Hot Cargo is a level 70 mission in Star Trek Fleet Command in which Brem of the Ferengi Consortium hires you to carry a shipment past an Orion blockade. You pick it up in Alvolea, and warp 1,550 is enough to start and to finish. Near the end you choose whether to deliver the cargo or keep it, and each choice leads to one fight at about 3.3 to 3.4 trillion strength. Both pay the same: 26,000 \u03a3-Parsteel, 7,000 \u03a3-Tritanium and 90 15 Minute \u03a3-Repair Speed Ups.<\/p>\n
Brem says there is time-sensitive business elsewhere, so you are asked to take the cargo to Oraalen through the Crossroads, where the Orions are stopping traders. The shared steps are:<\/p>\n
At the blockade, the Orion Tasim asks about Ferengi ships, and Maia claims the cargo is supplies for a Thalloran encampment. At the drop point Maia works out that the goods were stolen from the Orions, and that the blockade was set up to catch the Ferengi.<\/p>\n
Tasim followed you from the blockade and attacks once the goods are down. Brem turns out to have trailed you too, slipping through while the Orion was busy, and pays you as agreed.<\/p>\n
You head for the trade station in Ro’Antcha to sell the goods, but Brem finds you there first and tries to take the cargo back. After you disable his ship, Brem lets it go this time but warns you not to cross the Consortium again.<\/p>\n
The mission is picked up in Alvolea and needs warp 1,550 both to start and to complete. The route runs through the Crossroads to Oraalen, and the keep-the-cargo path adds a stop in Ro’Antcha. The recommended level is 70.<\/p>\n
The two choices give identical rewards:<\/p>\n
