Who Wants to Begin? is a level 62 main storyline mission in Star Trek Fleet Befehl. After the talks with the major factions go badly, Maia needs time to draft a plan, and she asks you to keep exploring the Mortican Frontier in the meantime. The mission needs only warp 1 to start and finish: complete 5 Planetary missions and donate 5 Planetary datapads. The reward is 5,170,000,000 Tritanium and 324,000 Raw Σ-Parsteel, and it unlocks Developing Minds.
Who Wants to Begin? objectives
There are two objectives and no choice split:
- Complete 5 Planetary missions.
- Donate 5 Planetary datapads.
Neither step names a system. The first asks for any five Planetary missions, and the second has you hand in five Planetary datapads so Maia can keep collating Daten on the Frontier and the dangers ahead.
Wo und welcher Warp
The mission has no pickup system and lists warp 1 to start and warp 1 to complete. Where you actually fly depends on which Planetary missions you run. The game lists a recommended level of 62, the same as the missions around it.
Who Wants to Begin? rewards
| Belohnung | Amount |
|---|---|
| Tritanium | 5,170,000,000 |
| Raw Σ-Parsteel | 324,000 |
Completing it unlocks the next storyline mission, Developing Minds.
Where it sits in the Frontier storyline
Who Wants to Begin? comes straight after the faction talks and just before a run of station and combat steps. The missions around it:
| Mission | Ebene | Warp to complete | What you do | Belohnungen |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Why Can’t We Be Friends? | 62 | 900 | Find the USS Palomo, then choose how to respond | Depends on the choice |
| A Fool’s Hope | 62 | 900 | Meet Admiral Johnson, General Martok and Tomalak | 270,000,000 Dilithium, 8,175,000,000 Parsteel |
| Who Wants to Begin? | 62 | 1 | 5 Planetary missions, 5 Planetary datapads | 5,170,000,000 Tritanium, 324,000 Raw Σ-Parsteel |
| Developing Minds | 62 | 1 | Upgrade R&D Department to level 62 | 5,875,000,000 Tritanium, 180,000 Raw Σ-Parsteel |
| The Secret of Violence | 62 | 1 | Defeat 25 hostiles of level 61 or higher | 400 Σ-Dilithium, 104,000 Raw Σ-Parsteel |
The same pair of objectives appears earlier in the storyline as Frontier Outreach at level 61, which pays 304,878,049 Tritanium and 1,300 5★ Gemeinsame Explorer Parts. The level 62 version pays far more Tritanium.
Tips
The datapads come from Planetary missions, so keep five in reserve for the donation step rather than spending them elsewhere. Any Planetary missions count toward the first objective, so pick the quickest ones near your station.
Plan the next mission at the same time. Developing Minds asks for an R&D Department upgrade to level 62, so check what that build needs before you hand this one in. The 5.17 billion Tritanium reward lands just before it. The Raw Σ-Parsteel is covered on the Parsteel page.
The storyline first reaches the Mortican Frontier in The Frontier at level 61. Earlier chapters are on the main storyline page, and other missions by level are on the mission guide.
