Star Wars Zero Company Vandor mission guide
Explore Star Wars Zero Company Vandor missions, including Origin of Infection, Tel-Rea's investigation, Wasteland, Cold as the Grave, and mission limits.
The direct answer
Star Wars Zero Company Vandor is the location of Tel-Rea’s Hero mission Origin of Infection on the mission board. The objective connects Hadrix’s holocron to an early plague outbreak and asks Tel to investigate. The board also lists Ill-Gotten Gains, Cold as the Grave, Wasteland, and Unshakeable Advance as Vandor contracts.
The mission board gives titles, locations, short objectives, and some turn fields. It does not establish a complete Vandor tactical walkthrough or a confirmed full reward table. Use the live Holotable briefing for the current mission state and mark any missing map, enemy, or unlock detail To be confirmed.
Origin of Infection
Origin of Infection is listed as a Hero mission for Tel-Rea. Hadrix’s holocron contains information about an early plague outbreak on Vandor, and the board asks Tel to investigate what it may reveal about the plague’s origins. The mission board gives this entry a three-turn field.
The Hero connection should shape preparation. Check Tel-Rea’s availability and injury status before launch, then read whether she is required or simply the story focus. The current board does not confirm the exact tactical objective, the enemies on the map, the reward, or whether the three-turn field is a universal timer in every campaign.
The mission belongs to the wider Cycle loop. Operations and Missions can expire, while a story-critical mission can become obligatory after a period of time. Handle relevant conversations, healing, equipment, and Operations in The Den before launching the Vandor mission that advances the clock.

Other Vandor mission entries
Ill-Gotten Gains is an optional contract about raiders based on Vandor. The board says that the raiders have been making money by taking what is not theirs, and a client wants Zero Company to secure supplies they stole. The short description suggests a retrieval objective, but the route and extraction condition are To be confirmed.
Cold as the Grave is another optional Vandor contract. Pirates killed the wrong aristocrat during a raid, and a wealthy relative has placed a price on their heads. The board gives the story setup but does not establish the exact target, enemy composition, or reward.
Wasteland asks the squad to clear a Separatist base on Vandor after Republic artillery failed to remove it. That setup suggests a destruction or elimination objective and may require a more direct combat plan. The full objective phases, reinforcement behavior, and success screen are To be confirmed.
Unshakeable Advance appears as a prototype-related Vandor objective. The board describes the Coil testing a prototype Striker unit and asks the company to stop it before the improvement spreads. Read the active panel to determine whether the mission requires the unit only or the unit and its location.
Plan the mission from the objective
Vandor’s name does not determine the squad. An investigation can prioritize a protected Operator and a safe route to an interaction, while a base-clear mission can ask for focused damage and a full sweep. A retrieval or bounty objective may change into extraction after the target or item is secured.
Each Operator normally has three Action Points. Movement, attacks, abilities, and Overwatch use the same budget, so keep a route to cover when a target must be reached on a later turn. If the briefing shows a protected character or a final evacuation, save movement and healing for that phase.
Players do not need to defeat all enemies unless the objective explicitly requires it. That matters for a Vandor retrieval or investigation because time spent clearing a distant corner can allow a mission or Operation to expire on the campaign board. Follow the active prompt and stop fighting when it is complete.
Board labels and story context
The mission board separates the Vandor entries by role. Origin of Infection is the Tel-Rea Hero mission, while Ill-Gotten Gains, Cold as the Grave, Wasteland, and Unshakeable Advance are additional contracts. The board provides enough information to identify the content without converting each short description into a full tactical claim.
The Den, the Holotable, Operations, Tactical Missions, Intel, and Cycles form one connected campaign loop. The current Vandor details do not settle the full planet route, map layout, exact rewards, required squad, or the availability of every contract in every run. Those fields remain To be confirmed.
When Vandor appears, open the mission panel, check Tel-Rea or any other required Operator, read the objective, note the timer, and prepare the exit before deployment. That routine keeps the plague investigation and the optional contracts readable while more mission-specific details remain To be confirmed.
