Ambitious Moves is a level 8 mission in Star Trek Fleet Command set on Risa. Starfleet’s defense forces have left, and das Orion Syndicate sees an opening to take control. You uncover a hidden Syndicate ship, beat an Orion Corvette and collect your payment on Ruhao in the Groshi system. It is picked up in Risa and needs warp 5 to start and to complete. The reward is 500 Tritanium, an Encryption Key and 220 Officer XP.
Ambitious Moves objectives
Three objectives, no choice split:
- Uncover the hidden Syndikat ship in orbit of Suam. Location: Risa.
- Defeat the Orion Corvette. Location: Risa (enemy strength about 956).
- Collect your payment on Ruhao, in the Groshi system. Location: Groshi.
The first two steps both happen in Risa. You find the Syndicate ship hiding in orbit of Suam, then fight the Orion Corvette. The last step is a short hop to Groshi to be paid.
Wo und welcher Warp
Ambitious Moves is picked up in Risa and needs warp 5 to start and warp 5 to complete. Risa and Groshi are both inside that range, so once you can reach Risa you can finish it.
The recommended level is 8. The Orion Corvette at about 950 strength is the only fight, and it is sized for a ship around that level.
The route has two stops away from home: Risa for the search and the fight, then Groshi for the payment. Neither is visited twice.
Ambitious Moves rewards
| Belohnung | Amount |
|---|---|

| Encryption Key | 1 |
| Officer XP | 220 |
Ambitious Moves is a standalone mission and does not unlock a follow-up.
Tips
Accept it in Risa and do both Risa objectives before leaving. The search and the fight are back to back, so there is no reason to fly out and return.
Go into the Corvette fight repaired. It is the only combat step, and at level 8 an early ship can still lose a close battle.
Tritanium is harder to come by than Parsteel at level 8, so 500 of it is worth having for the next building upgrade. The Encryption Key is an item reward; keep it in your inventory until you have a use for it.
The Officer XP is small but helps level the crew you are using at this stage. Put it on the captain of the ship you use most, since that is where the early levels count.
If you have other Missionen near Risa, this one fits well between them. It needs only warp 5, has one easy fight and no donation, so it is quick to clear. More missions around level 8 are on the Missionsleitfaden.
