An excellent game, but not a good comparison with non-hybrid of either genre since it eschews a lot of what the dedicated fans of each really hold as critical to those types of games. Not really, the Armada games are very simple even for the core RTS genre - they make classic Warcraft look like a deep strategic experience for the most part.Īs I said, Sins is a hybrid-genre game, with about equal emphasis on RTS and 4X elements. 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. All-new ship classes, weapons and intense tactical challenges collide in 3-D battles.Gonna guess that you don't have Stellaris nor played or seen the Mod for it called Star Trek New Horizons ? Battle in intense competition over LAN and the internet, where the outcome of every encounter depends on your ability to manage your fleets across the galaxy. Meanwhile, a spatial rift has the mysterious Species 8472 flooding into Federation space. The Borg are back with an insidious new weapon that threatens the very fabric of the galaxy. The game showcases events in the Alpha Quadrant between the United Federation of Planets, the Klingon Empire, the Romulan Star Empire, the Cardassian Union, Species 8472, and the Borg. Experience revolutionary effects, a true 3-D engine showcases the cinematic action of your 30+ starships.Ī real time strategy video game published by Activision in 2001, based upon the Star Trek universe.
