Commanders,
Alliance Tournaments are continuing to evolve, and the next iteration on September 28 brings a larger refresh based on your feedback.
This run introduces some significant changes to the Task experience, with a focus on giving Alliances more options for how they contribute and making it easier to communicate, coordinate, and work together throughout each Tournament.
More Tasks and More Ways to Score
One of the biggest changes you’ll notice is the increased variety of Tasks available.
We’ve added a wide range of new Tasks across every Operations level, giving players more ways to score than ever before.
Tasks are also more consistent across Operations ranges. Requirements may scale with Operations level, but Alliance members across different Ops ranges will now see more similar objectives. This should make it easier to talk about Tasks, share strategies, and coordinate with the rest of your Alliance.
Legacy Tasks Return
You may also notice some familiar Tasks making their return!
Uncommon Tasks with a gold border are Legacy Tasks that we’ve brought back from previous Alliance Tournament runs.
These Legacy Tasks will stick around for several upcoming runs, giving Alliances some familiar favorites alongside all the new Tasks. As we continue adding and improving Tasks in future runs, we eventually plan to phase out these Legacy Tasks.
For now, enjoy seeing some old favorites back in the rotation including:
- Acquire 7,000 Galactic Recruit Tokens (Ops 10+)
- Acquire 1,500 Uncommon Skill Points (Ops 10+)
- Acquire 6,000 Uncommon Ex-Borg Credits (Ops 40+)
- Acquire 15,000 Temporal Disruptors (Ops 30+)
- Acquire 500 Epic Dominion Solo Directives (Ops 34+)
- Acquire 55,000 Forbidden Tech Protomatter (Ops 10+)
Legendary Acquire Tasks
As the game’s economy continues to evolve, we’re reevaluating some Task requirements to make sure they remain aligned with the current game experience, starting with the G6 and G7 Material Acquire Tasks.
You may see these requirements adjusted over the next few Alliance Tournament runs as we review the results and continue refining the values.
Alliance Tournament Fixes
We’ve also addressed several issues that impacted previous runs of Alliance Tournaments, including:
- Empty Task boxes appearing.
- Duplicate Tasks appearing.
- Some Tasks changing rarity after a Reroll.

This refresh is a major step for Alliance Tournaments, and your feedback will help us decide where we go next.

Good luck, Commanders!
