Middle Ground is a Star Trek Fleet Command mission where you help a group of Romulan refugees in exchange for information on Toryn. It is listed at recommended level 1, starts at warp 1 and needs warp 75 to complete, with stops in Tolain, Corvidae and Romulus before you bring a refugee named Ranelia home. There is no fight and no choice split. The reward is 990,000 Dilithium and 120 Premium Recruit Tokens, which is a strong return for a mission made entirely of travel.
Middle Ground objectives
There are four objectives, all travel, with no branching:
- Investigate the distress signal. Location: Tolain.
- Bring the refugees to a safe zone. Location: Corvidae.
- Bring Ranelia to Romulus. Location: Romulus.
- Bringen Sie Ranelia zu Ihrer Station.
The distress call in Tolain is where you find the refugees. From there you move them to a safe zone in Corvidae, then carry Ranelia on to Romulus. The last step brings Ranelia back to your station, and she stays in the story: the next mission ends with you returning to your station with her again.
Wo und welcher Warp
The mission picks up at warp 1 and needs warp 75 to complete. That warp 75 figure is what decides when you can run it; the recommended level of 1 does not tell you much. Tolain is the first system, followed by Corvidae and Romulus, and the mission ends back at your station.
Since every objective is a jump, the route is the whole mission. Three systems out and one trip home means fuel and travel time are the only real costs.
Middle Ground rewards
| Belohnung | Amount |
|---|---|
| Dilithium | 990,000 |
| Premium Recruit Token | 120 |
Completing Middle Ground also unlocks the next mission in the storyline, Reality Sinks In.
Middle Ground and Reality Sinks In compared
The two Missionen run back to back with the same warp 75 finish, but they play very differently:
| Mission | Warp zum Abschließen | Systeme | Fights | Belohnungen |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mittlerer Boden | 75 | Tolain, Corvidae, Romulus | Keine | 990,000 Dilithium, 120 Premium Recruit Token |
| Reality Sinks In | 75 | Ortexa | Only on the combat path: a bandit at about 2.7 million and a bandit leader at about 912,580 | Donation path: 100 4★ Uncommon Refined Gas, 190 4★ Uncommon Survey Parts. Combat path: 58,800,000 Parsteel, 8,820,000 Tritanium |
Middle Ground is the easy half. Reality Sinks In asks you to either donate 15,000,000 Parsteel or fight two bandits, so it pays to prepare for that before you finish this one.
Tips
A survey or transport-minded ship is fine here. There is no combat objective, so the only thing that matters is whether the ship can reach warp 75.
Plan the route as one trip. Tolain, Corvidae and Romulus come in a fixed order, and the mission ends at your station, so you can finish in a single run and dock straight after.
Stock up before moving on. If you intend to take the donation path in Reality Sinks In, have 15,000,000 Parsteel ready; if you intend to fight, bring a combat ship for the bandit at around 2.7 million strength.
