Over all I think the mission went very well, for alot of you it was your first time RPGing.
With my new rank as Captain of the Dreadnought Heavy Cruiser Deviator witch Vice Admiral NiksaVel is leting me use. Because of this I don't have to play as much now I have to teach the players who are new and keep a good game going longer. On that note I have desided to get 3 missions going at once. 1 for the players that are with NiksaVel 1 for the players who will stay on the Deviator and one for the Marines. Now I would like to give out a few promos. and say a job well done to the following people: Animosity Two SergeantAngel, Animosity Three Sergant Ice Man, Animosity Five Corporal Abaddon, Animosity Six 1st Lt. Schnapps, Animosity Nine Corporal Dertay, and last but not lest from our Marines Animosity 1 (note the number 1 insted of being spelled one) Sergeant Major
Bid Lodo. thats all for now but be looking for your next mission.
Sorry about the site it needs a good update!

All promotion requests MUST be approved by your commanding officer. I believe NiksaVel only gave you permission up to Lance Corporal. In addition, you still hold the rank of Commander, but you are a Captain (of a ship). Please review and understand the chain of command and promotion procedures as described in the Navy Manual: http://silcon.com/~bfamily/vastempire/veman-v00077.zip

According to the Manual, an offcier holding the position of Ship Captain can promote offciers to "One Below Current Rank". As Auroras is a Commander in Rank, surely he has the authority to promote people to anything up to Lt. Commander?

I think maybe I CAN post new replies, it's just that for some reason I can't see them. So if you've read a message by me 5 times over, sorry :-)

Like I said, you CAN promote someone to Lt. Commander, but you're missing the point. If all one had to do is participate in an RPG to get Lt. Commander, the chain of command would be FUBAR. You need to use common sense when it comes to promoting. PRV to Lance Corporal, Lance Corporal to Corporal, etc. When you skip ranks, it's ussally becuase you got a position promotion and the minimal rank is that.

I only gave such high promos because they have been doing alot more than just one mission I flet they earned it but I see I was wrong. Vice Admiral NiksaVel wrote this
"your ID line is:CAPT/CPT Auroras/DREAD Deviator/1stESF/RPG/NIWhat do you think? RPG instead of VEN Multiple missions .. sure if you want it YOu're the boss of the RPGsection... Sometimes we could have campaigns, so that separate storiesare actually connected in some way." I thought that ment I had the rank of Captain as well as being the captain of the ship once again im sorry I miss understude.

Well... it seems it's all my fault... I'm sorry for the typo, and I apologise for the mess it made. Sorry.

Commander Auroras, your POSITION is Ship captain (CAPT), and your RANK is Commander (CM).

So your ID line should be:

CAPT/CM Auroras/DREAD Deviator/1stESF/RPG/NI

I've been working on an Officer's Guide to help prevent these problems in the future. I've only got an outline of ideas that i am going to include, but if it helps, then it's worth it.

That would be great, as there is no guidance anywhere that I can find over what the rules are for when members should be promoted, and very little guidance about when medals should be awarded.
