High Commander of the Lilaste Order
Standard Training
Basic Training is a six-month course designed to prepare trainees for the rigors of space travel and the discipline and decorum required of all members of the Lilaste order. Physical training, classroom learning, and simulations are all a part of this experience, with a particular emphasis on safety and emergency procedures. Topics covered include zero-gravity training, starship and station emergency procedures, fitness and nutrition, first aid, and basic small arms use.
Standard fleet formations
Armada: An Armada was an administrative formation representing all forces allocated to a specific theater of war, generally numbering between 1,000 to 5,000 warships plus support units. A High Admiral commanded it,
Fleet: A Fleet was commanded by a Fleet Admiral. It was generally composed of 3 to 6 Battle Groups numbering between 100 to 300 warships plus support units.
Battle Group: A Battle Group is commanded by an grand Admiral and consists of 2 to 4 Squadrons. Numbering between 48 to 72 warships plus support units, a Battle Group was considered to have enough force to take all but the most heavily fortified enemy strongholds.
Squadron: A Squadron was commanded by a Commodore and consisted of 3 to 4 Sections, or roughly 12 to 36 warships, plus support units. Each Section was meant to complement each other, such as a group of escorts providing a defensive screen for larger warships.
Section: A Section was usually commanded by the most senior Captain The exact role of a Section determined how many ships it contained. Large warships, such as battleships and cruisers, operated in "lines" of 3 to 4 vessels with support craft for sections made of small craft, genuinely being made up of Smaller craft, such as corvettes, and operated as "flotillas" of 1 cruiser, 2 frigates, and 3 corvettes
Generally, capital to support ratio genuinely functions as such
Per every 1 Star destroyer, there are 2 cruisers, 4 frigates, and/or 6 corvettes in its support fleet
Standard navy tactics/ Formations
With capital ships in the center, two cruisers in front around 500-800 meters away are tasked with screening corvettes and smaller ships away from the capital.
Frigates act like attack craft engaging other ships and weakening them for capital ships to come in and finish the job
Corvettes are located front, back, left-right, up and down of the capital creating a "bubble", for their weapons to attack incoming fighters.
Attack Strategies
Popping Formation.
Drak’iv Shield poppers are sent forwards in a Staggered Delta V formation to prevent crossfire. Ships fire and target large cruisers and star destroyers, weakening and disabling shields. The formation has several Foray class Corvettes protecting the aft section weak spots. Rushing through enemy formations, the remaining ships loop back to the main force.
Fighter Screen.
Fighters are spread in front of the main force. With corvette in the secondary position, with cruisers and frigates next. In the rear lays the Star destroyers with corvettes covering their aft sections. The general shape is a large rectangle/ cylinder with a large flat end which makes up the corvettes and fighters, with capital ships in the center
Crescent Pike.
Capital ships take formation at the base of the shape, and fighters swarm the fleet distracting them like flies around a horse's eye, with corvettes, frigates, and cruisers running left and right in a crescent shape. Circling and entrapping an invading fleet. Eventually, creating a closed circle.
