  Netrek 
 
    A  16-player  graphical  {real-time}  battle  simulation 
  with  a  Star  Trek  theme.  The  game  is  divided  into  two  teams  of 
  eight  (or  less),  who  dogfight  each  other  and  attempt  to 
  conquer  each  other's  planets.  There  are  several  different 
  types  of  ships,  from  fast  fragile  scouts  up  to  big  slow 
  battleships;  this  allows  a  great  deal  of  variance  in  play 
  styles.  Netrek  is  played  using  a  {client}  to  connect  to  one 
  of  several  Netrek  {servers}  on  the  {Internet}.  There  is  a 
  metaserver  which  distributes  details  of  games  in  progress  on 
  other  servers.
