Conflagration - "...Technological proficiency was usually a key to winning battles in space"

The Neomorph Navy is a branch of the Neomorph armed forces specialising in space-based operations and engagements.

Origin

Nobody besides the Neomorphs knows the truth of why they fled their own galaxy and how they precisely arrived in the Burning Suns. The same mystery surrounds their fleet's origin.

Military doctrine

The Neomorphs, while proficient in shipbuilding and FTL engine technology, had not amassed any significant degree of combat experience when they arrived in the Burning Suns galaxy. A peaceful race, their lack of military technology and tactics contributed significantly to their decision to flee.

Their lack of interest in military supremacy continued throughout the first few decades of their settlement. It was not until the threat of leviathan Giant aggression became too serious to ignore that they turned to Kiith Kohath for assistance, installing him as Fleet Admiral to train their crews in military discipline and develop doctrines based on their technological superiority. Under his stringent tutelage, the neomorph navy has become a force to be reckoned with.

Neomorph ships are by default lightly armed and expensive, but what they lack in firepower they make up for in technology. To say that neomorph engine technology is highly sought after on the intergalactic market would be a severe understatement. Neomorph engine tech surpasses any other race's when it comes to speed, maneuverability and precision, advantages that are only enhanced when ships so equpped are crewed by Neomorph specialists with incredible reflexes.

Neomorph fleet doctrine has been developed around their very specialized ships, which means that all fleets have a very precise purpose, and are eminently equipped for their specific roles.

With the Neomorphs' superior FTL technology it is also possible for them to mobilize their fleets very quickly and execute highly complex operations depending on specific mission requirements.

Neomorph Polity Defence Fleets
The Fleets are deployed solely for protection. With their high mobility it is not deemed necessary to have a fleet defence in each system.

Neomorph Polity Enforcement Fleets
These fleets are equipped for heavy engagements such as eliminating rebellions or direct space combat.

Neomorph Polity Strike Fleets
The Strike fleets were established immediately after the Mendillo Conflict broke out, for the purpose of carrying out pin-point strikes deep within enemy territory. These fleets have not yet been deployed in active operations.

Navy ranks


Neomorph ranks Champion ranks
Neomorphs have few ranks, due to most personnel having very specialized positions that do not require extensive hierarchical oversight. Since the Champions work in close collaboration but within their own caste, they have developed a similar but separate rank structure.
Fleet Admiral Fleet Champion
Captain Champion's Aide
Commander Champion's 2nd Aide
Staff Specialist Staff Specialist
Specialist Specialist
Crewman Warrior
