>>5845708>Implement a retirement scheme rewarding number of decades served and instituting periodic parades.How many years do people live? 5 decades of service and your family is set for life, including grandchildren.
>Create a new set of medals and rewards for exceptional service in battle. The current system is too arbitary and informal.>Fly your own Heinrich coat-of-arms. The old Vonduul insignia, an openhanded golden gauntlet on a black field, is gone, but nothing has replaced it.I've always like this flag, but not everyone does.
>Grant the most loyal and competent of your military officers formal nobility, to reward their contributions.First to the Rausch, so they can marry into our family.
>Make a new uniform and distribute it, to separate your dynasty from the old, now obsolete customs.>Create a distinct royal guard drawn from your most dedicated and proven men rather than rely on the army directly.>Sell off old equipment to private collectors after so many years of service and reinvest into new equipment and armamentsNo point in keeping old equipment if the new stuff works better and costs less to maintain. Maybe open a museum for historic prosperity.
>Implement a stricter record keeping and communications systemHave to keep them honest. Spymasters and assassins are one thing, but the military shouldn't have too many secrets. Wouldn't want a rebellion to happen.
>Have noble houses send a least one heir apparent until retirement and a quota of men directly proportional to their relative strength/wealth serve in the military They probably already do and feel it's an honor to serve the empire, but maybe make it even more official.
>Revise the training programs for bigger, faster, stronger, smarter troops better able to deal with space warfare.>Open a new military academy eligible to any Empire citizenBetter stock of troops for future campaigns
>Allow more entries for engine systems, ship schematics, and equipment from the private and public sector to earn investment opportunities.We probably already have dedicated scientists working on equipment, but some guy in his shed always makes the best stuff.
