The '''Third Imperial Fleet''', also known by its abbreviation as '''3IF''', is a combination of the original Fourth and Eighth Imperial Fleets after the Navy Restructuring on Day 221 of Year 12. This fleet is tasked with the protection of the Corellian Sector, in addition to defending the ideals and goals of the Empire as a whole, and enforcing the will of the Emperor. The fleet was formed under the command of Commodore [[Arya Downing]]. The original 4th and 8th Imperial fleets were re-organised into the 4th Recon Group commanded by Commander [[Galdarzz Aalon]] as GCO and Lieutenant Commander Jarek Darklighter as GXO, and the 8th Assault Group commanded by Captain [[Khaleon Hope]] as GCO and Lieutenant Commander [[Jevan Katherion]] as GXO.

It is an unfortunate fact that the proud Corellian name has long been linked in the galactic conscious to those of a less respectable nature. Be they criminals, pirates, smugglers or rebels. The combination of fierce pride and an ever independent nature often leading young Corellians astray before either trait could be channelled productively by civilised society. Unfortunately with their natural inclination towards taking and succeeding at high risk-high reward strategies Corellians also have a tendency to be remarkably more successful than most in those dangerous lines of work. Put them in their home ground, a Sector which also happens to have vast wealth passing along multiple trade routes at an astounding rate, and even the most optimistic members of standard security forces would decide to retire. That's before mentioning the rest of the galaxies criminals, rebels and other enemies of the Empire turning up for their cut of the illicit gains to be had. Whilst they may be able to run rings around more traditional forces none, however, bargain for the lengths taken by the Fourth Group of the Third Imperial fleet to protect the sectors prestigious wealth and vital Imperial supply lines.

Working with Imperial Intelligence and CorSec the Fourth Group employ their considerably naval resources with precision to effectively and efficiently dismantle criminal operations within the sector. Ensuring the many important trade clusters and powerful corporations of the sector can retain confidence in the security of the sectors hyper routes. With the Corellian Run and Corellian Trade Spine being two of the galaxies largest and most important trade routes this is no small task. Even when the most obscure routes are used to strike the Fourth Group are always ready and waiting to intercept those that attempt to use them, ensuring they will never do so again. Where the Old Republic allowed pirates and smugglers to prosper for thousands of years, the Fourth Group ensures the sectors legitimate business can continue to fuel the Imperial economy unhindered by illegal activity.

In a Galaxy divided by war maintaining the supply lines required to achieve military superiority becomes important not just for the sector itself but for the entire galaxy. As awe inspiring as the firepower of a Star Destroyer is, it takes more than technology to protect as tempting a target as military assets being shipped from Corellias many shipyards and factories. Constantly adapting their techniques the repertoire of the Fourth Group is known to stretch more than little beyond that of conventional forces. Methods described as unorthodox after success would be labelled as insane and discarded without attempt anywhere else. When you constantly outwit even the most cunning enemies of the Empire on a regular basis however, you're entitled to a little flexibility when it comes to inventive tactics. Granted that flexibility the Fourth Group can and will continue to outmanoeuvre any foe.

Introduction

The Third Imperial Fleet is composed by the 3rd group, tasked with the protection of the Tapani sector, and the 8th group, in charge of protecting the Corellian sector. It was formed after the Navy Restructuring on Day 221 of Year 12 under the command of Commodore Arya Downing by the merge of the original 4th and 8th Imperial fleets, which were re-organised into the 4th Recon Group commanded by Commander Galdarzz Aalon as GCO and Lieutenant Commander Jarek Darklighter as GXO, and the 8th Assault Group commanded by Captain Khaleon Hope as GCO and Lieutenant Commander Jevan Katherion as GXO.

