As with any Military organization, rank increases with experience and the tested ability of the men in question. In days past, a soldier was required to meet certain specific criteria for a promotion. A certain number of missions, or a successful command post, as some examples. In modern times, the Galactic Alliance Military promotes based on several fronts. Merit, Performance, Duty. While these may sound like the same virtues held in high regard in the past, they are noted across a broader spectrum.
While combat missions were once required to be promoted, this is no longer the case, allowing non-combatant members of the Alliance Military, such as research, development and production officers more accessibility to the promotions board. Key performance indicators are generally similar across all ranks, however the higher up the chain of command a soldier goes, the more he must display leadership and tactical prowess.
Some key questions to ask regarding your soldier:
- Does your soldier operate using the assigned equipment and uniform? The alliance has spent hundreds of billions of credits on gathering the best equipment for you to keep you safe, and efficient in combat.
- Does your trooper follow military protocol when dealing with their seniors, peers, and subordinates? A key aspect of proper structure is recognising the hierarchy and adherence to military customs of courtesy. More important than that, though, is treating fellow servicemembers with due respect.
- Has your trooper undergone any additional training? This needs to be role-played. Lower enlisted are expected to merely learn their jobs, while their seniors need to know leadership as well as the jobs of those around them.
- Has your trooper partaken in any missions? They can be Faction-created or player-created missions and need not be combat, but you must have engaged in a mission for the benefit of the Galactic Alliance to get promoted.
If your soldier has evidence of demonstrating his worthiness for promotion, you are welcome to post your request for promotion in the following format. If your soldier does not qualify, please make appropriate arrangements.
