There are nearly infinite permutations of these types of quests, but they are all based on certain types of quests, which are explained in the following sections.įlotsam is defined as wreckage/floating debris of a ship or cargo. After you complete the task you get your reward and the quest is finished. Many quests consist of performing just one task for someone. Declining the quest is sometimes good to do in such cases.

When first approached with the quest, simply click the red X if you don't wish to do the quest. Note that you can choose to accept or decline every quest. The main campaign has its own set of static quests, listed on each campaign chapter page. These quests only occur when playing scenarios and continuous games.
