http://www.theforce.net/swtc/domino.html I will have to compare this to what is in the AoR book to see if there is parity. | |||||

Psh. I demand a Tak vs Mallios sparring match to decide which one gets to be Batman! (my money's on the Mohawk! :D) | |||||
Boarding party/Security/Army/Spec Forces can use the "Army" rankings. Pilots and and ship's personnel would use the "Navy" rankings. The Supreme Command Silos I used this link to inform me a bit at least as far as the different command silos: http://tierfoncampaign.blogspo...itary-structure.html For the most part command silos will not matter to us at all unless someone gets into a rank-pulling pissing match with someone higher up, so this can merely be informative. The below text is pulled directly from that page: Sector Command (SC): General Joba Dass (Human female). The largest branch of High Command, the job of the SecCom chief is to oversee the thousands of individual Sectors, all across the galaxy, in which the civil war is raging. The structure of the Rebellion is such that control for each Sector is largely left in the hands of the local command structure. Alliance Headquarters cannot hope to keep close tabs on all developments throughout all warzones; the best they can do is try to focus their limited resources and collective efforts in key areas, using strategic partnerships. (naval ranking) Fleet Command (f): Admiral Gial Ackbar (Mon Calamari male). The fleet command includes the collection of expensive capital ships belonging to the Alliance and thus is considered the most important element in the military. Fleet Command has its own rank structure (naval ranking). Starfighter Command (SfC): General Jan Dodonna (Human male). Starfighter Command recruits and trains pilots, assigns wings to the Fleet and to various Sector forces, and generally manages the vast number of starfighters in the Rebel Alliance inventory. (naval ranking) Support Services (SS): General Seti Nee (Gran female). Support Services provides just that, specialty personnel and equipment to support the other branches of the Alliance military hierarchy: bulk and light freighters, cooks, doctors, mechanics, and so on. (navy ranking) Intelligence (Intell): General Roan Vernan (Human male). The Intelligence arm of the Rebel military mainly gathers information on Imperial activities and military movements. To this end they recruit and manage an extensive network of spies and high tech eavesdropping and electronic surveillance assets. (army ranking) Ordnance and Supply (OaS): General Ral'Rai Muvunc (Twi'lek male). Ordnance and Supply is tasked with keeping the Fleet, Spec Force and Starfighter Commands supplied with exotic and expensive equipment. OaS is also responsible for granting and issuing Letters of Marque and Reprisal, effectively making the OaS chief the head of a rag-tag fleet of privateers composed of smugglers and mercenaries. Not everyone in the Alliance High Command approves of this aspect of the OaS mission. (army ranking) SpecForce Command (SF): General Crix Madine (Human male). SpecForce recruits and trains commandos capable of succeeding at daring and difficult missions anywhere in the galaxy.

Ya know. Cause he'll be a Master Chief. ;) | |||||
It was actually a pretty significant plot point in the novels when John-117 was placed at that rank, and how he worked with all the other Spartan candidates. On topic - do we want to have any sort of promotion ceremonies when someone jumps tiers, say going from E3 to E4? Or should we leave that to just the officer ranks? I know I'm not even E1 yet so it won't matter to me for some time. | |||||
Those ranks are as they are due to what is listed on pg 393 AoR. It lists Trooper and Senior Trooper as enlisted Rebellion Ranks, which off course, are not in modern military ranks, so I had to work things to make it all make some sense. Gunnery Sargent is a Marine Corp rank and I did not look at their ranking systems, just the army's. | |||||
| |||||
I see what you are doing. I did not notice that. OK, Gunnery Sargent it is. Ok, there ya go. How is that. This message was last edited by the player at 15:35, Wed 06 Aug 2014. | |||||

Me too, I was in the Navy. =) | |||||
I added contribution ranks and what our potential ranks would be based off that. I do not expect that this will be followed given how spread out our duties are and how motley our crew is. Some of us are officers in charge of stuff and some are enlisted. At most this may be a reference. CC Rank: The left most CC Rank column assumes that a person progresses over the entire campaign adn will advanced from enlisted to officer. IC Rank: The IC Rank column is working assuming that you advance your career as only an enlisted or only and officer. This is where the Warrant Officer ranks can really come in handy. These are nothing official mind you, but it gives us something to work with in case the GM finds it useful. Boarding party/Security/Army/Spec Forces can use the "Army" rankings. Pilots and and ship's personnel would use the "Navy" rankings.

By which I mean Luke/Han/Leia/Chewie (as a known Jedi, Luke's in kind of an odd spot, but even so...) | |||||
Of course those answers depend on era... hmmm I may take a look at that. Would definitely put things in perspective. | |||||
I do recall the Star Wars Battlefront games referring to him as 'Commander Skywalker.' By contrast, they call his dad 'Lord Vader.' This message was last edited by the player at 23:10, Wed 06 Aug 2014. | |||||
| |||||
Commander Skywalker is definitely the rank, though. | |||||
| |||||
Nah, the briefing where he was selecting his team for the assault on Endor was at the beginning, and he was addressed as general then to the best of my memory. However that was after 5, where I can't recall him being referred to by any specific rank. | |||||
1) Tor is definitely Rebel affiliated and still actively reporting to Ordinance and Supply. The "Rebel advised" element of the quartermaster position is more of the Rebels keeping tabs on the Far Orbit's supplies and acquisitions through him. 2) He would have some existing rank in Ordinance and Supply that has not been assigned by the GM yet. I'll follow up with my requisite in-character post tomorrow when I have more than a phone in a hotel room. |
