First TOS Mission Achievements

[Protoman]

Right well I've got he one for getting all the Starbases captured, but I can't seem to get the other two, mostly because I keep getting destroyed in my getaway. Is it actually even possible to complete the mission without killing anyone?

And does anyone know the best way to complete the mission?

Yep, it's possible to win this one without killing anybody, but it's quite difficult.
I recommend to try to unlock this achievment on easy (Ensign) difficulty.

What I did (on Admiral difficulty) was to try and lure one enemy ship at a time away from their patrol spot (near the three shipyards). Once a ship followed me (I was steering/commanding the Enterprise) I set full power to weapons, quickly shot down their shields and then targeted their engines and weapons sub-systems and took these out as well. Then I left that ship alone and went to pick out the next one. You might want to repair your ship and recharge your shields before heading out to take out the next ship. Once you took out all the ships near the shipyard take out the main target. Once it's shields are down and engines are destroyed it floats helplesly through space. NOW, BEFORE you tow the ship with your traktor beam make sure your ships are ALL fully repaired and the shields are all charged to max. Tow the klingon ship and after a few seconds you'll see a cut scene informing you of Klingon reinforcments. Imediately after the cut scene disengage the tractor beam and check the main map from where the klingon ships are charging you. Send your ships to meet them and take control of the Enterprise to take out the ships shields and engines one by one while they are engaged fighting your fleet. Don't forget to check your ships for repairs. On Admiral setting I got a few times close to disable enough ships to quickly get away, so I'm sure it will be no problem on easy (Ensign) difficulty. Your get-away will be a lot easier if you captured the starbases, but since you already got that achievment I would try to do it without taking over these bases. in This case you should make your get-away route through the left hand side of the main map. Just head out so that the red nebula is on your right hand side, take the ship all the way to the top of the map and head back in to the left hand side to deliver the ship to the federation starbase.

This is the first time I'm actually writing such a help/walkthrough so I hope it's not too confusing and helps you a bit.

Ah, I'll have to do that when I play back through it then. A handful of the achievements I've not been able to do.
