Storyline

Mission Storyline
Long Distance Call A Borg cube is usually a death sentence, but with this particular vessel weakened, we were able to win the day. Starfleet will remain on the lookout for other Borg ships.
A Tale of Forgotten Lore Lore has beamed aboard your ship, and has begun downloading important information from its computer. Bypass his security lockouts and stop him.
Our security team breached into the computer control room, forcing Lore to beam out using a personal transporter device. The ship is safe for now, and we believe Lore did not get the information he wanted.
Highwaymen We've apprehended the Ferengi responsible for robbing traders across the sector. Surprisingly even the Ferengi authorities seem incensed by this behaviour. Handing them over for prosecution may be the most diplomatic resolution to this whole affair.
A Time of Morn-ing A Lissepian vessel is pursuing a Lurian named Morn, demanding your help in returning the latinum he stole in the Lissepian Mother's Day Heist.
We successfully defused the crisis with the Lissepians, and saved Morn from an ignominious fate following the Lissepian Mother's Day Heist.
Indiscriminate Mind We were able to defeat the rogue Cardassian vessel. We've notified nearby officials that it is safe to sweep the shipping lanes for mines.
Mortals and Mayhem Q is promising great rewards to Starfleet captains willing to face his gauntlet. Are you among them?
We have survived Q's gauntlet of challenges and lived to tell the tale. Q even made it worth our while, so much so that we may attempt it again...
Death in Battle We were able to defeat the rogue Bird of Prey. This should send a message to other captains who choose might over diplomacy.
Iconian Insider Determine how the rogue archaeologist Vash is able to steal priceless artifacts without getting caught, and put a stop to it.
We discovered how Vash was able to manipulate a hidden Iconian gateway to steal ancient Debrune, Romulan, and Iconian artifacts, destroyed the gateway, and brought her to justice.
