Vega Strike wants an oldish version of libboost that is not available in Trusty. 

Adding a Precise mirror gives access to older packages. 

This might work to fix many similar problems. 

These lines add a Precise mirror, and make the system aware of the packages in it. 

$ echo "deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu precise main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kernel.org.precise.main.list 
$ sudo apt-get update 

Then, if you want to install Vega Strike, you could use this line: 

$ sudo apt-get install vegastrike vegastrike-data 

And, if you want all the blingies of it, too, you could use this: 

$ sudo apt-get install vegastrike-extra vegastrike-music vegastrike-speech 

I haven't played Vega Strike yet. I've only played "Let's install Vega Strike". I hope VegaStrike is as much fun as "Let's install Vega Strike".

This is a good time for a r3VOLution.
