I loved this game when I was a kid, and was definitely ready to see this come up on GOG. With a few tweaks it can run on Windows 10 and 8: You have to edit the sfc.ini file to change async=0 under the mouse section. Then you have to run the config.exe and choose "primary display driver" then a resolution instead of your graphics card. That's been a bug since i've been playing the game (since about 2002). I was a fan as a kid as I still am. I'm a trekkie at heart, but I always loved looking at Starfleet Battles and even the old STCS (Starship Tactical Combat Simulator) that was ported to XP from DOS and Amiga. This game captures the same ideas of that game, just in real time. It makes you think on your feet and plays out a small story for you to enjoy. The story is small though, but it lets you take the conn and make your own way, your own stories, be your own captain. The combat is wonderful but the controls take some time to master, especially if you like to use the advanced options such as Electronic Warfair or defensive tractor beams. I always recomend anyone who likes star trek to start with this game in the series, as it was the best in my opinion. Not to say the other games weren't great... they have their points too. They just don't have as open of a campaign as this one, nor do they have you pitted against the giant space monsters, the Terrain Empire or stuck in a no win-scenario quite the same way as this one. Its worth the price to play again even at 15 years later for myself.
