Combat Training 7: Veteran is the last step of the level 7 Combat Training set in Star Trek Fleet Command. Instead of a kill count, it asks you to defeat a single hostile captain at roughly 971 strength. It starts and finishes at warp 1, and the game lists a recommended level of 1. The reward is 150 Dilithium, six 10 Minute Speed Ups and two Vel K’Bentayr shards, which makes it a solid end to the level 7 set.
Combat Training 7: Veteran objectives
The story line is shared by all Combat Training Missionen: Test your skills in battle against escalating difficulties of hostile enemies. There is one objective and no choice split:
- Defeat the hostile captain. Enemy strength is roughly 971.
No system is named for the captain. The fight is the whole mission.
Wo und welcher Warp
Warp 1 to start, warp 1 to complete, and no pickup system.
The recommended level is listed as 1. The captain’s strength, about 971, is the number that matters, and a ship that has been clearing level 7 hostiles for the Rookie and Soldier steps should be close to ready.
Combat Training 7: Veteran rewards
| Belohnung | Amount |
|---|---|
| Dilithium | 150 |
| 10 Minute Speed Up | 6 |
| Vel K’Bentayr shards | 2 |
Completing it unlocks the next Combat Training mission, Kampftraining 8: Rookie.
How Veteran 7 compares with nearby Veteran steps
Every Combat Training level ends in a Veteran mission against a hostile captain. Current game data for the Veteran steps around this one:
| Mission | Captain strength | Belohnungen |
|---|---|---|
| Kampftraining 6: Veteran | ~669 | 90 Dilithium, 8 5 Minute Speed Up, 2 Schew Akria shards |
| Kampftraining 7: Veteran | ~971 | 150 Dilithium, 6 10 Minute Speed Up, 2 Vel K’Bentayr shards |
| Kampftraining 9: Veteran | ~1,903 | 400 Dilithium, 6 15 Minute Speed Up, 2 T'Laan shards |
| Kampftraining 10: Veteran | ~2,334 | 600 Dilithium, 8 15 Minute Speed Up, 2 Helvia shards |
The captain’s strength roughly doubles between levels 7 and 9, and the speed ups step up from 10 to 15 minutes each. Each Veteran mission pays two shards of the officer tied to that level.
The level 7 set and what follows
Combat Training 7: Rookie also pays Vel K’Bentayr, with 60 Dilithium and one shard for a single level 7 kill, and this Veteran step adds two more. Once it is done, the level 8 set begins with Combat Training 8: Rookie, which pays 95 Dilithium and a Gaila shard for one level 8 kill.
Tips
Repair fully before the fight. The captain is a single target, so a ship at full health gives you the best chance to win on the first try.
Use the six 10 Minute Speed Ups on early building upgrades. At this stage of the game an hour of speed ups covers a lot of short timers.
Previous mission: Kampftraining 7: Soldat. Next mission: Combat Training 8: Rookie. Other missions sorted by level are on the Missionsleitfaden.
