The Ultimate Guide to Yakuza

[Admiral Yamato]

Yakuza Ranking System:

Master Dragon (Fleet Admiral) - The head honcho here, with authority over basically everything.
May use Cruisers or Battleships

Gold Dragon (Admirals) - In charge of the individual fleets and organizing them, etc. Also responsible for arming and distributing supplies for preparation of the fleet. Reports to the MD.
Must use Cruisers

Silver Dragon (Captains) - These guys will report to the GD's in the chain of command and are in charge of maintaining and protecting their squad units. They have authority over those squadrons and can organize/assign them roles as they please. They have to be flexible and must be able to adapt to situations that arise.
Must use Cruisers

Bronze Dragon (Commanders) - Commanders are a special rank only given to members of the Shi Kotaka (Death Falcons), an elite, gunboat Special Ops team. They are of the 3rd Battle Group of the 1st Fleet, and report directly to the Admiral.
Must use Gunboats

Bronze Dragon (Lieutenants) - Reporting to SD's, lieutenants will have to command an ensign. They may also assist Captains and take control of their duties should need arise.
May use Gunboats, Freighters, or (VH)Fighters

Student Dragon (Ensign) - The fresh recruits. While at the bottom of the chain, they still play a vital role and will be treated with as much respect as any other member of Yakuza. They report to their respective commanders and perform duties with the rest of the unit with unswerving loyalty.
May use Freighters or (VH)Fighters


Additionally, Captains and Admirals are permitted to have a second ship for the same RP character (which may or may not be used in combat, the choice is yours); however, this second ship is limited to freighters, trains, transports, and any type of fighter.

*note that ship requirements/restrictions may change
