Game Play

You play as either the Federation, the Klingons, or the Borg each with there own objectives and story line. The game in style of play is very similar to the first game like the resource gathering. The main story line of the game is that the Borg have created a new super ship that is capable of assimilating an entire planet almost instantly, after the Borg fail in the attempt to assimilate the Alfa Quadrant, the Federation find a Transwarp portal that is used by the Borg and is capable of sending entire fleets from one quadrant to another, the Federation uses it send a force against the Borg. The game splits of into different stories from each side from here. The Federation fleet gets stuck in the Delta Quadrant after the Transwarp portal collapses, the Cardassians use the absence of the Federation fleet to begin there own attacks with the help of the Romulans and the Klingons have to play as peace keeps and stop the Cardassians.
