Star Fleet Battles

Star Fleet Battles is a tabletop tactical Starship combat game set roughly in the original series Star Trek Universe. The game allows players to take command of one of several Star Trek fleets (such as Federation, Klingon, or Romulan), or one of a few of Star Fleet Battle's own design (such as Lyran).

It should be noted that the original license for Star Fleet Battles does not come from either Desilu Inc., or Paramount Inc., but from, the creator of the Star Fleet Technical Manual, though they have now a limited license to continue from Paramont. As such, the universe presented within the game is based not on the television show, but on Franz Joseph's work. This limitation is why Star Fleet Battles cannot use designs found in later official Star Trek ventures, such as or.
