Starfleet Command 2 is my personal preference for that series, and it's probably the best 'ship centered' Trek game. That said, it's based on Star Fleet Battles more than Star Trek, and some Trek fans seem to have a certain intolerance for that.

Oldies but goodies to dig up are Star Trek: 25th Anniversary or Star Trek: Judgment Rites. That's only if you like adventure games, though.

Fleet Management styles you cant go wrong with the Starfleet Command series or Armada. If an FPS is what you want, go for Elite Force or Elite Force 2 (there is actually a total conversion for Elite Force that turns it into an RPG that you can play online, its called RPG-X)

Bridge Commander is one of my favourites, with the Kobyashi Maru mod; but be careful if you have Vista, I've had a couple of problems with it.

Also, try and dig up the old Starfleet Academy game. Its a space combat orientated one, but with other aspects, like crew interaction and "WWCKD".

Star Trek Excalibur is a fanmade project that is ongoing, but there is no fixed release date. I sort of want a Silent Hunter style game in the Star Trek universe, but I doubt that is on the cards.

I have Star Trek: Klingon Acadamy and it is an excellent game. I found and performed the CD to DVD mod so you do not have to swap out the CD's all the time. It is the one that I always re-install when I rebuild my system.

SFC3 with the generation Wars mod ROCKS. You can play just about ANY ship from ANY of the era's of trek.

Here is the rundown of the Star Trek games I have.

Star Fleet Command 1,2, & 3
Star trek Armada 1 & II
Star Trek : Starfleet Acadamy (the original version, not that wimpy 3 disk version abridged version)
Star Trek : Klingon Acadamy
Star Trek : Bridge Commander

Well there's a few to choose from but they're getting a bit long in the tooth.

Star Trek: 25th Anniversary
Star Trek: Judgment Rites

-Both are excellent point and click adventures but are low res and dos, they run using dosbox however.

Star Trek: Klingon Academy

-Always thought this one was better than Bridge Commander but your mileage will vary.

Starfleet Command 2

-Absolutely rocks, my fav of them all not just because I'm more of a fan of the original series but the complexity of this game keeps me coming back. If you can get a LAN game going of this you'll be in for a good time.


Oh and for your guys info as far as I know Starfleet Command 4 has been in development for a while now by the Dynaverse guys.

Star Trek : Starfleet Academy (PC version)

Sure, it's not the best ST game, but it has Kirk, Sulu and Chekov in live action . And a host of amateur actors , with you as one of them.

I found the combat a bit frustrating though, it was really weird that Phasers were quantized (i.e like those laser weapons in star wars and not a continuous stream). But, the game was actually fun despite it's numerous flaws.
