The Kriosians is a Klingon faction mission in Star Trek Fleet Command. You interrogate a Kriosian prisoner on Rura Penthe and then root out the core of his underground insurgency. It is picked up in Gorath at warp 39 and needs warp 53 to complete. The game lists a recommended level of 1, but the Kriosian ship you have to disable is around 1.43 million strength, so that fight and the warp are the real requirements. The payout is 17,029,000 Parsteel, 1,200 Ultra Recruit Tokens and 100,000 Klingon Points.
The Kriosians objectives
There are four objectives and no choice split:
- Find the Kriosian ship’s landing zone on Vasunim. Location: Terminimurus.
- Pay the landing crew off with 50,000 Dilithium.
- Disable the Kriosian ship before it escapes. Location: Terminimurus. Enemy strength is roughly 1,426,536.
- Deliver the Kriosian rebels’ location to General Kurgah. Location: Ty’Gokor.
The first step takes you to the landing zone on Vasunim, which sits in the Terminimurus system. Once there, you pay the landing crew 50,000 Dilithium, so have that ready before you set out.
The fight comes next, still in Terminimurus. The Kriosian ship is about 1,426,536 strength and has to be disabled before it escapes. After that, the mission ends with a delivery to General Kurgah in Ty’Gokor.
Where and what warp
The mission is picked up in Gorath and needs warp 39 to start. Completing it takes warp 53, which covers the trip out to Terminimurus and back to Ty’Gokor.
The listed recommended level is 1. A ship that can reach warp 53 and beat a target at around 1.43 million strength is what the mission actually expects.
The Kriosians rewards
| Reward | Amount |
|---|---|
| Parsteel | 17,029,000 |
| Ultra Recruit Token | 1,200 |
| Klingon Credits | 500 |
| Klingon Points | 100,000 |
| Romulan Points | -124,800 |
The Romulan Points line is negative, so finishing the mission lowers your Romulan standing while raising your Klingon standing.
The Kriosians and Regroup compared
Regroup is another Klingon faction mission that can be picked up in Gorath, and its rewards follow the same pattern:
| Mission | Warp to start / complete | Fights | Main rewards | Romulan Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Kriosians | 39 / 53 | Kriosian ship, about 1,426,536 | 17,029,000 Parsteel, 1,200 Ultra Recruit Token, 500 Klingon Credits, 100,000 Klingon Points | -124,800 |
| Regroup | 39 / 39 | Lead Tribune, about 910,378, and a Corvallen warship, about 1,373,877 | 23,800,000 Parsteel, 9 8 Hour Speed Up, 500 Klingon Credits, 100,000 Klingon Points | -121,600 |
Regroup pays more Parsteel and stays at warp 39, but it has two fights. The Kriosians has a single fight and the Ultra Recruit Tokens, at the cost of a longer warp 53 trip and a 50,000 Dilithium payment.
Tips
Check your faction reputation first. Losing 124,800 Romulan Points matters if you are close to a Romulan threshold.
Stock the Dilithium before leaving Gorath. The payment step comes between the landing zone and the fight, and the mission cannot move on until it is paid.
Bring your strongest combat ship. The Kriosian ship is the only fight, and at over 1.4 million strength it decides whether your account is ready for this mission. Other faction and story missions are on the mission guide.
