Empire of Ashes is a Borg-era story mission in Star Trek Fleet Command in which you bring Meruth back to the Romulans and appeal for their help. The game lists a recommended level of 1, it starts at warp 1, and it needs warp 20 to complete. In the Rator system you face a Romulan Guard at roughly 293,839 strength and an Assimilated Valdore at roughly 296,419. The reward is 1,661,000 Parsteel and 245,000 Tritanium, and it unlocks Testgelände.
Empire of Ashes objectives
Es gibt vier Ziele und keine Verzweigung:
- Bring Meruth back to the Romulans on Kervas. Location: Rator.
- Besiegen Sie die Romulanisch Guard. Location: Rator. Enemy strength is roughly 293,839.
- Defeat the Assimilated Valdore. Location: Rator. Enemy strength is roughly 296,419.
- Kehren Sie zu Ihrer Station zurück.
Kervas is the planet in Rator where you deliver Meruth. The Romulan Guard is the first fight after the delivery, and the Assimilated Valdore follows it. Both fights are in Rator and come back to back, and the mission closes when you return home. Neither fight can be skipped, since there is no choice split, so every player faces both ships.
Wo und welcher Warp
No pickup system is listed. The mission starts at warp 1 and needs warp 20 to complete, and Rator is the only named system.
The recommended level is 1. The two fights at close to 300,000 strength each and the warp 20 finish are the real requirements.
Empire of Ashes rewards

How it compares with the missions around it
Empire of Ashes comes after Hausordnung, which itself follows Ein hervorragendes Beispiel. Current game data for the Missionen with data on either side:
| Mission | Warp zum Abschließen | Fights | Belohnungen |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ein hervorragendes Beispiel | 25 | 8 hostiles in Roda Alpha, then the USS Sterling (about 293,839) | 71,000 Dilithium, 351,000 Tritanium |
| Reich der Asche | 20 | Romulan Guard (about 293,839), Assimilated Valdore (about 296,419) | 1,661,000 Parsteel, 245,000 Tritanium |
| Testgelände | 23 | Assimiliert K’t’inga, Valdore and Kelvin (about 293,839 to 305,058) | 16 3★ Uncommon Refined Kristall, 800 Ultra Recruit Tokens, 280 3★ Battleship Parts, 280 3★ Interceptor Parts |
The fights in this stretch all sit near 300,000 strength. Empire of Ashes has the lowest warp and pays the most Parsteel, while Proving Grounds adds a third fight and an 800,000 Tritanium donation.
Tips
Bring a combat ship that can take two fights in a row. The Romulan Guard and the Assimilated Valdore come back to back in Rator, so arrive fully repaired. The two enemies are almost equal in strength, and if the Guard leaves your hull low, repair before taking on the Valdore rather than going straight in.
Keep the 245,000 Tritanium if you plan to continue. Proving Grounds asks for 800,000 Tritanium to repair a starbase’s defenses, and this reward covers part of it. Other missions sorted by level are on the Missionsleitfaden.
