Hi There. Great site! Love the good old games available here. There is one game that I cant remember the title of but was hoping it might become available. Basically, you are the captain of a starship that you select the crew for (you can pick different races for each position each with their own strengths and weaknesses) and you can upgrade your ship with better armor, shields, engines, etc. You need to go from planet to planet (i believe the game even included a fold out map of the galaxy) and collect minerals, alien creatures, etc. and trade them for cash, which you can then use to upgrade the ship or train the crew. I remember the you had to put the ship in "standard orbit" and have the science officer scan the planet for what goods it contained and then you selected where on the planet you wanted to land. You could take out a little buggy armed with a laser and a stun gun to deal with any creatures you could find. I really wish I could remember the name of the game and I hope one of you can. I think it was out somewhere between 89-91. Thanks alot!
