The Defenders of Lanasta is a level 62 Romulan mission in Star Trek Fleet Command in which you help the Reman Initiative crush local resistance in the Lanasta system. You pick it up in Lanasta and need warp 1,100 to start and to finish, and every objective stays in that one system. There are three fights. The reward is 57,500 Concentrated Latinum and 290,000 Raw Σ-Tritanium, plus 3,700 Romulan Credits and faction points. It is a combat-heavy mission with no travel once you arrive.
The Defenders of Lanasta objectives
Yurx reports that the Lanastans, a warp-capable people nobody expected in this sector, have been fighting the Reman troops since they landed. Peaceful talks have failed, and Lord Vrellok’s orders are to put the uprising down by force. The five objectives run in order, with no choice split:
- Handle the Lanastan Defense force. Location: Lanasta (enemy strength ~3,534,007,028).
- Take Vrellock to safety. Location: Lanasta.
- Destroy the Lanastan ship. Location: Lanasta (enemy strength ~3,367,690,171).
- Hunt down the fleeing Lanastan rebels. Location: Lanasta.
- Make an example of the Lanastan Leader. Location: Lanasta (enemy strength ~3,534,007,028).
The first target is a Core ship in the Lanastan fleet, while Vrellok’s vessel is leaving the capital under threat. After you escort him clear, a Lanastan captain explains that his people settled here almost two hundred years ago and reject the Romulan borders drawn over their home. He will not accept coexistence, so you destroy his ship and chase the rest of his fleet.
The last fight is against Governor Napier, who orders the Reman forces to stand down. Vrellok instead makes an example of the governor for refusing to meet his delegation. With the local government leaderless, Yurx suggests confirming control of the system, and Vrellok agrees.
Where and what warp
The mission is picked up in Lanasta and needs warp 1,100 to start and to complete. Every objective is in Lanasta, so there are no jumps between steps. The recommended level is 62, one level below the other two Lanasta missions.

Other Romulan missions from Lanasta
Lanasta hands out three Romulan missions, all at warp 1,100 and all paying 3,700 Romulan Credits with the same faction points:
| Mission | Level | Warp | Main rewards |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Defenders of Lanasta | 62 | 1,100 | 57,500 Concentrated Latinum, 290,000 Raw Σ-Tritanium |
| The Rogue | 63 | 1,100 | 390 Σ-Dilithium, 104,000 Raw Σ-Tritanium |
| Asora | 63 | 1,100 | 2,600 Σ-Tritanium, 249,000 Raw Σ-Parsteel |
The Rogue has you face a hired gun working for the Lanastan government, and Asora deals with a Rigellian mercenary in the same system, so the three form a loose set.
Tips
Bring your strongest combat ship. The three fights are listed at about 3.53, 3.37 and 3.53 billion strength, and the escort and hunt steps between them give little time to recover. Repairing between fights keeps the final battle with the governor from becoming the one that stops you.
The warp is a step above the level 62 Romulan missions from Ja’lana and Tir Duha, which sit at 1,000. If your ship reaches Lanasta, the whole mission is available with no extra range needed.
The faction points are larger than on the warp 1,000 Romulan missions: 125 million Romulan Points gained, 126 million Klingon and 189 million Federation Points lost. Those numbers move your faction reputation. The 290,000 Raw Σ-Tritanium is the bulk of the payout; see Tritanium and Latinum for how those resources are used. More on the faction is on the Romulan page, and every mission by level is on the mission guide.
