It's much easier, though, to use the main viewing mode perspective where you're above all the action.
The screen allows you to switch viewing modes to see action close up. However, it's also an action game at the same time! When enemy ships come into range, battle begins and you watch the action unfold before your eyes. Much of the game is played like a strategy title where you move your ship to certain areas and build stations. The action is not what you'd normally expect of a space shooter video game. When the animated movies begin in Star Trek: Armada, you get a sense the entire game will be filled with a great storyline.
Each mission brings you closer to defeating the long time enemy of the Federation, the Borg.
The graphics, storyline, gameplay and everything else is a fitting testament to the long running science fiction television epic. Star Trek fans and others alike will delight in this amazing adventure through time and space.
