Star Trek - The next Generation
Encounter at Arcturus
Written by Darin Acuistapace
This program is shareware, it isn't free. If you like it, $5 would
be greatly appreciated. Shareware is an excellent way to get good
software at a fraction of the price of commercial software.

System requirements:
This program requires an ST with at least 1 MEG OF MEMORY! Sorry
but some problems with the digitized sound routine preclude 520
owners. If enough there is enough interest/contributions, I may
release a version for 520 owners without the digitized sound or with
it if I can figure out how to make it work.
Because of the size of the combined files, a double-sided drive is
nice but not required. To run the program from a single-sided drive,
but all the files except "Starsnd.prg" and "Startrek.spl" on one disk
and these two files on another to minimize disk swapping.
About the program:
The game is easy to understand and you should begin to get an idea
of the different strategies after a few plays. The "Game Options"
button contains a few help screens and configuration options.
Start with one or two Ferengi and work your way up. battling five
Ferengi isn't easy and takes a good player to win.
This program was converted (actually rewritten) from a program called
Star Challenge published in the book "1001 Things to Do with Your
Personal Computer" by Mark Sawusch.
Let me know of any bugs/quirks you find or any ideas for improvement.
