The star in Endron Beta is about to go supernova, and Captain Hughes of the USS Wayans wants to rescue the pre-warp people of Xosul, against the <a href=\"https:\/\/star-trek-fleet-command.1337wiki.com\/de\/prime-directive-part-1\/\">Prime Directive<\/a> and the orders of Captain Flanagan of the USS Deveraux. You choose whether to help. It needs warp 1300 to start and to complete, has one fight on either path, and pays very different rewards depending on your choice.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Captains_Choice_objectives\"><\/span>Captain&#8217;s Choice objectives<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One shared step comes before the split:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Investigate the collapsing star.

You then carry the last evacuees to a Federation outpost, and Hughes accepts he will likely face a court martial.
