And the Galaxy Shook… is a Romulan story mission in Star Trek Fleet Command where you meet a mysterious benefactor and carry out a plot against the Romulan First Consul. It needs warp 75 to complete and moves through Corvidae, Talvath and Esto before sending you home. There is one scripted fight, when you take a Romulan civilian hostage. The reward is 75,600,000 Parsteel, 600 4★ Common Battleship Parts and a large Romulan reputation gain, paid for with a Federation reputation loss. It unlocks the next mission in the storyline.
And the Galaxy Shook… objectives
Six objectives, no choice split:
- Meet the Benefactor. Location: Corvidae.
- Find the Romulan civilian. Location: Talvath.
- Take the Romulan hostage. Location: Talvath. Enemy strength is roughly 912,580.
- Go to the First Consul’s Home. Location: Esto.
- Assassinate the First Consul. Location: Esto.
- Return to your Station.
The benefactor meeting in Corvidae sets the plan in motion. In Talvath you find a Romulan civilian and take them hostage, which is the one step with an enemy strength listed, at around 912,580. The story then moves to Esto and the First Consul’s home. No strength is listed for the assassination step itself, so the hostage fight is the only combat check. Returning to your station completes the mission.
Where and what warp
The mission has no pickup system and can be accepted from warp 1, but it needs warp 75 to complete. That covers Corvidae, Talvath and Esto.
The game lists a recommended level of 1. With warp 75 required and a fight near 900,000 strength, it belongs to the part of the game where those numbers are normal, whatever the listed level says.

Tips
Check your standings before you commit. The mission adds 311,000 Romulan Points and takes away 320,952 Federation Points, so it pushes you toward the Romulans at a real cost with the Federation.
Bring a ship that can win at around 912,580 strength for the hostage step. Everything else in the mission is travel, so that fight is the only point where a weak ship can stall.
The 600 4★ Common Battleship Parts are worth holding if you run a battleship. The Parsteel is the bigger prize for everyone else, at 75.6 million.
Previous mission: The First Shot. Next mission: Encore. More missions by level are on the mission guide.
