what is Star Fleet Battles?
“STAR FLEET BATTLES (SFB) is a game of starships. Each player in the game will personally command one starship (or sometimes more) which he will use in various scenarios to perform assigned missions. Starships in this game are portrayed at a level of detail and accuracy which had never been achieved when STAR FLEET BATTLES first appeared in 1979. Many games have imitated this level of detail in the last decade, but STAR FLEET BATTLES has continued to evolve and grow. STAR FLEET BATTLES is, at the same time, both complex in its mechanics and simple in its execution. Many things that sound difficult upon first reading the rules will become clear as the players attempt them. Starship captains undergo years of training for their jobs; don’t expect to master this game in a day.
