Halting the Gorn Advance (also known as Gorn Minefield) is a fleet action available for Federation players.

This mission is the Federation counterpart to the Klingon fleet action “Punch Through the Federation Blockade”.

Mission Text[ | ]

We don't know much about the Gorn, <rank>, but we have learned a little about why they're so aggressive toward other races.

According to Gorn histories, thousands of years ago the Gorn Hegemony controlled hundreds of worlds. The Gorn believe all of those planets are still theirs to rule, and that anyone who has settled there since are interlopers.

Now that the Gorn have the backing of the Klingon Empire, they've become much more active in their efforts to eject, "invaders" from planets like these. There are Gorn ships besieging a planet in the Tostig System in Argelius Sector Space, and we would like you to deal with them.

Goal[ | ]

Proceed to the Tostig system, which is in the Argelius Sector of the Regulus Sector Block, and stop a Gorn invasion force.

Objectives[ | ]

  • Freeing the Miners
    • Rescue Ships from Mines (0/10)

Notes[ | ]

  • The reward to choose one kit is bugged in the game. Do not believe the reward for the kit. This bug was reported currently to the GM's in the game, and they are aware of it. This bug appears to not give reward due to not being able to actually finish this mission. (As of February 14, 2013, this bug has been fixed. This has not been tested yet though. Source: http://sto.perfectworld.com/news/?p=819221)
  • In November 2012, the objectives and map of this mission were adapted to reflect those of its Klingon counterpart “Punch Through the Federation Blockade”, thereby reducing the required time and players.
    • This had the effect of breaking the "(daily)" wrapper mission, a bug which would not be corrected until February 2013.
  • The voice clips from Commander Burgess are taken from his dialogue in cutscenes from “The Doomsday Device”.
  • Until 2014, Chancellor J'mpok himself commanded the Kal'Ruq. Any reference to J'mpok being aboard the ship during its possible destruction has been removed in order to preserve continuity.
  • Coming in first place results in the accolade Swept Up and the following floor trophy:
