Mission: Skirmish/Walkthrough

= Donatu System =

Power Struggle
Enter the Donatu System to find a battle already in progress. Federation Tactical Officer:  Klingon Tactical Officer: 

Defeat the Enemy Fleets
Three groups of True Way ships are engaging three groups of ships from your enemy faction. Move in for a three-sided brawl and defeat all of them. You'll have some allies to assist you in the fight.

Disable the Axon
The Axon is a Keldon-class vessel, and will be disabled rather than destroyed when defeated.

Approach the Axon
Once the Axon is disabled and you have a moment out of combat, one of your Bridge Officers will inform you of its status.

Federation Tactical Officer:  Klingon Tactical Officer: 

Board the Axon
Once all hostile foes have been defeated, you will be able to beam aboard the Axon to find out what the True Way are doing so far from Cardassian space.

= Aboard the Axon =

Head to the Bridge
Your away team beams into a heavily damaged cargo hold, with a force field sealing a hull breach in one corner. Federation Tactical Officer:  Klingon Tactical Officer: 

A Cardassian security team is waiting in ambush at the first intersection, in fact.

Defeat Cardassian Security Teams
Down the cross corridor there is an engineering room containing two Cardassian security teams.

At the far end of the room, a force field blocks your progress. You can scan the forcefield.

Federation Engineering Officer:  Klingon Tactical Officer: 

Disable Forcefield
A couple of the consoles in the room can be used to remove the force field.

Tactical Officer:

Continue to the Bridge
At the next intersection there is another Cardassian ambush waiting. Beyond the ambush you will find the mess hall.

At the mess hall you will encounter a strange blue light, and... something attacking the Cardassians.

Tactical Officer:

The Cardassians, however, are more than happy to attack you as soon as you show your face.

Investigate Strange Occurrence in Mess Hall
Once the Cardassians are defeated, you can investigate the strange, floating blue figure and what it was doing. There is a dead Cardassian lying near the exit from the room; perhaps a scan of it will yield more information.

Federation Science Officer:  Klingon Science Officer: 

Proceed onwards to the Medbay to gather the tools necessary for a more thorough investigation.

Gather Medical Tools from Medbay
As you enter the Medbay, the lights flicker again, and you catch a glimpse of another floating blue figure standing above a fallen Cardassian and doing... something.

Tactical Officer:

Time to do some investigating. Might want to start by investigating the Cardassian the blue figure was floating over.

Science Officer:

There is a medkit next to the body, but without knowing where to start, it is probably a good idea to look around a little more first.

Read Patient Records
Investigate the patient records. Perhaps something the Cardassian Chief Medical Officer recorded will serve as a clue.

Patient record: Patient 785234

Patient record: Patient 864531

Patient record: Patient 904651

Patient record: Patient 962456

Patient record: Patient 874512

Search for Unusual Energy Signatures
In the room opposite the Medbay, there are consoles that can be used to scan for unusual energy signatures.

Investigate Energy Signatures on the Bridge
Head toward the bridge. As you approach the corridor, the lights flicker again, and one of the floating blue figures floats past in front of you.

Tactical Officer:

Head to the turbolift at the end of the corridor and take it to the bridge to confront the menace.

Defeat Devidians
As you emerge from the turbolift, the lights flicker blue, and this time stay that way.

There are numerous of the floating blue aliens on the bridge, all apparently absorbing energy from the Cardassians there.

Defeat Phantasm
Once all the Devidians are defeated, the Phantasm appears to face you.

Access Bridge Console
Now that you've gotten a good look at the mysterious aliens, they can be identified.

Science Officer:

The consoles to the left of the captain's chair will allow you to access the ship's files, including the logs.

Chief Engineer's Log:

Science Officer's Log:

Return to Ship
Having gathered all the information you can, it's time to return to your vessel.

Report to Neutral Zone Contact
Return to the Neutral Zone and report your findings to your contact.

Federation Franklin Drake:  Klingon K'men: 

= Post-Completion = After completing Skirmish, you will be able to ask a question of your mission contact regarding the events of the mission.

Federation Franklin Drake: Klingon K'men:
 * What do you know about what the True Way is doing in the Neutral Zone?
 * What do you know about the True Way's plans?
