History

The Gallic Royal Navy was formed shortly after the crippled French sleeper ship reached Ile-de-France in 84 A.S. At first, its main agenda was space exploration and searching for other sleeper ships of the former Alliance. Later, when space flights became accessible to many groups and corporations, including criminals, the Navy switched to internal security tasks, while still maintaining a large number of capital ships, and constantly researching new ways to upgrade the ships and their weaponry in case a war with other Houses ever occurred. Today, the Navy is a powerful military force that can counter any threat to the Crown, both from within Gallic borders, or from outside.

The Royal Navy has been fighting a long war with Gallic rebels known as the Council since 748 A.S. over their misguided ideas that the Royal’s policy of isolation and preparation for total war of detriment to Gallia. The war ended for a time but the rebellion that started in 794 A.S. on the planet Marne is universally considered the beginning of the Second Gallic War which has continued to this day.

The current long range goal of the Royal Navy is a war to end all wars against the other former Alliance Houses. The Royal Navy has been moving forward almost non-stop building ships, researching military technology, gathering intelligence, stealing technology, and training new recruits to make war. This ultimate goal, however, was put on hold by the Council when they managed to capture the Languedoc system, break through the mine fields there and in Lorraine, and make first contact with the other Sirius Houses. The Royal Navy is currently dealing with the threat of the rebels and does not have the resources to worry about the foreign houses until they are put down.

Zone of Operations

Burgundy

Burgundy is the seat of Royal power in the Gallic Border Worlds, and the primary defensive operating area of the Gallic Royal Navy, given its proximity to Council-controlled Champagne and its status as the second line of defense against intruders from Omicron-80.

Owned bases :

Allied bases :

Champagne

Champagne is fully controlled by the Council. The Royal Navy may occasionally send expeditions to test the defenses of Planet Marne and other installations, but generally stays clear of the system.

Dauphine

Dauphine is the primary staging ground for the Gallic Royal Navy's forces. Every day more ships arrive in the system, and the Crown plans to launch a massive assault on Languedoc within the year. Dauphine is also the sight of several major battles in the Second Gallic War, most notably Bourgon-Jallieu and The Gap, and as such significant forces are always on patrol in the system in case Council launches another attack.

Owned bases :

Allied bases :

Languedoc

The Gallic Royal Navy has been all but pushed out of Languedoc, retaining control of only the Jump Gate to Dauphine. The system is still patrolled in an effort to contain the tide of Sirius explorers coming in from Orkney, and on occasion the Navy sends a task force out to meet Council in battle and gauge the strength of their defenses.

Owned bases :

Lorraine

Lorraine is one of the two systems that contain Jump Holes from the Gallic Border Worlds to Sirius. While mostly cut off from reinforcements due to the Council takeover of Champagne, the Gallic Royal Navy does not shy away from using the jumphole from Burgundy when necessary. Defense of the system is mostly left to the Battleship Epinal, and it rarely receives patrols from the main fleet.

Ranks

  • Grand Marshall: The Grand Marshall is the supreme ruler of the Gallic Royal Navy in the King's absence.

  • Lord Marshal: The Lord Marashall is one of the greater powers in the Gallic Royal Navy. Having only the King and Grand Marshall above him, the Lord Marshall holds power over the entire Gallic Navy.

  • Marshall: A Marshall is directly responsible for the protection and military operations within one of Gallia's three regions. The Core Worlds, the Border Worlds, and Gallic-Occupied Territories. A Marshall holds great responsibility in keeping Gallia's territory safe from intruders, pirates, and terrorists, as well as all war-related activities within their region.

  • Colonel: Colonels operate directly underneath the three Marshalls, boasting control of naval operations within their designated solar system.

  • Commandant: A Commandant is in charge over a specific space station or battleship, including all naval operations within that station's zone of control. Commandants work as assistants under their system's Colonel.

  • Capitaine: A Capitaine typically leads fighter or bomber wings. They are the lowest rung of the Navy Command and ensure the orders, plans, and operations set forth by the higher ranks are carried out efficiently.

  • Lieutenant: The backbone of the Gallic Navy, Lieutenants lead small fighter or bomber squadrons. Lieutenants are the promoted from the most skilled and innovative pilots in the Navy.

  • Sous-Lieutenant: Sous-Lieutenants make up the majority of the Navy's personnel. They operate as fighter and bomber pilots or capital ship crewmen.

  • Aspirant: Aspirants are officer cadets fresh out of training and in their first term of active service in the Navy. Aspirants are evaluated by their superiors in their tasks. Those found ill-suited to the life of a soldier, or demonstrate behavioral or competency problems are rejected for officer positions and sent back for further training or enlisted positions, such as mechanics or footsoldiers in the army.
