Granted, there’s a pop-up that appears after you hover over a selected unit, but it’s not feasible to use during the chaos of combat. Massive melees between hordes of Cardassian and Species 8472 ships can quickly deteriorate into a jumbled, confused mess. It gets more confusing if you’re fighting a race with vessels that look similar. You get 80 ship types — so many, in fact, that most players will have trouble remembering which ships is which. Partly responsible for my disinterest is the often-muddled combat. But despite the diversity, the game never quite seemed as excited as other action-strategy heavyweights like StarCraft or Red Alert 2. You’ll be colonizing planets, trading between space stations, and fighting with enemy fleets. And the game’s now playable in true 3D, whereas the original had 3D units moving around a flat 2D plane.Īrmada 2 gives you a lot of stuff to do. Each race has its own series of special weapons and super-special weapons. You get six playable races: the Federation, the Klingon Empire, the Cardassian Union, the Romulan Empire, the Borg Collective, and Species 8472. The list of features included in Star Trek Armada 2 will read like a Trekker’s Christmas list.
