Whiterapids, the right arm of the Federation. They stand proud as the first proper federation military. They’re currently the main military force combating and defending against the Syndicate. Each piece of Whiterapids functions like a well oiled machine to do the most with as little as possible, a necessary act, due to it's hopelessly tiny budget. Whiterapids continues to prove themselves to be extraordinarily clever with resource management and tactics, always using the cutting edge of experimental technology to keep the enemy on their toes.

# The Captain may not change the alert level to circumvent any laws or Department Standard Operating Procedure Guidelines. The alert level must always be set to the appropriate level.
 
# The Captain is subject to Space Law.
 
# The Captain is not permitted to perform regular Security duty. However, they may still assist Security if they see a crime being committed.
 
# If a department lacks a Head of Staff, the Captain should make reasonable efforts to appoint an Acting Head of Staff, if there are available personnel to fill the position.
 
# The Captain may only promote personnel to an Acting Head of Staff position if there is no assigned Head of Staff associated with the department. Said Acting Head of Staff must be a member of the department they are to lead with the exception of cases where none are available. When this is the case a crewmember from another department may be appointed to the position, under the condition they resign when a more suitable candidate becomes available.
 
# The Captain may not fire or demote any Head of Staff without reasonable justification (ie: incompetency, criminal activity, repeatedly breaking Department Standard Operating Procedure, or otherwise any action that endangers/compromises #the ship and/or crew) or during an engagement with hostile forces.
 
# The Captain must have the approval of at least two Heads of Staff to modify the AI’s lawset. The Captain must order the AI to state their new laws immediately after uploading them. This Guideline is null if the ship lacks two Heads of Staff or if the change is merely to reset the AIs laws.

The following page is currently in the process of being created, is undergoing a major structural rework and/or is being moved.
The reason for this is: "This is my personal sandbox, all information contained herein may be wildly inaccurate."


Whiterapids

Introduction[edit | edit source]

Whiterapids, the right arm of the Federation. They stand proud as the first proper federation military. They’re currently the main military force combating and defending against the Syndicate. Each piece of Whiterapids functions like a well oiled machine to do the most with as little as possible, a necessary act, due to it's hopelessly tiny budget. Whiterapids continues to prove themselves to be extraordinarily clever with resource management and tactics, always using the cutting edge of experimental technology to keep the enemy on their toes.


Organization[edit | edit source]

Whiterapids is organized in a roughly branch-like structure, mimicking Nanotrasen's makeup in principle.

  • Grand admirals are part of Strategic command, as are generals(though generals are still the same rank as normal admirals, don't let them tell you otherwise.)
  • Fleet admirals are primarily stationed in fleet command, where they control the navy directly, or through normal admirals.
  • Normal admirals are wherever they are assigned to, mostly this will be in controlling Battle-groups or small fleets, though they are also known to hold temporary control over planets and colonies.


Strategic Command[edit | edit source]

At the very top, is a semi-independent military tribunal called 'Strategic Command', staffed by anyone including company reps, the council of grand admirals, generals, centcom advisors and officials, etc. They are the cream of the crop, and are the ultimate deciders when it comes to Doctrine, Budget, Strategy, etc. They are in subordination to, and in direct contact with, central command, and often get their priorities dictated by them.

Fleet Command[edit | edit source]

A loose conglomerate of all admirals barring grand, in direct contact with the supply corps and personnel bureau so as to facilitate rapid resource reallocation. These are the main handy-men of the whiterapids navy. They are subdevided in 3 rough groups:

  • Whiterapids QRF; The 'quick response fleets' are allowed access to EAS, and the ability to go about their missions however they want for maximum flexibility. They are often single highly specialized ships that receive their orders directly from fleet/strategic command. To prevent loss of these crews, QRF uses a newly developed technique of making mass-backups regularly, and cloning them whenever they go down. A fact that has resulted in some VERY experienced crews, that are able to in some cases, staff entire ships with less than five people.
  • Whiterapids Attack Division; Here we find those fleets that are constantly on the offensive, often being recalled to change targets or refit their ships.
  • Whiterapids Defense Division; The saving grace, the defensive division is in charge of maintaining our front lines even if the attack and QRF divisions are out spearheading some insane offensive.

Supply Corps[edit | edit source]

The logistical center point of Whiterapids. In charge of keeping everyone well fed and ships well maintained.

Bureau of Personnel[edit | edit source]

Sentient resources, in effect. Handling all staffing across all of Whiterapids. In constant headache over QRF's propensity for mass-cloning, which muddles up staff records tremendously.


History[edit | edit source]

Whiterapids was formed in response to the beginning of the second syndicate war. Solgov was not interested in fighting what amounts to a long war of attrition, and brought up the creation of a federation-wide naval force. Though their initial budget was less than stellar, Nanotrasen decided that it would be a great way to get their hands on their own navy, and discreetly flooded Whiterapids with bribes, personnel, resources, and money. This has resulted in a sort of split-allegiance of Whiterapids, where Solgov is getting concerned that Nanotrasen may be trying to bypass the regulations keeping them from building their own navy to overthrow them.

Since then, Whiterapids has matured, and is now steadily on-track to becoming somewhat of a regional power player. To NT's delight.

Relations[edit | edit source]

As a Federation-Formed institution, Whiterapids does its best to maintain good relations with all members of the federation, alien or not. Though there are still some old fashioned traditions related to Human-only admiralty, anyone from anywhere can occupy lower positions such as interns or any lower branch of Whiterapids itself such as Supply Corps or the Bureau of Personnel. They will hire anyone willing, and do their best to convince the unwilling otherwise.
