« on: June 22, 2007, 06:12:19 PM »the term captain i belive used to define the person in charge of the vessel ex: the person in charge of a merchat vessel is the captain of that ship but holds no rank in the military

« on: June 22, 2007, 12:27:41 PM »it depends on their tactical knowledge and capability to comand if a captain of a patrol cruiser couldnt handle too many units because of the strain and pressure under them so they would hardly be transferred to captain of a star destroyer

« on: June 22, 2007, 04:46:22 AM »but a captain of a Carrack is no less a captain than the captain of a Star Destroyer, it is one rank - so going from captaincy of a ship to one member of another ships command staff is really a demotion.

« on: June 21, 2007, 05:13:45 PM »an acclamator is alot different than an imp star, id say second-in-command of a destroyer would be a promotion

« on: June 21, 2007, 04:00:51 PM »Was that actually the same person ? i thought there was some confusion over that, with the Pallaeon from the Clone Wars having a different eye colour to the Pallaeon with Thrawn. And the Pallaeon in the Clone Wars was a captain (of an Acclamator), while the Pallaeon with Thrawn worked his way up the command ranks of a Star Destroyer and only achieved captaincy at the Battle of Endor (when the Chimeara's former captain was killed).
