About Star Trek Online

More than a century has passed since the events of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and thirty years since the events of Star Trek: Nemesis. The Romulan Empire has fractured after the destruction of their homeworld; the Federation and Klingon Empire are at war yet again after decades of peace; militant Cardassians threaten the recovery of their own people. All the while, ancient powers lurk in the Delta and Gamma Quadrants, waiting for the right time to strike. The galaxy is in turmoil and it's up to you and your crew to save it!
