Chatcaavan Navy

Pretty obviously going to need a page to describe how the Navy works, since I went into it in Only the Open (Command, Logistics, the Admiral-Offense position, etc.) Also need something about the system lord defense fleets somewhere.

Administration

The Empire is a sphere divided roughly into quadrants, and each quadrant has a Command, who sees to the fight there, and a Logistics, who makes sure Command has something to fight with. [1]

Logistics

Coordinating the movements of those fleets was the province of the Logistics males, one of whom sat in the central office of each apex system, and Logistics-East had shouldered the greatest load of the four, thanks to the size of the Eastern base. [2]

Spheres

East

As the central hub for the entire eastern quadrant of the Empire—the most industrialized and developed quadrant—the Apex-East system is the home of the Navy's oldest, largest, and busiest naval installation, Naval-East. The single habitable world, while technically in the possession of a system lord, was functionally a naval stronghold after years of close relations with the base. The orbital station and moonbase there provided training and extra factory capacity, and the world itself served as an idyllic refuge for overworked officers in need of fresh food and a sky to fly in. [2]

Naval Reserve

Ships

Most Chatcaavan Navy ships are carriers for small single-person fighters. They are accompanied by supporting screens, and if necessary, a flagship.[2]

Use a yellow-green blinky light for emergency lighting.

Uniforms

Normal Duty Uniform

Shipboard uniforms (for everyday use) consist of flexible tights tucked into boots, with long-sleeved tunics that seal on the side of the body, over the wings. When preparing for or anticipating action, personnel change into body armor: versions of jumpsuits appropriate to their function.
