Star Trek: Conquest blends
turn-based strategy and real-time
combat from on board starships featured in the television series,
Star Trek: The Next Generation. Six playable factions include the Federation, Klingon, Romulan, Cardassian, Dominion, and Breen forces. The goal is to control the entire galaxy, so players must build structures, commission admirals, research technology, and manage fleets during a strategic phase. Fleets of up to seven vessels are deployed on a galactic map, whose size varies based on the number of opposing races.
Entering enemy territory automatically switches the game to a battle phase, which can be carried out in a real-time,
action-oriented event or simulated for a more tactical feel. In addition to the custom campaign, players can jump into a skirmish mode that pits two rival fleets against one other under a number of user-defined conditions. Adjustable options include AI difficulty, fog of war, and starting credits or currency. While the two console versions of
Star Trek: Conquest feature identical content, the
Wii game adds motion-based controls supporting both the
Wii Remote and
Nunchuk. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide
