Star Trek Fleet Command alliance guide — Help, Armadas, Starbases and events

Choose activity fit over leaderboard rank

Ask when the alliance runs Armadas, which time zone it uses and what daily participation it expects. A smaller group active during your normal hours provides more Help and group opportunities than a powerful alliance that plays while you are away.

Alliance Help turns activity into time

Request Help before using speedups on eligible buildings and research, and return Help whenever the indicator appears. This small routine benefits every member without consuming the resources reserved for personal Operations prerequisites.

Armadas require preparation

Confirm the target type, launch time, travel time, power request and available slots. Repair the correct ship, equip a target-specific crew and arrive before the timer. After combat, read the report and decide whether survival, damage or a missing mechanic constrained the group.

Different Armada types have different directives, access and mechanics. Never assume one crew or participation rule applies to all of them.

Alliance Starbase and Territory need a shared plan

Contribute to Starbase or Territory goals after understanding what the next alliance unlock provides and what personal progression needs the same resource. Clear priorities prevent donations from becoming invisible pressure on every member.

Share coordinates, target levels and deadlines. Good alliance communication tells commanders why an action matters, not only that a timer is running.

Update 95 brings two tournament runs

Scopely schedules Alliance Tournaments for September 28–October 3 and October 9–14, with the second overlapping Infinite Incursions on October 10. Both runs use the same tasks, so the first becomes practical preparation for the second.

Discuss participation before the event, preserve relevant resources and decide how the alliance will handle the overlap. The strongest group is one whose expectations remain clear and realistic for its members.
