Flashpoint is the name of two Star Trek Fleet Command missions about Independent colonies caught in other people’s wars. The first sends you to Coridan II after a Klingon war fleet hits a peaceful colony, needs warp 13 and pays 2 Koth shards and eight 30 Minute Speed Ups. The second has you pick a side between Independent colonists and the Osaarians near Sufiday, needs warp 18 and pays 100,000 Parsteel plus XP. Both list a recommended level of 1.
Flashpoint objectives
The Coridan version has four objectives and no choice split:
- Travel to the new colony on Coridan II. Location: Coridan.
- Rebuild the power generator with 2,000 Tritanium.
- Destroy 3 enemies of Level 15 or higher.
- Check in on the colony on Kitop. Location: Kaus Australis.
After reaching Coridan II, you spend 2,000 Tritanium to rebuild the colony’s power generator. The combat step asks for three kills against enemies of level 15 or higher, with no system attached. The mission closes with a check-in on the colony on Kitop, in Kaus Australis.
Where and what warp
This version can be picked up in any of nine systems: Ora Leraa, Bharani, Azha, Opla, Pune, Kaus Australis, Kepler-018, Eizeb or Jishui. Warp 13 is needed to start and to complete. The game lists a recommended level of 1; warp 13, 2,000 Tritanium and three level 15 or higher kills are what really count.
Flashpoint rewards
| Reward | Amount |
|---|---|
| Koth shards | 2 |

Flashpoint at other levels
The second Flashpoint is a separate story mission in a chain, also listed at level 1. It starts at warp 1, needs warp 18 to complete and ends in a choice between two sides.
| Recommended level | Systems | Warp to complete | Rewards |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 (Coridan version) | Coridan, Kaus Australis | 13 | 2 Koth shards, 8 30 Minute Speed Ups |
| 1 (Osaarian version) | Sufiday, Enthra | 18 | 100,000 Parsteel plus 18,000 Officer XP or 2,500 Ship XP, by choice |
The Osaarian version
You check in with the colonists on Leduk, in the Sufiday system, then side with the locals or the outlaws.
- Help the Osaarians destroy the Independent colony’s ship: destroy the colony’s Interceptor in Enthra (enemy strength about 40,602). Rewards: 100,000 Parsteel and 18,000 Officer XP.
- Protect the colonists and attack the hostiles: destroy 10 hostiles of level 25 or higher. Rewards: 100,000 Parsteel and 2,500 Ship XP.
This version comes after Defensive Upgrades and unlocks Seller’s Market, where you acquire a rare ancient artifact from Toryn.
Tips
For the Coridan version, have 2,000 Tritanium ready before you arrive. The generator step comes before the combat, and the mission waits on it.
In the Osaarian version, the choice is between one fight and a hostile grind. Siding with the Osaarians means a single target at about 40,602 strength and pays 18,000 Officer XP; protecting the colonists means ten kills at level 25 or higher and pays 2,500 Ship XP. Both add the same 100,000 Parsteel. For every other mission by level, see the STFC mission guide.