The Groups of the 3rd Fleet

4th Group

Woe befell the beast that infringed on the peace of the denizens of Greater Tapani. It intended to devour that one morsel that it believed was unguarded by the Loyal. One foot in quicksand, it ignored the TIE Starfighters and quested toward its objective. Two feet in quicksand, it found a worthy adversary, a Star Destroyer! So it came on, to end this quickly... Three feet in quicksand, it found itself attacked by a Carrack Cruiser, making this unexpectedly complicated. Four feet in quicksand and doomed to perish, it found itself beset by yet another squadron of TIE Starfighters. Teamwork will prevail...

Join the Imperial Knights, the most fiercely coherent group of officers you will find in the Imperial Navy, and examine your surroundings closely. Abregado System space looks crowded to you, does it not? It certainly should! The shipyards here require vast resources if they are to realise their high capacity. Behold how the tractor beams even now gather the debris of ancient battles together so it can be utilised again for a masterful purpose. Greater Tapani could ask for no finer naval capital. From here was directed Operation Sundered Anarchy, the pacification of Loedorvia System in the Weemell Sector. Many veterans of Sundered Anarchy serve here still, but they do not rest on their laurels. Instead, the 3rd Group aggressively looks to the future in always developing their personnel, their fitness, and their expertise. Everyone is taught to watch each others' back, and this policy has helped to keep casualties lower than many other organisations, whether Navy or Army, and certainly lower than the enemies of the Empire who have the misfortune to come across our path. We shall relentlessly confront them in combat and bear down heavy fire-power to destroy them!

Our officers are known for their grasp of the lessons of history, their professional work ethic, and their reputation for tenacity. Advancement is always on offer for one who serves meritoriously in our ranks -- whether greater wealth, greater inherent personal capability, or greater official importance. The 3rd Group could be a pathway to command of the entire Imperial Navy or even the throne of the Galactic Empire. It has happened before!

8th Group

8G-Logo.png


The Eighth Group of the Third Imperial Fleet. A deadly combination of extreme firepower, the likes of which few in the Galaxy could ever hope to challenge, with the highly skilled and unpredictable pilots the Third Fleet is known for. A combination considered by many more cautious officers to be a potentially volatile mixture. Yet in the hands of seasoned commanders this potent mix results in a group capable of feats others would deem impossible. A group relentless on the offence, insurmountable in defence, respected by both friend and by foe yet whose tactics often remain a mystery to both. Though able to perform standard Imperial manoeuvres to the letter, their true capabilities are revealed in how they use their ships in a manner few would imagine possible, and even fewer can imagine how to defend against.

Responsible for preventing disruption of the Corellian sectors significant and vital industrial capacity the Eighth group is used to standing firm against the enemy. The key element in the wide array of defences preventing any harm falling to the Corellian people, their numerous shipyards or their vast network of factories. Allowing them to fuel the Imperial economy and expand the resources of the Imperial military unhindered by the criminal or rebel elements to which they are a prime target. The Eighth Group is constantly aware of the consequences to the Empire as a whole if the supply of ships and material is interrupted, or worse, co-opted by the Empires enemies. The Eighth Group is constantly at work to prevent any such occurrence.

Tasked with keeping a keen and watchful eye on the mysterious and poorly understood Centrepoint station, constantly aware of the threat its unknown power could pose if ever awoken. Prepared to take whatever action is necessary to ensure it continues to bring wealth into the sector as the hub of galactic trade it has grown to be, and only as that hub. Patrolling Eighth Group Star Destroyers, TIE fighter and TIE Bomber squadrons act as a stoic reminder to the stations occupants that the Empire extends a sheltering hand to legitimate trade. An iron fist should anyone reach too far and threaten the stability of Imperial territory.

When entrusted with the protection of a Sector so sure to demand everything even they can give being capable of achieving the impossible is the only option. For the Eighth Group it is more than simply their duty to bring a time of peace and prosperity to a sector that has seen upheaval and war for too much of its history. It has become their very nature to provide such a symbol of hope and strength that even the most fiercely independent of Corellian factions can rest easy knowing their fate is well cared for in Imperial hands. To be a symbol that every Corellian can have pride in as an example of what they can achieve in co-operation with the Empire.
