It's a strange twist that the single-player campaign is not nearly as interesting as the arcade-like gameplay of the original, released about two years ago. Besides that, you'll also resolve a new Federation crisis with those nasty Borg, power more ships and command two new races, and compete against other Trek fans in a highly improved multiplayer environment. In the skirmish mode you can even blow their cargo ships off the face of the universe. Wham, see you in the next rerun, ya hairball!Īnd while this is not exactly the plot for the new Next Generation-era real-time strategy game, Star Trek: Armada II, you do encounter the annoying species occasionally. In fact, give me one day as a Federation Admiral and I'd photon torpedo them all back to their homeworld. Heck, I'd rather hob-knob with the Borg than associate with those furry excuses for a life form. Not only do they sound like nasally twelve-year old girls, but they look like rats on a bad hair day. Who needs 'em? Stinking bottom-dwellers of the universe. You'll still need either a disk in the drive or an ISO mounted to play.Ferengi. To play, launch Fleet Ops, then go to Options -> Mod Settings to launch mods and create shortcuts to mods. It should look like so: "Fleet Operations\Data\Mods\STA2 Classic" with that last folder containing a bunch of files and sub-folders.
Just go to the FO install location, go to the Data folder, create a Mods folder, and extract the folder there. You can then install The Classic Mod to access the original Armada 2 gameplay and campaign. Just run the installer and follow the directions.
Instead, install Fleet Ops using the A2 disk. The best solution is to not install A2 right away. This isn't an insurmountable problem, though. If you're on Windows 10 (and maybe 8) you don't even need special software since there's an ISO mounting system integrated into the OS.īeyond that, though, the Armada games are pretty much incompatible with anything later than XP. I backed up my disk a long time ago and that's how I've been playing for nearly a decade.
It should just detect that the disk is in a drive so long as the ISO is mounted.
