Oh Btw since I was thinking about how we might categorize ships in our new small solar empire. And I've got an idea of how we might want to organize it.
My idea is to have ships be categorized more by their personnel rather than size. Though there would also be size limits such as "Corvette can't be more than 400 meters" But generally it is about people rather than size.
My idea is that a captain has a rank depending on their crew size, and gains different titles depending on said crew size.
So, the titles might go like this.
Jarl - 1 to 50 people. This is just the leader of a ship. Fighter pilots do not count as they are seen as extensions of their carrier.
Jarl Captain - 50 to 250 people. This is where most corvettes would lay around.
Jarl Prefect - 250 to 500 people. Most destroyers and Cruiser Jarls would be around this number.
High Jarl - 500 to 1000 people. This is heavy cruiser and small battleship territory.
Lord Jarl - 1000+ people. This is for anything equal to or above a battleship in size.
Then Admirals would be their own title. Like:
Admiral - 1 fleet.
Admiral Superior - 1 to 10 fleets with individual admirals under them.
High admiral - 1 to 10 admiral superiors under their command.
Grand admiral - 1 to 10 high admirals under their command
Lord Admiral - highest-ranking admiral. And the legal liege of all military fleets, whose word is only second to the emperor and the Prince/Princess.
I know I am thinking way too far into the future. But can't hurt, right?
what do you Anons think?
