I find it simply tragic that this game hasn't made it to GOG yet, it took all the great gameplay of the first game, made several QoL upgrades and added new races from the old table-top game (Starfleet Battles, for those not aware that SFC was a spiritual adaptation of that TT battle sim), which introduced complex new strategical challenges.
As I recall, although I never completed the story, it had a more fully realized story mode that could be played from the perspective different factions.
I still have my game disc in usable state, but I lack the technical expertise to setup the emulation for it to function properly if I were to install the game.
My love for this game over the first does come with a slight bias, because one of my favorite races to play on TT was ISC, the proverbial "Villain / Antagonist" for the story.
Hehe, writing this actually makes me want to dig into the back of my closet to find my rules and game gear for SFB so I can introduce my grandkids to the game. I used to play 1v1 with my kids to kill time while we supervised the laundry at our apartment complex, then sit and watch TNG together before they went to bed.
I spent many hours as all factions mostly the Federation and Klingons, I loved the lore and the era of star trek that this is set in with a beautiful story and the ability to shape the star trek universe in a way never before seen. I fought the ISC in the largest battle I had ever played at the time and was mesmerised by the effect and how was blown by how I felt like a real captain.
This is a MUST Star Trek game!!!!
The extra two factions and improved damage textures are what make this game stand out from its predecessor. I would love to try to beat this game again. Some missions in the Starfleet Command series are extremely difficult, but it was a game I dumped so many hours into.
I loved all the creative new factions and ships in this game, which I played over and over. Personally my favorite of all the Starfleet Command games as the one that felt the deepest and the most interested in expanding the universe, not just playing in it. Might be one of the best Star Trek games of all time!
i miss the isc plasmatic pulsar device. please bring back this game. i loved the challenge of earning medals and getting promoted in the game. romulans were awesome too especially the kondor.
This is the best space combat sim I have ever played.
As a fan of the Starfleet Battles Tabletop game, which this is an adaptation of to computere, the combat system makes facing, movement speed, weapon arcs, energy levels, all important to claiming victory. Nothing else has ever come close.
I also loved the skrimish mode, which made the game eternally playable, until it would no longer run on windows. Please bring it back.
So many hours in this major improvement over Starfleet Command I. While crude, the Metaverse works pretty well, the matchmaking was decent, and the graphics for the time were amazing. There are tons of mods available, and a renewed version of this game would go a long way of cementing the game in Star Trek history as fondly as Starfleet Academy for some people.

Dune II: The Building of a DynastyDune II is often considered the first mainstream modern real-time strategy game and established many conventions of the genre. Even though set in Frank Herbert's famous Dune universe, the game is only loosely connected to the plot of any of the books or the films based from them. Controlling either of the three Houses, the player must fight a number of battles against the other Houses. In the early levels, the goal is simply to earn a certain number of credits, while in the later missions, all enemies must be destroyed.
The single resource in the game is the Spice, which must be collected by harvesters. The spice is converted to credits in a refinery, which are then spent to construct additional buildings and units. There are two terrain types: buildings can only be constructed on stone, while the Spice is only found on sand. However, units moving on sand attract the large sandworms of Dune, who are virtually indestructible and can swallow even large units whole. As levels progress, new and more advanced buildings and units are made available, including structures like a radar station, a repair facility or defense turrets and, for units, various ground troops, light vehicles and tanks. Each House can construct one unique special unit, and, after building a palace improvement, can unleash a unique palace effect.Science fiction
