Ghosts is a Romulan mission in Star Trek Fleet Command about an unknown enemy raiding Romulan supply lines along the Neutral Zone. You find the attacker’s signal in Yadalla, destroy an Independent Mercenary there, then disable and capture a Mercenary Interceptor in Nekosa. The mission is picked up in Romii and needs warp 40 to start and finish. The reward is 3,276,000 Tritanium, 30 30 Minute Repair Speed Ups and 100,000 Romulan Points, with a Federation reputation loss.
Ghosts objectives
There are three objectives and no choice split:
- Find the elusive attacker’s signal. Location: Yadalla.
- Destroy the Independent Mercenary. Location: Yadalla (enemy strength about 1,373,877).
- Disable and capture the Mercenary Interceptor. Location: Nekosa (enemy strength about 2,104,711).
The signal leads you to Yadalla, where the first fight is an Independent Mercenary at roughly 1.37 million strength. The second fight, in Nekosa, is noticeably harder: the Mercenary Interceptor is listed at about 2.1 million. Disabling and capturing it completes the mission.
Where and what warp
You accept Ghosts in Romii. Warp 40 is needed to start and to complete, and the route is Romii to Yadalla, then on to Nekosa.
The game lists a recommended level of 1. Warp 40 and two fights, the second above 2 million strength, are the actual requirements.
Ghosts rewards
| Reward | Amount |
|---|---|
| Tritanium | 3,276,000 |
| 30 Minute Repair Speed Up | 30 |
| Romulan Credits | 500 |
| Romulan Points | 100,000 |
| Federation Points | -96,000 |
The thirty 30 Minute Repair Speed Ups add up to 15 hours of repair time, handy after two tough fights.
Ghosts and Genetic Sequencing compared
Genetic Sequencing is another warp 40 Romulan-side mission with a similar reputation line.
| Mission | Warp to complete | Fights | Main rewards | Federation Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ghosts | 40 | Two, about 1.37 and 2.1 million | 3,276,000 Tritanium, 30 30 Minute Repair Speed Ups | -96,000 |
| Genetic Sequencing | 40 | One, about 1.16 million | 16,660,000 Parsteel, 500 Romulan Recruit Tokens | -91,200 |
Both pay 100,000 Romulan Points and 500 Romulan Credits. Ghosts has the harder combat, while Genetic Sequencing pays more in raw resources.
Tips
Repair between Yadalla and Nekosa. The Mercenary Interceptor is about 50 percent stronger than the first target, and you reach it straight after the first fight.
Use your strongest combat ship. With a target above 2 million strength, this is not a mission for a mid-range hull.
Only take Ghosts if Romulan standing is your aim, since it costs 96,000 Federation Points. For more Romulan missions around warp 40, see the STFC mission guide.
