From Ashes is a single Vaadwaur story mission in Star Trek Fleet Command, recommended for level 50. The Vaadwaur have run out of Latinum and want a planet to settle, so you scan for candidates and visit them. It starts in the Vaadwaur system at warp 105 and needs warp 205 to complete. Both endings pay a Kathryn Janeway shard, but the Tritanium donations are large, so stockpile before you start.
From Ashes objectives
The first three steps are the same for everyone:
- Donate 200M Tritanium to perform a scan.
- Get to the first planet. Location: Lovmet.
- Get to the second planet. Location: Hazari.
- Decide how to proceed (choice split, see below).
The scan finds three worlds that could suit the Vaadwaur. The one in Lovmet turns out to be an old Vaadwaur colony, but a second scan shows heavy seismic activity that would wreck anything built there within a year. The Hazari planet fits, except that it already has colonists, and their leader has not forgotten what the Vaadwaur did to their ancestors. The talk ends in threats, and you have to decide what happens next.
Path 1: attack the colonists
- Destroy the colonists’ ship. Location: Hazari. Enemy strength about 15.2 million.
- Donate 50M Tritanium to restore Gebäude.
Rewards: 1 Kathryn Janeway shard, 10,000 5★ Raw Gas, 100,000 Officer XP.
Path 2: find another option
- Locate the third planet. Location: Grealo.
- Donate 150M Tritanium for colony construction.
Rewards: 1 Kathryn Janeway shard, 10,000 5★ Raw Erze, 50,000 Ship XP.
Wo und welcher Warp
You pick the mission up in the Vaadwaur system, which needs warp 105. Completing it needs warp 205, the reach required for the planet visits that follow. The recommended level is 50.
The Hazari fight on Path 1 is the only combat in the mission. Path 2 has no listed hostile at all.
From Ashes rewards
| Belohnung | Attack the colonists | Find another option |

| Kathryn Janeway shards | 1 | 1 |
| 5★ Rohgas | 10,000 | keine |
| 5★ Roherz | keine | 10,000 |
| Officer XP | 100,000 | keine |
| Ship XP | keine | 50,000 |
| Tritanium donated in total | 250M | 350M |
Tips
Count the Tritanium first. Every player pays 200M for the opening scan. After the choice, Path 1 adds another 50M and Path 2 adds 150M, so the full mission costs 250M or 350M Tritanium depending on the path.
Path 1 is cheaper but needs a ship that can beat a hostile of roughly 15.2 million strength in Hazari. If you do not have one, Path 2 swaps the fight for a trip to Grealo and an extra 100M Tritanium.
Pick the path by the 5★ raw material you need. Path 1 pays Raw Gas plus Officer XP; Path 2 pays Raw Ore plus Ship XP. The Janeway shard is the same on both.
