The Cardassian Union and Species 8472). The story concerns the Borg's development of a weapon that is capable of assimilating entire planets, and their plan to use it against the races of the Alpha Quadrant. Like its predecessor, Armada II is a real-time strategy game set in the Star Trek universe. OverviewStar Trek: Armada II is the sequel to Star Trek: Armada, and picks up shortly after the first game.
