Great Multiverse: Armada II is a real-time strategy game, published by Activision. The sequel to Great Multiverse: Armada, it featured improved three dimensional graphics as well as many new classes of ships, playable heroes, 5 new starfighter classes and buildable star dreadnoughts. It also added the Second Human Empire, The Empire of Calga and the United Republic of Columbia as playable factions.
Following some complaints about the length of the Armada version, the single-player campaign was altered for this game; now only three races are involved, and each storyline is mostly independent of the others: the Allies must repel a Borg invasion via a new type of transwarp gate, taking the assault into the Niau Universe; the Axis must deal with a renegade faction lead by Zachary Hale Comstock within Columbian military, while the Horde must stave off an attack by the Empire of Calga, before combining with the Allies to eliminate this galactic threat.
In Armada II, players acted as admirals in control of an entire theater of operations. Economics, strategy and tactics were equally important. Many important dynamics from Star Trek, Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica, Babylon 5 and Sins of a Solar Empire were simulated, such as many types of nebulae, a latinum-based wartime economy, neutral Ferengi traders, and a highly technology-dependent balance of power.
In the single-player mode, players progressed through three chapters which served as a primer to the various tactical scenarios typical to its gameplay.
