 - Where's the strategy?I won't comment on the accuracy of the Star Trek canon in this game but if you are considering purchasing it consider the following: This game is not particularly stragetic in nature, you serve as the captain of a starship and you engage in intergalatic dogfights with multiple allies and multiple bogies. These battles are conducted in a two-dimensional environment rather than a true aerial environment aka there is no vertical plane only horizontal navigation. Because of the limited engagement environment this game quickly becomes repetitive as you deploy the same "Tactics" over and over (blast the same shield over and over until you can breach their hull). I feel the game would be better served if it lived up the hype on the box by allowing you to create fleets of starships and strategically deploying them, but if you prefer flight simulators this game serves as a reasonable approximation of one.
