Ze_ro Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Important Note: This week's competition is over, no further scores will be accepted. You may still use this thread to discuss Star Trek and compare future scores, but they will not be included in the score listing. You are the potential Captain of the USS Enterprise. Your train-ing mission: Save the Federation from their most powerful enemy...NOMAD! Fight off marauding Klingons and menacing Anti-Matter Saucers. Destroy them before they destroy you or they will deplete your Strategy Training Units. The longer you survive, the more space dangers you'll encounter. Do you dare to venture where no video game has gone before? Be brave, be bold, be daring...but BEWARE!

In case you don't have the manual, AtariAge has a typed copy of it available online. There's a lot of information on there, so I suggest you read it! Here are the main hints it provides: Keep the Enterprise moving - Klingons can't easliy destroy a moving target. Store up Photon Torpedoes for later sectors when enemy Klingons are more numerous. Learn how to get Klingons to persue the Enterprise in a line, and easily destroy them with one Photon blast. The anti-matter saucer always moves away from the Enterprise; to destroy it, make a swift about-face and fire away. Dock with your Starbase in early rounds to build supplies for more difficult rounds. Try NOT to dock in later rounds for increased bonus STU's. In the asteroid field, wind your way through obstacles by lightly moving joystick left or right to turn and immediately let Enterprise center itself. Only for wide sweeping turns should you HOLD the joystick left or right. Be patient, observe MOMAD's movements. NOMAD has a tendency to place mines in a cluster, steer carefully towards the mines to trak NOMAD. Avoid hitting or shooting mines, they will explode and deplete your supplies. Effective use of Warp Drive can allow you to position yourself near NOMAD. --Ze_ro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cybergoth Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Might be a way to adjust your TV pic? It's an elderly, old and small low budget TV - so I'm already happy that it's colored. I think even if I'd manage to scroll the score in, something else would scroll out at the bottom I think the main problem might be that I probably have a NTSC cartridge here.
