Unflinching is a Borg story mission in Star Trek Fleet Command where you help defend Klingon space. A Klingon distress signal takes you to Yadow, where a Borg ship of about 347,055 strength is waiting, and after the fight you head home. The mission starts at warp 1 and needs warp 18 to complete. The game lists a recommended level of 1, but the Borg ship is the real test. The reward is 110 3★ Explorer Parts and 125 3★ Common Refined Gas, and completing it unlocks Two Sides of the Coin.
Unflinching objectives
Three objectives with no choice split:
- Respond to the Klingon distress signal. Location: Yadow.
- Defeat the Borg ship. Location: Yadow. Enemy strength is roughly 347,055.
- Return to your Station.
It is a short mission. You answer the distress call in Yadow, fight the Borg ship there, and fly home. The Borg ship is the only combat, so the mission is really one fight with a trip on either side.
Where and what warp
The mission appears at warp 1, and completing it needs warp 18. Yadow is the only named system.
The recommended level is listed as 1. A combat ship that can beat a Borg ship of about 347,055 strength is the practical requirement.
Unflinching rewards
| Reward | Amount |
|---|---|
| 3★ Explorer Parts | 110 |
| 3★ Common Refined Gas | 125 |
Completing it unlocks the next Borg mission, Two Sides of the Coin.
Where it sits in the Borg story
Unflinching comes between The Fate of the Broken and Two Sides of the Coin. Current game data for all three:
| Mission | Warp to complete | Fight | Rewards |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Fate of the Broken | 18 | Dalen (about 293,839), on one path only | 2 One of Eleven shards |
| Unflinching | 18 | Borg ship, about 347,055 | 110 3★ Explorer Parts, 125 3★ Common Refined Gas |
| Two Sides of the Coin | 19 | Romulan Officer, about 347,055 | 866,000 Parsteel, 1 1M Parsteel Token |
The Borg ship here and the Romulan Officer in Two Sides of the Coin share the same strength, so a ship that wins in Yadow is ready for the next fight too. Two Sides of the Coin then has you rally the factions against the Borg by speaking with the Romulans and appealing to Starfleet.
A familiar reward
Unflinching pays the same 125 3★ Common Refined Gas as Behind Closed Doors, another Borg mission, and nearly the same Explorer parts (110 here against 140 there). Behind Closed Doors has the lighter fight, a Borg Probe of about 296,419.
Tips
Go in at full hull. The Borg ship is the only thing between you and the reward, and at about 347,055 it is a serious fight for this part of the story.
Save the Explorer parts for your explorer and the 3★ refined gas for building upgrades that ask for it.
Keep the same ship ready for Two Sides of the Coin, since its Romulan Officer is a fight of the same strength. More missions by level are on the mission guide.
