Riposte is a Federation-aligned story mission in Star Trek Fleet Command. You join a band of Starfleet and Independent ships on an assault against a Romulan fleet gathering in the Devrom system and destroy three Romulanische Schiffe in a row. It is picked up in Sol and needs warp 40 both to start and to finish. The game lists a recommended level of 1, but the enemies run from about 1.37 to 2.1 million strength. The reward includes 100,000 Federation Points and Federation Credits, and finishing it unlocks A War on Two Fronts.
Riposte objectives
There are four objectives, all in Devrom, and no choice split:
- Travel to the edge of the Devrom system and prepare to engage the Romulanisch ships. Location: Devrom.
- Destroy the Romulan ship. Location: Devrom. Enemy strength is roughly 1,426,536.
- Destroy another Romulan ship. Location: Devrom. Enemy strength is roughly 1,373,877.
- Destroy the lead Romulan ship. Location: Devrom. Enemy strength is roughly 2,104,711.
After the approach, the mission is three straight fights. The first two ships are close in strength, and the lead ship at the end is about 50% stronger than either of them, so it is the fight that decides whether your ship is ready.
Wo und welcher Warp
The pickup system is Sol, and the mission needs warp 40 to start and complete. Every objective is in Devrom, so once you arrive there is no more travel until the fights are done.
The recommended level is listed as 1. Warp 40 and a lead ship above 2.1 million strength are the real requirements.

What the faction points mean
Riposte is a Federation mission, and the points reflect that. You gain 100,000 Föderation reputation but lose 151,200 Klingonisch and 33,600 Romulan reputation. The Klingon loss is larger than the Federation gain, so players working toward Klingon standing should weigh that before running it. The Fraktionsruf guide covers what those standings unlock.
Riposte and the missions after it
| Mission | Warp zum Abschließen | Main task | Choice split |
|---|---|---|---|
| Riposte | 40 | Destroy three Romulan ships in Devrom | Nein |
| Ein Krieg an zwei Fronten | 53 | Defend P’Jem from a Klingon assault, then capture the Klingon or let him go | Ja |
| Der Feind meines Feindes | 40 | Parlay with a Klingon General at Khitomer, then decide what to do with the data | Ja |
All three pay the same 600 Federation Credits, 100,000 Federation Points and a Damaged Datapad. The later two add a choice that changes the extra reward: recruit tokens on either path of A War on Two Fronts, and either Klingon recruit tokens or 750,000 Dilithium in The Enemy of My Enemy.
Tips
Take your strongest combat ship and repair between fights if needed. The three battles are back to back in Devrom, and the lead ship is the toughest of the three.
Watch your Klingon standing. If you rely on Klingon space, the 151,200 point loss here and in the Missionen that follow adds up quickly.
