   Screenshots and Feedback are from JR:STCS v2.00 |

| This game is fun and very easy to start playing for the first time. Even if you forgot how to play FASA's STCS Boardgame this computer version will do the hard work for you while keeping you informed of what is happening. To make things easier there is an automatic option for handling your ships power allocation so you can jump right into action. | Review Feedback in Red |

the total power available, put some in movement, shields or weapons. Theres an auto

This screen provides the controls for valid
movement. You can move your ship and if you dont like the move you just made, you can redo
it before confirming the end of your movement phase. Just like in the Boardgame where if you lift your fingers off the ship counter, your phase is over. |

be assigning weapons to fire at. It Highlights the weapons that are powered and in the firing arc. |

turn have been completed.
Feedback:This screen doesn't indicate
what turn number is up next. This would be useful for obvious reasons. |
