Reydovan military ranks

The ranks of the Reydovan Military Body are based on the Starfleet system devised in the 2360s, but only the names are changed somewhat. The uniforms are based more on American Civil War-era officer's uniforms (with the two rows of buttons down the middle), and they are royal blue in color. A Marshal of the Reydovan Empire or a Grand Admiral may choose any style as long as it "looks military", and may also choose to wear white. Senior officers - usually above the rank of Commodore or Brigadier General, depending on the branch - may also choose to wear epaulets.

The Warmaster of the Reydovan Military Body usually holds the highest rank of the branch of service he/she is a member of. (This has also been the system with the Imperial Chancellery.) The current Warmaster is Marshal of the Reydovan Empire Jeremiah Neill.

Note: These rank images were devised by Steve Marriott, originally for the Star Trek PBeM roleplaying group Tango Fleet. Different background colors are available on his website.

The Imperial Navy[]

The Imperial Navy uses a system very similar to that of the former Soviet Union. The highest rank attainable is Grand Admiral, and only the Emperor may give this rank.

The Imperial Army[]

The ranks of the Imperial Army are based on the old style rank system of older militaries, including the military of the former United States, with one exception; the rank of Marshal of the Reydovan Empire, based on the rank Marshal of the Soviet Union. Like with the rank of Grand Admiral, only the Emperor may give this rank. There is usually only one Marshal of the Reydovan Empire at a time, but in the case of the current government (the Chancellor is an Army officer, as is the Warmaster) there may be two.

The Praetorians[]

The Reydovan Praetorian Guard is an elite corps of the Imperial Army, formerly known as the Palace Guard. They are the personal bodyguard and police force of the Imperial Family, and are stationed exclusively at the Imperial Palace. The Praetorians, despite being Army officers, answer only to the Emperor himself.
