The game has given birth to the greater Star Fleet Universe and a number of related games: ''Federation Space'' and ''Federation & Empire'', allowing players to fight a strategic war across the known space; ''Prime Directive'', the {{RPG}} which started out with its own system, but was later adapted for use with ''TabletopGame/{{GURPS}}'', UsefulNotes/D20System and ''TabletopGame/{{d20 Modern}}'' systems; ''Starfleet Battle Force'', a card based game directly based and homaged to the classic card game ''Naval Wars''; ''Federation Commander'', referred to by all as ''SFB Light'', a simpler system stressing speed and ease of play over detail. And this does not even go into the fact that the base mechanics and most of the background used in the first two ''[[VideoGame/StarTrekStarfleetCommand Starfleet Command]]'' computer games were directly licensed from the ''Star Fleet Battles'' system.

** A RolePlayingGame was produced in 1993, called ''Prime Directive''. Initially it used its own rule system, but it faltered after only a few books were produced. It was rereleased in 2002 using the TabletopGame/{{GURPS}} system, and followed by parallel UsefulNotes/D20System books in 2011 (which have been superseded by the d20 Modern, which are still 'in-print'). The GURPS version was also revised for the 4th edition GURPS system in 2008 and is still available from Steve Jackson games.

A scatter pack doesn't fall apart after/when launching its drones. It can be recovered and re-armed.

** It's possible for any drone-armed ship to launch a "scatter pack" -- an un-manned shuttlecraft that is filled with missiles and set to fall apart and launch all of them under specific conditions. The Klingons in particular like these, since their ships tend to have drones but not enough launchers to put a significant number on the map without using a scatter pack.
