Codex Entry

Missions

Every order you can give a fleet, and what it's good for.

Peaceful missions

Move

Relocate a fleet between your systems — reposition, regroup, or park ships where you’ll need them next.

Transport

Haul resources between your systems. Cargo ships carry the load; bring enough hold space for the shipment.

Explore

Send a probe to an uncharted star. It charts the system for your map — and exploration crews regularly bring home a little something extra. The unknown pays.

Survey

A Research Ship charts every orbit of a system in detail — what bodies are there and what they’re worth. Required before you can settle.

Expedition

Push into deep space beyond the star lanes. Expeditions can strike it rich — or run into trouble. Higher expedition tech means better hauls and safer runs.

Colonize

Land a Colony Ship on a planet. Your first colony in a system claims the whole system for you.

Build Station

Send a Colony Ship to an asteroid belt or empty orbit to construct a station — belts and empty orbits are just as developable as planets.

Trade

Haul goods to a trade port and sell them for credits. Longer routes pay a distance premium.

Covert & combat missions

Spy

An Espionage Probe slips into a system and reports what’s stationed there. Scout before you commit to a fight.

Attack

Assault a hostile system. Bring real firepower: strong defenders will make you pay for an under-planned attack. Spy first, then strike.

Mission rules

  • You dispatch from a system you own; each mission needs the right ships (the mission panel tells you what’s missing).
  • Fleets travel along hyperlanes — the route, travel time and fuel cost are shown before you confirm.
  • Fuel (aetherium) is paid up-front from the origin system’s stockpile.

While in flight

  • A fleet is stationed, moving or recalling.
  • You can recall a moving fleet at any time; it returns the way it came.
  • Every mission files a report in your inbox when it resolves — the inbox is your morning briefing.
Tip·Always keep something flying
Idle fleets earn nothing. A cheap probe on a long explore run costs almost nothing and keeps discoveries — and the occasional windfall — trickling in while you build.
