“The protecting cloak of the Empire”

The Imperial Navy is the Galactic Empire's space military force and as such the largest military branch in the whole known universe. Charged with the protection of the Empire against all those who would harm it, the Navy will use any amount of force, no matter the cost, to uphold and serve the New Order. To achieve that end the Navy can draw upon a vast array of ships, such as the fear inspiring Imperial Star Destroyer I featured on the Navy's crest. But not the equipment, but the Empire's finest officers and enlisted are what make this massive organisation great.

The mission of the Imperial Navy is to protect Imperial worlds, Imperial citizens and the New Order through:

The Imperial Navy is lead by Navy Command consisting of the Navy Commanding Officer, the Navy Executive Officer, the Navy Logistics Officer and the Navy Signals Officer. They are in direct control of the six Imperial Fleets. Each fleet is assigned to an Imperial Sector and commanded by a Fleet Commanding Officer. A fleet is usually split into two or more groups with specialised combat roles.

History of the Army

Work in progress....

Corps of the Army

The Imperial Army is divided into three Corps, namely;
Imperial Army Infantry Corps
Imperial Army Armoured Corps
Imperial Army Reconnaissance Corps

Imperial Army Infantry Corps

Role

The role of the infantry is to close with and destroy the enemy, by day or by night, in all weather conditions, and terrain.

Structure

The Infantry Corps is composed of Stormtrooper units utilizing close-combat tactics and capabilities and wielding support weaponry such as anti-armour and anti-air. The Infantry Corps is divided into companies which work within the Brigades.

Integration

Infantry Companies are the backbone and the heart of the Imperial Army. They operate as frontline combatants, engaging the enemy after the initial assault by the Armour battalions, and are of primary importance in clearing structures on an assault - or protecting structures during a defensive - after the initial battle has subsided.

Imperial Army Armoured Corps

Role

The role of armour is to defeat the enemy through the aggressive use of firepower and battlefield mobility, and provide battlefield transportation for the infantry.

Structure

The Armour Corps is composed of Light and Heavy Armour units utilizing superior firepower and speed and wielding All-Terrain Scout Transports or All-Terrain Armoured Transports as infantry transportation and weapons platforms. The Armour Corps is divided into battalions which work within the Brigades.

Integration

Armour Battalions are the legs and the fists of the Imperial Army. They are the first combatants sent into battle to deal a crushing offensive against enemy forces - or as the first line of defense against an enemy advance - in order to weaken or neutralize the enemy forces prior to infantry contact.

Imperial Army Reconnaissance Corps

Role

The role of reconnaissance is to obtain and relay timely information about the enemy and the ground, and contribute to battlefield security.

Structure

The Reconnaissance Corps is composed of Recon Lance units utilizing speed and manoeuvrability and wielding Cloud Car Combatspeeders as scouts and quick reaction forces. The Reconnaissance Corps is divided into battalions which work within the Brigades.

Integration

Recon Battalions are the eyes and the ears of the Imperial Army. They are deployed to gather intelligence prior to other units engaging a target - or as scouts to deliver intelligence on incoming enemy advances - to find potential weaknesses to exploit or strengths to negate, and are further able to react swiftly to unexpected enemy advances to maintain a light, mobile defense on multiple fronts.

1st Brigade: 'Immortals'

The 1st Brigade is tasked with defending some of the Empire's most heavily populated worlds, coordinating military efforts with the Groups of the 1st Imperial Fleet, and safeguarding the honor, rule of law, and integrity of the territories that they are responsible for. Since its inception on Year 12 Day 152, 1BDE has been under the command of Major Akai Ai, who was assigned his command when he was transferred from the 3rd Legion (where he had previously earned the rank of Command Sergeant) after earning his Officer's Commission and being promoted to the rank of 2nd Lieutenant. Under Ai's command, the 1st has been at the forefront of all manner of active duty deployments and operations, from the Planetary Audit of late Y12 and early Y13, to the celebrated Imperialization of the Ralltiir System. Most recently, the 1st Brigade participated in a service rotation to the Derra system, to keep it secure in the name of the Emperor.

The 1st Brigade shares its history and honors with the Legion of which it is a part, as well as its insignia, a Fiery Phoenix embossed over the Imperial Seal. It is said that the Immortals do not die, but simply go to Hell, where they regroup to launch a counterattack against their foes, lending the Officers and enlisted personnel of the 1st Brigade a fearsome reputation on the battlefield.

4th Brigade: 'Spectres'

The 4th Brigade is the Imperial Army unit stationed in the center of the Galaxy, and is tasked with maintaining Imperial law, order, and security in that region of space, with the assistance and cooperation of the 5th Imperial Fleet. Like the 1st Brigade, its companion unit, the 4th was established on the 152nd Day of the Year 12, following the Army Reforms. Tamarynn Farr served as the Brigade's first CO, a position which she also held with distinction for some time, until her transfer to Imperial Intelligence. Santiano Salazar subsequently took command of the 4th, until he was elevated to the position of CO of the whole 1st Legion. The third CO of the Brigade was Kol Seraph, who previously served as Executive Officer of the 1st Brigade before assuming command. Aside from his position as CO of 4BDE, Seraph also held the position of Signals Officer of the 1st Legion. After Seraph stepped down as BCO, his XO, Icarus Carinae, assumed command as 4BDE's 4th CO. The 5th and currently-highest ranking Commanding Officer of the Brigade was Brigadier General Gunther Rall, previously the Executive Officer of Army Command before adopting the mantle of Brigade Commander in Year 14. Lastly but certainly not least, the 4th's CO at present is Redme Schwarz, a veteran soldier of the Legion and the Spectres.

Tasked with forging its own identity after the Reforms of Year 12, the 4th adopted a Skull device embossed over the Imperial Seal as its unit insignia, and its motto, "DEMISE!" (pronounced de-me-say), is used as an informal greeting between Officers and enlisted soldiers in the unit, as well as a battlecry in the field. The 4th has yet to engage an enemy in battle that has not fled before their call to battle.

To see the enemy while unseen, to learn what they know with them none the wiser, until its too late... that is power. - Only a special kind of soldier has the honor of calling himself a Scout Trooper.
