About Tactical Assault:
a real-time spaceship combat game for 1 or 2 players, featuring a wide array of authentic Star Trek races, ships, and weaponry from the universe of the original Star Trek series. Players take command of powerful Federation and Klingon warships and must outthink and out duel their opponents in order to succeed. Play through either the Federation or Klingon campaigns in single-player mode or go head-to-head against a friend in wireless multiplayer action. Key features:
* Based on the films of The Original Series. Space is the final frontier, Kirk is in command, and the Klingons are the bad guys. Play through the era that started it all with this classic Star Trek game.
* Real-time combat involving multiple warships. The true test of a Captain is his ability to act under fire. Every second counts as you attempt to out-maneuver enemy warships and expose their weaknesses while protecting your own.
* Two full campaign modes. Become a hero of the Federation or a champion of the Klingon Empire in two full-length, independent campaigns.
* Branching missions with multiple outcomes. You are in command. As the Captain, it is up to you to make the best decisions for your crew. With a multitude of paths to choose from, you will decide the direction and ultimate outcome of your campaign.
* Head-to-Head wireless multiplayer. Test your skills and tactics against the most challenging opponents you’ll find… your friends.
* Five playable races. In Skirmish and Multiplayer modes, command ships from the Federation, Klingon, Romulan, Gorn, and Orion fleets. Each fleet has its own combat philosophy, strengths, and weaknesses. Tactics that lead to victory for one race will result in disaster for another.
The Ultimate Universe: New Way to Select ships to battle against. (Star Trek: Legacy)
Have you been playing Ultimate Universe 1.0 and wanted to pick what enemies you were going to play against? Have you ever wanted to pick which allies would be helping insure their defeat? This is your chance to play a small scale battle of your choice with the Ultimate Universe 1.0 Release Mod. Your Team of 1 to 4, up to 8 Allied ships and 1 to 8 Enemy ships. You also get to choose to place a Starbase or Shipyard for yourself and your enemy. This Vs Battle is similar to the stock Skirmish mode except you pick all the ships in the match. There have been some other changes to the way Allied ships work as well. If your main fleet dies you don’t instantly loose the mission as long as you have at least 1 allied ship still operational. You get to setup either simple One on One fights if you like. Used in combination with the UUTools Singleplayer Race Selection function you can choose to fly ships from any of the UU 1.0 Races. The only limitations are Borg ships don’t mix well with other races, guess they are just too unfriendly… You can place any mixture you like on the Enemy Team, but be careful if you place Borg ships on the Allied fleet, it’s best if you do so to put them as low down on the Allied ship list as possible. Unless of course you set your Singeplayer Race to Borg then you can use any Borg ship in the Allies without fear, but then be careful about throwing in “other race ships”, and if you do put them to the bottom of the list.
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Activision Inc shareholders approved a deal on Tuesday to merge with French telecommunications and media group Vivendi SA's games unit, creating a public company called Activision Blizzard.
Activision said 92 percent of shares voted were in favor of the merger, which is expected to close on July 9 .
The deal gives Vivendi, creator of "World of Warcraft," a 52 percent ownership stake in the new company that would have annual revenue of $3.8 billion and more heft to take on Electronic Arts Inc, the world's biggest independent game publisher.
The deal was announced in December, but needed regulatory and shareholder approval before it was finalized. The transaction was approved by the European Commission in April.
The deal will place pressure on Redwood City, California- based Electronic Arts, which bid $2 billion in June to take over Take-Two Interactive Software Inc, publisher of the "Grand Theft Auto" series. Take-Two subsequently rejected the offer, saying it was too low.
Activision has said the deal with Vivendi will result in a strong financial showing in 2009. The company has already reaped success from its "Guitar Hero" and "Call of Duty" series.
Activision shares were down 55 cents, or 1.8 percent, at $31.46 in late trading on the Nasdaq. The stock is up about 6 percent so far this year, boosted by its top-selling "Guitar Hero" games.

oh and I also have another question, correct me if I'm wrong but was'nt the NX class the first federation ship, if so, how are there any pre- enterprise ships?
mainly just reworking the engines, the rest will come later piece by piece as i have time. Think you'll find the multiplayer will benefit more from this update. Dunno how many people still play it, but i know its talked about.
I would like the answer to the following questions:
1. How do you program SFC 2 so that the single player skirmish mode space field is as large as the "large" space field found in SPC 1 and how do you program SFC 3 so that a ship exiting the space field, in the single player skirmish mode, jumps to warp or continues at warp and does not "blow up"?
