  Review - Starfleet Command Warps onto PCs
Now, Interplay is bringing Starfleet Battles into the 90s with a PC game called Starfleet Command (SFC).
With SFC, the strategy board game has been transformed into an exciting real-time starship combat simulation that is based on the skill and nerves of the "captain," not his hand to eye skill or his blind luck.
Transporters also play a large role in Starfleet combat, as SFC includes marines that can be beamed in and instructed to attack specific systems as well as transporter bombs that can be set off in space.

  Starfleet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Starfleet predates the founding of the Federation by several decades, and was responsible for launching the first Human Warp 5-capable starship, the Enterprise NX-01.
Starfleet has been shown to handle diplomatic, scientific, and military missions, although their main mandate seems to be one of peaceful exploration.
Starfleet ranks and insignia are similar to that in use with the United States Navy.

 Starfleet Command - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the fictional world of Star Trek, Starfleet Command is the headquarters of Starfleet, the directorate of exploration and defense for the United Federation of Planets.
Starfleet Command is the operating authority for the interstellar scientific, exploratory, and defensive agency of the United Federation of Planets.
Starfleet Command stayed in touch with its starships by means of a subspace radio communications network, but even with this faster-than-light medium, interstellar space is so vast that it was not uncommon for ships on the frontier to be out of touch.

Starfleet Command is able to communicate at any time to any of it's numerous starships, starbases or other facilities through billions of channels of communication, boosted to subspace speeds to counteract the vast distances covered.
Starfleet Command is well served by airtrams, shuttlecraft and transporters, enabling all personnel rapid access to and from the Starfleet Headquarters to any number of Federation destinations including: the Presidential residence in Paris, the Starbase 1 facility orbiting Earth and the San Francisco Orbital Yards.
Starfleet is ideally located for it's purpose and a day trip to the centre of operations of the Starfleet is rarely enough and a repeat visit, often in the form of enrolling into the Starfleet, is quite common.

 StarfleetCommand3
StarFleet Command III broadens the spectrum of the game, allowing players to tackle the challenges of the 24th century this time around, with new options and scenarios befitting the adventures of Captain's Picard, Sisko, and Janeway.
StarFleet Command III isn't necessarily a rehash of an old school game, however, and does contain many new elements to its design structure and gameplay that should warrant attention from fans of the original releases.
Changing the theme of the game, StarFleet Command III finds itself set in the timeline of Star Trek: The Next Generation, some 75 years after the voyages of Captain Kirk and the rest of the original crew of the Enterprise (where the background stories and gameplay of the previous editions of SFC were set in).

I haven’t had the opportunity to play either of the previous two titles in the Starfleet Command series, nor have I had much exposure to the table-top progenitor, Starfleet Battles, so this review is strictly from the viewpoint of a Starfleet Command Newbie.
Starfleet Command 3 is a real-time combat simulator set in the Star Trek universe.
I can see that simplification was the goal in Starfleet Command 3, but with that simplification needs to come a different flavor of game-perhaps a game that’s a bit more “high adventure” and moves a bit more frantically.

Star Trek: Starfleet Command - Orion Pirates is an expansion pack for Star Trek: Starfleet Command 2 where instead of only being able to play the original empires like the Klingons and Romulans, now a new faction has been thrown in: the Orion Pirates.
Star Trek: Starfleet Command - Orion Pirates is a real-time tactical simulator where you control a fleet of up to three starships in a 3D environment.
For instance, in Starfleet Command 2 there were times when you’d move seven or eight times before being able to select a mission, dramatically slowing down gameplay.

 GameOver - Starfleet Command Vol. II: Empires at War (c) Interplay   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Starfleet Command 2: Empires at War (SC2) is a follow up to what people previously touted as one of the first "true" Star Trek games aimed at simulating combat between those behemoth ships you see on TV.
SC2 continues this tradition, developed by Taldren, the crew in 14 Degrees East that created the original Starfleet Command, and published by Interplay, no small stranger to the Star Trek world themselves (a la the Star Trek 25th Anniversary adventures).
Technically SC2 is basically the same as the previous Starfleet Command except you get new missions, so for those who already have the original, it may not be entirely worth it.

In the same respect, it’s good to see Starfleet Command III make that same transition, even going so far as having the captain himself lend his talents as a voice actor to help narrate the tutorial, and spice up the storyline.
Starfleet Command III succeeds in capturing the one thing that every Star Trek game has sought (and most failed) to offer: a familiar taste of what we lost during that two-hour finale back in 1994, and have really failed to see anywhere but the big screen since.

 3D Gamers :: Star Trek Starfleet Command III :: Info
A tactical starship simulator, Star Trek Starfleet Command III will be the first title in the game series to take place in the Star Trek: The Next Generation timeline.
Similar to the earlier games in the SFC franchise Star Trek Starfleet Command III allows gamers to optimize their ship and allocate power to their ship's systems for different types of strategies such as hit-and-run maneuvers, ambushes or direct assaults.
However, Star Trek Starfleet Command III simplifies this process by introducing a new interface for system management that reduces the "micromanagement" of starship control, and allows players to focus on combat.

 Star Trek: Starfleet Command review for the PC
Starfleet Command is the best attempt to date to port the venerable board game "Starfleet Battles" to the computer.
We've seen dozens of games over the years, but until recently, none have even tried to claim to be faithful to the original rule set … and Starfleet Battles is even more complex (people are still trying to determine if the full SB rulebook is more or less complex than the US tax code).
But even without a ship builder, Starfleet Command is an excellent game with a tactical depth that would be hard pressed to match anywhere else.

 CNN - Game review: 'Starfleet Command' - September 8, 1999
The result is a far cry from Interplay's last Trek game, "Starfleet Academy." This is a good thing, since "Academy" had very little going for it despite the Trek license, which several publishers have had chances to denigrate.
"Starfleet Command" allows the player to captain in one of six different empires.
Adding to the replay value, "Starfleet Command" is playable within three "eras," which mainly affect which ship classes and weapons are available.
