Space strategy from the world of Star Trek. The story takes place in the time of the New Generation and revolves around finding a stable Omega particle (which can provide the owner with unlimited energy) and preventing the Borg from obtaining it. The game takes place in space and offers four playable races: the Federation, Klingons, Romulans and Borg, one unplayable (Dominion) and several ships of other races. The player mines dilithium and builds space stations in which he builds ships. In addition to dilithium, another "raw material" is the crew, which grows on space stations (even more if it's on the planet). Interestingly, each type of ship has one special ability (plus one ship of each race is weaker, but has four), which can be various special weapons, assimilation or detection of disguised ships. Maps are made up of asteroid fields, black and wormholes and nebulae with different effects (weapons do not work, shields do not work, etc.)
