The game lists a recommended level of 1, it starts at warp 1 and needs warp 18 to complete, and everything away from home happens in Gowok. After clearing 15 hostiles you choose to kill Xeloc or let him go. Either way the last objective is a fight with him, and the rewards differ: Parsteel on one branch, recruit tokens on the other.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Lesson_in_Politics_objectives\"><\/span>A Lesson in Politics objectives<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The shared steps:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Meet with the Lieutenant Xeloc in Gowok.
