STTR: Space War Simulation

STTR: Space War Simulation is a Star Trek variant that appeared in BYTE magazine with full listing and explanation. The player is in control of the Enterprise and is tasked to destroy all the Klingon battle cruisers roaming around the 8 by 8 quadrants of the galaxy. The player can move around and receive short-range scans which will notify the player of nearby stars, starbases, and Klingon. The player can also use long-range scanners to check more distant quadrants. The player has various weapons to fight the Klingons with. Phasers deal damage to their shields (more damage the closer the player is). Photon Torpedoes have a longer travel time and their trajectory can be calculated by the ship's computer. In defense, the player can raise and lower shields which negate incoming damage but will give out eventually.
