Product Information
In this sequel to Star Trek: Armada, trekkers and strategy gamers lead the Federation, the Klingons, or the Borg in single-player missions featuring interstellar exploration and fleet combat. Each race has a specific agenda: the Federation needs to eliminate the Borg from the Delta Quadrant, Klingons act as peacekeepers in the Alpha Quadrant, and the Borg try to maintain their collective. Multiplayer games add races such as Romulans and Cardassians to the mix. Battles are planned tactically from a top-down perspective, then played out in real-time 3D.<br><br>In Instant Action mode, you select one of six races (including Species 8472), choose the area and resource level, then prepare battle plans to exterminate all other players. Multiplayer action on the Internet (GameSpy) or a LAN offers players the option of playing a regular game or engaging in Capture the Flag, Alliances, Collect Latinum, Colonize Planets, Defend Planets, or Assault modes.<br><br>Star Trek: Armada II objectives require you to manage unit attacks, repair and re-crew, patrol, scout, search and destroy, guard, build, or trade. Building requirements include freighters for moving resources, construction, repair, and colony ships, and combat vessels ranging from a Galaxy-class Federation ship to a Species 8472 battleship. To collect material resources, mining stations, orbital processing facilities, trading stations, shipyards, research facilities, science stations, and turrets (for protection) have to be created. Map objects include six types of planets, nebulae, and wormholes, all of which can help or hinder your missions.Product Identifiers

Armada II: A Blast From The Past
Armada II is one of those Star Trek games that many fans either love or hate, either with passion. I'm in the Love Camp and when I had an opportunity to obtain a copy of the game after my last copy was lost in a move, I jumped at it. Pros: The gameplay was as I remembered though understandably, the graphics are a little dated after the passage of time. In my mind, the game held up well and ran great on my Windows 7 machine. Everything that was supposed to be with the game was with the game. Cons: It's difficult to find fault with a game that you love, but I'll give it a go. One of the signature faults of many RTS games back in the day were pathing issues, or when certain game units would behave in a way that gets them stuck in certain places on the game map and you can't do a lot about it except ignore it or make a replacement unit. Thankfully, the game AI didn't exhibit a lot of issues that I could detect. Summary: In summary, while the game is a little long in the tooth compared to more recent fare, it does hold up for entertainment value and I would highly recommend trying it out as well as checking out the extensive Armada Modding Community whiich has done a great job breathing liffe into it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
