Star Trek: Birth of the Federation

If Armada is the RTS I'd say avoid it like the plague. Horrible RTS with a thin veneer of Trekkiness to try and attract buyers.

The Starfleet Battles series is fun if you like small fleet engagements. I tried SB2 I got tired of it after a while because the game was just an excuse to pitch you into lots of battles which tended to get similar.

That would seem to describe most RTSs to me. They all seem to me to be Warcraft with a thin veneer on top and a name change (to Starcraft, Total Ann., C&C, Armada, etc, ad nausem).
