Fleet Operations is a popular skirmish and multiplayer orientated total conversion modification for Activision's real-time strategy game Star Trek Armada II. The project's goal was not only to create a simple "modification" but as total conversion to make Armada II a worth successor to the second best selling Star Trek game Star Trek: Armada (behind Interplay's Star Trek: 25th Anniversary by a small, but fair margin). Version 3.0 includes advanced graphics, a whole new user interface, completly replaced ship models, 5 balanced races with totally new gameplay and tons of new possibilities making Armada II a real real-time strategy multiplayer game.

Yea, you may have already guessed it - after the issues with the last patch, consider the new 3.0.5 as the "real 3.0.4" Don't forget to check out the updated Romulan Intelligence Center coming with this patch, it should be a lot more interesting to use - and it's the only station that is able to gain ranks.

Is there going to be a 4.0? or are you guys just going to patch until there's no bugs found and call it a wrap?

Alternatively, you could simply dub the verified complete and unbugged version as 4.0...

Outstanding.

I've loved Fleet Ops since you were in beta all those years go. I remember how it choked my machine back then! Thanks for the patch. Hopefully this will fix some of my crashing issues in large games.

And far be it for me to request anything from you after such a superb job, but I've always loved DJ Curtis's Century class...
