“Sarris is the bad guy, right?”
-Jason Nesmith and Laliari, Galaxy Quest
“Yes sir, he is a very bad man indeed. He has tortured our scientists, put us to work in the gallium arsenide mines, captured our females for his own demented purposes…”
A New Galaxy-Wide Invasion has crashed into Star Trek Fleet Command
Commanders, it is time to join forces in a quest to defend our galaxy against this very bad man indeed! Sarris has declared war on this universe, and you must respond! The Sarris Invasion represents a new type of challenge for all Commanders. The invasion fleet is vast, and will require help from everyone to defeat. To best prepare you for this battle, we’ve provided this explainer on how an Invasion works:
What is a Galaxy Invasion?
Invasion is the term used to represent a threat to the entire server, in this case the Sarris Invasion. It is not just a single target to be defeated. The Sarris Invasion will be located in specific systems that are filled with Fatu Krey, the invading hostiles. There will also be Chimeras, a never before seen type of enemy known as Invading Entities!
How do you fight an Invasion? What is an Invading Entity?
The Sarris Invasion itself may not be a target but that does not mean it cannot be directly attacked! Every defeated Fatu Krey or Chimera will deal a small amount of damage to the HP of the Invasion itself. You start by defeating the Fatu Krey, which are suitable targets for Commanders of at least level 25. This will accumulate Fatu Krey Scraps, a currency that can be exchanged daily in the invasion store for Blue Particle Accelerators, which will be needed to fight the Chimera hostiles. They are intended to be fought by Commanders of at least level 40. Like armada targets, you need to have the correct items to battle, but there the similarities end, as these are not armadas.
Invading entities(hostiles) must be fought with only one ship, and there is a 10 round limit instead of the usual 100. Notably, they do not regenerate after battle. You may need to engage them more than once to defeat them. Never give up, never surrender! Get out there and fight back against Sarris!
What’s my motivation?
Fighting the Sarris Invasion and participating in the events of the month will be a rewarding endeavor. There will be a special event store for this invasion where you can buy all sorts of useful materials and enhancements, as well as exchange the Fatu Krey scraps from the invaders and the Sarris Dominion Salvage from the Chimeras for an array of beneficial rewards.
The full defeat of the invasion may also provide server-wide benefits. But stay vigilant, even if he is defeated this time, Sarris may return some day!
