Battlestations & Sectors

The Bridge is the most important sector of any Imperial Star Destroyer and should always be manned by a Supervisory Officer, if not by Naval Command. If you see a member of Naval Command, do not traverse the Command Deck and man the Bridge. The highest ranking Naval Non-Commissioned Officer+ is expected to assume Deck Command during all operations, delegating duties to those in Pits and utilizing radio to receive sector status reports.

DEFCON 4/5 - Naval personnel assigned to the Bridge Pits during DEFCON 4/5 are expected to perform sector scans, check supply availability, check ammunition, and perform system diagnostics/repairs.

DEFCON 2/3 - Naval personnel assigned to the Bridge Pits during DEFCON 2/3 are expected to perform immediate checks on the shield generators, engine core, hull, life support systems, and weapons systems.

Should these systems fail or malfunction, personnel must send repair droids or a Regimental Engineer to repair the damaged system/console. Once dispatching repair droids or engineers, the Naval personnel must successfully /roll to determine the effectiveness of the repair. For example, if the Turbolaser was functioning at 27% and you rolled a 45. The Turbolaser is now functioning at 72% capacity because 27 + 45 = 72.

If a Chief Petty Officer is on the bridge deck, they must issue tasks should a combat situation occur.

Air Traffic Control is the second most important sector of the ISD and is the Navy's secondary battle station, should the Bridge be non-functional or inaccessible. Within the ATC, members of the Imperial Navy can monitor all travel, ensuring that only authorized personnel are permitted aboard an Imperial facility. Air Traffic Control must be operated at all times, except for the following:

• Free-flight is active

• The player count is above 90, as Airspace is closed to vessels at a higher player count.

  • When the player count is above 90, immediately close all hangar bays and report to a Supervisor or superior for your next assignment(s).
    
    

When requesting permission to depart or land at an Imperial-operated station, all vessels must request authorization from the Air Traffic Control. When operating ATC, you may use the following commands:

Granting Ships:  /comms [ATC] Granted <Callsign>.

Denying Ships:  /comms [ATC] Denied <Callsign>, <Reason>.

Opening or Closing a Hangar Bay:  /advert [ATC] Opening <Hangar bay>.

Should a member of the Imperial Security Bureau request permission, request their reasoning, and grant authorization to land. Denying requests from the ISB is not permitted unless directed by a superior. 

Naval personnel may additionally perform checks on the various controls located within the ATC. They can do functionality tests on the hangar doors by opening and closing them. If a malfunction is seen, you must report it through Naval comms and request Regimental Engineers to resolve the issue.

All travel requests must provide the following information:
[<Regiment> | <Name> | <Ship Type / Callsign / Access Codes>] Requesting permission to take off from SHB for sector patrol of airspace.

• Regiment

• Ship Type / Callsign / Access Codes

• Take Off / Landing Hangar bay

• Valid Reason

As a member of the Imperial Navy, you are in charge of making sure the ISD is stocked with everything it needs such as: ammunition, rations, various parts, and fuel. When you are ordered to request supplies, you must follow certain procedures.

Order the Supplies

• • Place an order for the requested supplies using the console located in the Intelligence Room.

Use the radio to gather personnel for assistance.

• Announce over the radio that supplies have been ordered, name the landing location, and request that any available personnel are to gather at the drop off point and assist in unloading the supplies.

Repeat step two using /comms.

• In addition to using the radio, use /comms as well to bring more attention to your request.

Walk to the drop of point to verify the supplies are being unloaded.

• The person who ordered the supplies will then walk to the drop off point where the supplies are being unloaded and verify that the unloading is being done correctly.

While the Bridge and Air Traffic Control are fundamental locations for Naval personnel to be stationed, the following additional sectors may be issued:

• Ground Control Center: Located on Tatooine and the primary station for Tank Troopers. Naval personnel authorizes ground travel to the appropriate personnel, following similar protocols as the ATC.

• Deck Patrol: Personnel assigned to deck patrol are expected to ensure all Imperial personnel continues performing to the standards expected of them and their regiment. Personnel found non-compliant and against regulations may be reported to a Naval Security Officer or ISB Operative/Agent.

• Supply Checks / Maintenance Patrols: Numerous storage containers/system consoles can be found throughout Imperial installations. Ensuring all necessary supplies and systems are at suitable functionality levels is crucial to the success of any operation.

• Identification Checks: Verifying the identification of suspicious troopers is vital to maintaining the operational security of Imperial operations. Naval personnel are authorized to check Clearance level 3 personnel during patrols or request a person present their ID upon entering a Clearance Restricted Area.

• Casualty Check: A casualty check is a record of the Imperial personal that have been wounded, killed, and or taken hostage during an operation. Naval personnel are to go to Medbay and check with medical for the records. Go through the records and check for casualty's and wounded if there are wounded personnel aboard the ISD, Naval is to call them down so medical can give medical attention. 

• Data Check: Verifying the data of the ISD is vital to keeping the ship at tip top shape and up to date. Naval personnel are tasked with traveling to the different consoles around the ISD to make sure the data aboard the ship is not corrupted or missing. If data is corrupted or missing naval personnel are to replace the data that was lost. 

Data check break down:
Naval personnel walks up to the console, and sits in the chair. 

/me opens software and enters credentials /roll - 50+ Successfully logs in | -49 Credentials are invalid If Failed → /me re-enters credentials /roll 
Same as above

 /me inserts drive into console /roll - 50+ Disk is read | -49 Disk is not readable If Failed → /me flips disk and reinserts /roll 
Same as above
/me runs a full data scan /roll 0 - 10 full data corruption and the console is frozen.
A Po2+ is needed to fix the issue

Petty officer II+ - Full wipe → /me inserts code cylinder /me activates override code 491D-18A (last part is optional)

 /roll - 0 - 49 is a failed wipe, repeat the process | 50+ is a success 11 - 25 Heavy data corruption, a full data replacement is needed

 /me deletes all data (no roll) /me uploads all data from drive onto console /roll - 0 - 49 is a failed upload, repeat the process 

 | 50+ is a success If successful, the console is good 26 - 50 Some data loss,

 upload the missing files /me uploads missing files /roll - 0 - 49 is a failed wipe, repeat the process 
50+ is a success If successful, the console is good 

Ship Inspections

When inspecting a ship, you must ensure a few things before the ship is considered flight ready.

• Determine what kind of vehicle you will be inspecting.

• Check hangar supply crates and ensure you have the parts required to replace damaged ones (if applicable).

• Go over the list of required parts for the assigned vehicle.

• Inspect /roll and perform the resulting outcome with the corresponding part.

Every major ship component must be inspected, rolled for, and dealt with accordingly for your inspection to be complete.

Ship Repairs

When preparing to either repair or inspect a ship, you must ensure a few things before proceeding.

• Determine what has been damaged or is causing issues.

• Inspect the damaged component and the surrounding area.

  • Use a /roll to determine the functionality of the damaged area.

• Complete repairs on the damaged area.
