The Seeds of Chaos is a level 14 story mission in Star Trek Fleet Command in which you turn the Nausicaans and the Takret against each other. You plant two fake messages in the Nausicaa system, clear six hostiles there and head home. It is picked up in Nelve or Bellas and needs warp 8 to start and to finish. The reward is 8,000 Parsteel. It is a compact mission with all the work in one system.
The Seeds of Chaos objectives
Es gibt vier Ziele und keine Verzweigung:
- Plant a fake message on Azaxa. Location: Nausicaa.
- Plant a fake message on Nausicaa Prime. Location: Nausicaa.
- Defeat 6 Hostiles in Nausicaa. Location: Nausicaa.
- Rückkehr zur Station.
Every action step happens in Nausicaa, a level 12 neutral system. The two fake messages go to two different planets, Azaxa and Nausicaa Prime, so you visit both before the fighting starts. The objective names Nausicaa as the place for the six hostiles, so do the fighting there. After that you fly home.
Wo und welcher Warp
The mission can be picked up in either Nelve oder Bellas, both level 12 neutral systems. Warp 8 covers the start and the finish, so a ship that reaches either pickup system can also reach Nausicaa.
The recommended level is 14, a little above the level 12 systems involved. The six hostiles are the only combat.
The Seeds of Chaos rewards

Tips
Stay in Nausicaa once you arrive. The messages come first in the objective order, and the hostiles are in the same system, so one trip covers every step except the return home.
Bring a combat ship for the six hostiles. Six fights in a row add up, and repairing between them is cheaper than losing the ship. Other missions sorted by level are on the Missionsleitfaden.
