The lead product of Star Fleet Battles Captain's Edition. This is the fourth edition in the Star Fleet Battles series, and it is the current edition.

There have been two major reprintings of the rules, each of which incorporates some errata and cleanup in the rules in 1999 and 2005. These can be identified by a year printed on the lower part of the front cover (of the books, not the front cover of the box).

Re-implements:

 Star Fleet Battles
 Star Fleet Battles Designer's Edition
 Star Fleet Battles Commander's Edition
