In-character news and updates from all over the Star Army universe!
Kyoto, Yamatai--The Star Army announced in their press briefing today that the role of historic military base Fort Victory, also nicknamed “Boot Camp Alpha," will be changing its core functions from primarily being a basic training center for new Star Army recruits and clones to a headquarters for the Star Army Reserve as well as a central regional reserve center. After the end of the Kuvexian War in YE 43, the recovering Star Army began a large scale reorganization of fleets and personnel to switch to a peace-time configuration and to make updates that were not feasible in the midst of conflict. Many of its most experienced soldiers had been killed off forever in the Third Battle Of Nataria or were leaving the Star Army. The Star Army...
Ketsurui no Iori, Yamatai--Some of the Star Army's oldest field foods will soon no longer be on the menu. Ketsurui Fleet Yards announced that it was halting production of the Type 29 Field Rations. The rations came in canned and vaccuum-packed varieties and had a wide range of available foods, but have been increasingly disused due to the advent of newer ration types like the simpler Type 30 Field Station, The old-school Type 31 Field Rations, and the newer Type 38 Field Ration, which includes a chemical heater. "Our focus has always been on starships and starship accessories," said KFY spokeperson Han Eun-hwa. "Making rations to put on ships was a tangent that put us in the complex food industry, which is not our area of interest. We...
Kyoto, Yamatai--Star Army of Yamatai commander Taisho Ketsurui Yui today gave a regular update to the Senate today regarding the Star Army's current status and future plans. Among these was a new key item of interest for the Star Army: Moving beyond the Kikyo Sector to the wider Kagami Galaxy. With the Kuvexian War behind, the Star Army plans to reinvest some of its strength into long-range expeditions to previously-unexplored deep space and gather information that might eventually help expand the Empire with new colonies. "The Kuvexian threat showed that Yamatai can't just turtle up waiting around for the next threat to arrive. It's critical to imperial security to know what is out there." In addition to the Star Army's six remaining...
4月 YE 43 Kyoto, Yamatai--This week, Taisho Ketsurui-Shinjuku Hanako announced in per personnel briefing that the Star Army of Yamatai would be phasing out its warrant officer ranks (Santo Juni, Nito Juni, and Itto Juni). "As the Star Army continues to mature, we found that these ranks are redundant at best and confusing at worst. Additionally, in the past there have been irregularities where soldiers were promoted to warrant officer ranks from the maximum enlisted ranks and obsolete traditions such as giving warrant officer ranks to Ketsurui Samurai, who are no longer part of the Star Army of Yamatai, or to members of SAINT. As occupational specialties have been refined and maximum and minimum ranks were clarified, we found most...
4月 YE 43 Kyoto, Yamatai-- As originally announced in YE 38, the Star Army is continuing with its fleet consolidation plan, which reduces overhead by merging its smaller fleets into larger, more flexible ones. Last month it disbanded the Ninth Fleet and this month the process continues with the disbanding of the Eighth Fleet. In the monthly press conference, Star Army Taisho Ketsurui Yui told SANDRA that the plan is to merge Eighth Fleet's assets and personnel into Third Fleet, which shares operational territory in the Samurai Sector. Taisho Shizuka Endo will take command of the merged fleet while the old Third Fleet admiral, Taisho Hokusai Akiyo, is expected to retire, along with the Ninth's former admiral, Taisho Suigetsu Kyōku...
