Discovered... Gold?

While cleaning out my closets, I found an old CD case (one of those 200 CD carriers). Anyhow, I recognized my brother's writing on a lot of the CDs.

Funny, enough... I found copies of ST:Bridge Commander, ST:Away Team, ST:Klingon Academy, ST:Elite Force, ST:Armada, ST:Birth of the Federation, and something called ST: Starship Builder.

I had to laugh, as I never knew what those were until joining this community.

Someday, I'll have to see if I can find the time to look into them.

Star Trek Gold.

We play a couple of those through the Reserves and Ravens, however I must say I haven't played ST: Away Team and ST: Starship Builder in a long time. Both are very good games.

Star Trek Gold indeed

I have a few of them and boy are they good.

I only have Armada 1 and 2 to install. Not played some of those but good find!

When I get settled and unpacked... I'll have to look at them. I imagine they are quite small in file size compared to modern games.

Perhaps I could share the wealth. Especially after I get my 12 Mbps+ net connection.

I couldn't get Starship Builder to work well on my Windows 7 machine. Maybe you'll have better luck.

After reading this i got searching through my old games for Klingon Academy, Love that game, it even made me go and get starfleet academy. Its surprising how good those old games are after not playing them for ages

My bridge commander disk is damaged so I can't install it, which is so annoying as it's probably my favourite Star Trek game. I remember waiting nearly 7 hours downloading the demo over a 56k connection (114mb!) lol. The fact that I was on the bridge and giving my bridge officers orders was AWESOME. Even the graphics were great for it's day.

Armada was ok, but I could never get into it as much. Elite Force however I absolutely loved to bits! Especially the Borg missions, think they should bring in the infinity modulator as a purple rifle in STO lol.

Well, once I unpack and get my new fiber connection, I can probably FTP the files that are damaged or something. At least it would let you install it, etc.

Though, that won't be until end of Jan/early Feb. House is still being built.

Nice I have Bridge Command and Elite Force, I also have access via my uncle to the rest of those except possibly the ship builder. Need to see which ones work on Windows 7 though.

What about using a torrent? I found a couple of decent ones I have used in the past. I know torrents are wrong normally but I look at it as I bought the game I have a right to play it lol even if I have had to download a torrent due to a broken disk lol.

Edit: That was supposed to quote the quote in Silynn's Post aswell.
