About Star Fleet Deluxe
Star Fleet Deluxe is a strategic interplanetary war game in the Star Fleet series, which to date has included Star Fleet I – The War Begins!, Star Fleet II – Krellan Commander (both published by Interstel Corporation), and Star Legions (published by Mindcraft). This series chronicles the life and death struggle for control of our galaxy during Galactic War II. This conflict is a crusade of revenge by the Krellan Empire, allied with the Zaldron Empire, to destroy the democratic United Galactic Alliance (UGA), which had humiliated the Krellans during the first galactic war (“the galactic war to end all galactic wars”).
The Earth is the principal member of the UGA, which has a sphere of influence of approximately 320 light years in diameter, occupying a volume of approximately 17 million cubic light years. The UGA consists of 395 inhabited member planets, of which 27 are home worlds, 185 are colonies (both dependent and independent), and 183 are pioneer planets (only with outposts and bases).
The Krellan Empire is a warrior-based society. Krellans are warm-blooded humanoids and as a race are extremely aggressive and courageous. They live to conquer and eradicate the weaker intelligent species from the galaxy, except for use as their slaves. Krellans do have a strong sense of honor and duty. For a Krellan to die in battle is the greatest honor of all. Thus the old Krellan motto: “To live is to conquer and to conquer is to live!” This philosophy that is ingrained in their society and taught to them from birth is what makes them such a dangerous enemy. Until their stunning setback in Galactic War I, when they were humbled by the UGA, they had never known defeat. That is why they are consumed by a burning obsession for revenge during the current war.
Star Fleet Deluxe (SFD) is set in the time period between Star Fleet I, in which the 36 UGA Invincible-class heavy cruisers first encountered the Krellan Piranha-class destroyers, and Star Fleet II, which is the full-blown invasion of UGA space using the entire might of the Krellan fleet, including troopships for invading UGA planets. In SFD the UGA still only has its individual heavy cruisers to throw at the invasion, but they are now faced with the second attack wave of the Krellans. This wave has supplemented the destroyer scouts with battle fleets, each of which consists of a powerful Klagar-class battlecruiser with four destroyer escorts, and supply fleets, each consisting of a Nebula-class supply ship with one or more destroyer escorts. As before, individual Zaldron ships with their cloaking devices add an additional dangerous element to the struggle. Star Fleet I was set entirely in the exploration zone of the UGA. By the time of SFD, the Krellans have driven the UGA ships back into the Defensive Zone, and their objective during the game is to reach and destroy the colonies in the Colonial Zone. Following this second wave of attack ships will be a third wave of invasion fleets to actually invade and conquer the UGA colonies and planets deeper in UGA space. In SFD, your aim is to stop the Krellan attack and drive them out of UGA territory. At this stage of the Krellan master invasion plan, they are not ready for a do or die attack. Their overall strategic objective is more than just destroying a few starbases and colonies, so they will retreat if they perceive that you have gotten the upper hand and their losses will be excessive if they continue.
Your mission in SFD is to take command of a UGA Invincible-class heavy cruiser and defend the 81 quadrants of an assigned region of space against the expected Krellan attack. You are to protect any colonies within your assigned region until the main UGA fleet can arrive to relieve you. If possible, you are to not only stop the Krellan and Zaldron invaders, but are to drive them back out of the region. For your support there will be a number of Guardian-class starbases located in the defensive

This is an old game with a long and storied history. And this is a phenomenal port. Classic strategy gaming at it's best, it has rapidly become one of my favorite games on Android.

It would be great if the ship was more trek-like and also if you could choose between various ship class as a perk for admirals/captains

UPDATE: I did a hard wipe of my tablet and left off the Google Games Service and Boom Beach. Works great now. Controls are great so far, got through tutorial fine. I played this as a kid on the 286 and used to love this game. Saw that it was on Google Play and bought it immediately.

I played a lot of Start Fleet I on the old 286 wayback. The Android version brings that all back pretty faithfully. If you played the PC game you'll be able to pick this up. The UI has a number of quirks that make it a bit cumbersome and hinder it. On my Samsung tablet, the "manual shield control" UI only shows shield #1 and #2; the others aren't accessible. Well, shield #3 is kind of accessible, but not usable. The fourth isn't even shown. This is really annoying since tactics often require specific shield configuration. Also, I can't figure out if I can change the ship heading without moving the ship. It seems you have to move to change heading. The original PC version you could move with a distance of zero to change heading. The app locks in portrait mode, another annoyance. My tablet's cover is made for landscape, so I've got to work around that. Despite the hindrances, it's faithful enough to the original gameplay, and for that grateful.

I LOVED THIS GAME IN 1984 !!!! ... and I love THIS APP! Very well done, I love using a touch screen to play as well. This app is Very true to the old DOS classic, and just as fun, if not more so.

I've played this game since it was first released for IBM pc's in 1986! Love this version and am happy to be able to play it again. Two quibbles: I would like to be able to choose my own ship, like in the old game, and, we need more direct shield control, as it is I can't seem to move freely in the quadrant, for fear of leaving a shield facing open. This new AAS, limits shield manipulation to the CURRENTLY facing shields. Not a huge problem, but tactically limiting. Other than that, great job, thank you!

Awesome game but the turn base fighting isn't fair. Enemies get to attack you twice for every one shot you send at them. This makes the game extremely frustrating to play. Also, not having any help from allies is ridiculous. There needs to be friendly ships. One ship being forced to kill 30+ enemy ships and 2+ battle cruisers doesn't make any sense and makes the game too challenging and very repetitive. The turn based fighting needs to be fixed and there needs to be ship upgrading.

Having played the originals I was delighted to find this game, and to see that it has not been ruined by modernisation, thank you so much for this and your efforts. Would be cool if ports could be done with the originals too, those I would pay for too..

You probably wouldn't expect an ancient PC game ported to an Android device to enthrall you with it's atmosphere, but man does Starfleet deliver here! Whether your calculating trajectories for reconnaissance probes, or laying mines to screen Krellan patrols, the game really helps you live out the fantasy of sitting on the bridge, captaining a certain famous NCC-Something-or-Other..

This is the best implementation of my original Starfleet game yet. Kevin did a fantastic job with the GUI and improved the game play over the PC version ( which never got past beta version). I think you will enjoy this game.

Where did this come from? Best of the "Trek" games and still has the wonderful career mode. By far the best interface I've ever seen for this sort of game. Bring on Krellan Commander!

Dr Sorensen released the first game in the series, "Star Fleet: The War Begins", back in 1983. I loved that game. This game ports a later version of the game to the Android. It adds a number of new features as well as adapting the UI to the touch screen. A great game.

Played this on my Tandy 1000 as a kid. Purchased it for my Samsung note 10 worked great. But the game insists on playing only in portrait mode in my new tab A. Which with shields makes it unplayable. Is there a fix coming for this?
