    I think I might have some answers here.

    The patrols don't unlock until you are that far in the story. No romulan patrols until you are facing the romulans story wise in that system. Also, I've noticed, you have to be in the system, and sometimes, talk to them in person to get the missions or replay and not just hail them and look under available.

    I'm not sure what's up with that. I had patrol missions that unlocked as I did the story missions. But then they dropped off sometime after I hit VA. Okaww may be right about hailing them or being in the sector that the patrol is in.

    I think there is a new change to this and would love some clarification. I haven't progressed in the story much, but had my PV patrols available. I was going to start them, but now can't find them to accept!!!

    I had completed my AC patrols, but wasn't facing the Romulans yet. So what is the deal exactly?

    as you level up, they will disappear from the "available" area. You will have to find the giver in person to retrieve them.

    they are still out there. But with the new system they are not as readily available. I ran across them by accident last night. I now have them all loaded in my missions to run.

    Good point. These need to be easier to find.

    I think Cmndr Winters only gives the first few patrol Missions doesn't he?

    After that aren't they available from other officers?

    I got, and did all of the Northern Quadrant patrols not too long ago.

    Read the new F2P blog. Patrols are getting a complete rework.
    There won't be an overarching mission to explore "x" amount of systems.
    Each system will have it's own patrol mission. These will scale with level, and offer better rewards.

    Well, Winters of ESD and Adina Charles of DS9 were the only patrol givers that existed outside of the journal.
