However recently I decided to investigate to see if these great old BOTF2 projects were still alive after 15 years and much to my surprise and joy, they were! In fact due to a breakup in the Supremacy group now there were now 3 BOTF2 projects out there вЂ“ the ST BOTF2 Supremacy Project, the ST BOTF2 Rise Of The UFP Project (split from Supremacy) and the Birth of the Empires Project. I religiously followed them though all the 2000s however as the project updates got rather quiet I sadly lost track in the 2010s and just figured the projects had died like so many other great fan projects out there. The 2 biggest were the Star Trek Supremacy and Birth of The Empires projects. However fortunately in the early 2000s several fan groups decided to take on the mantle of making a BOTF2 sequel. Like many trekies I was devastated when Micropose lost the licence and fell apart ensuring thereвЂ™d probably never be a sequel to BOTF. Finally just before 9pm at night (closing time) we found a place with 1 copy left, jumped in the car and sped over there to get it! I stayed up all night playing BOTF and played it nonstop for days, weeks, months, and still came back to it repeatedly after years! So did James as he discovered that if you started the game with the cd you could take it out and still play, so for days he kept showing up at my house to borrow the disc for 20mins haha! I still remember that friday night in 1999 when BOTF was released and I first brought it home.В My mate James and I were calling every video game shop in my city but all copies were sold out as trekies were all racing to get this game. I was a big Master of Orion 1&2 player back in the day so to a play a Star Trek version of that was a dream that had become a reality. I still consider Star Trek The Next Generation вЂ“ Birth of the Federation to be one of the greatest Star Trek games ever made, which is why I gave it a big tribute on my Star Trek Games website.
