Galactic Alliance Rank Advancement and reward system

[Derric Starr]

This is a work in progress.

From the desk of the Chief of State OOCly speaking the Faction Leader. The following information is in regard to In Character rank and advancement as well as incentive rewards for raising through the ranks of the Galactic Alliance Military. All rank advancements and incentives are subject to review and approval by the Chief of State (Faction Leader.)

All new members of the Galactic Alliance wishng to join the Military start off as enlisted members as a simple Recruit of enlisted rank, unless the Faction Leader and a majority of the command rank Player Character officers ranks C1-C5 vote in favor of an exception based mainly on Sithlore history of the Player Character seeking admission into the Galactic Alliance Military.


Advancement through the Enlisted ranks

An enlisted rank between E1-E4 can be assigned to a new recruit who completes a training thread supervised by a PC Officer of the Galactic Alliance or the Faction Leader. This training thread is in the form of a bootcamp themed thread, in which the recruit undergoes basic training situations. Upon completion of the thread the recruit will be given a rank between E1 and E4 based on the events of their bootcamp thread, conduct, as well as over all involvement and activity In Character on Sithlore. If recruit does not participate in a bootcamp thread they remain a recruit and must follow the regular advancement process outlined below. Completing a Bootcamp thread does not guarantee additional ranks beyond E1, likewise Officer Traing Thread completion doesn't guarantee additional ranks beyond O1.

Upon completion of a bootcamp thread the supervising member may recommend a new recruit for Officer Training. The Faction Leader will then review the thread and make a decision whether or not to offer the recruit an option to advance into an Officer rank using a method similar to that used for deciding Strong with the Force for Force Users.
