Grand Admiral Neofenn was one of the handful of naval officers so skilled and wise that they’d essentially become superiors to the Archons, as crazy as that sounded. Specialists had the advantage of putting all their training time into one discipline, whereas the Archons had to split their time between the 5 branches of the Star Force military…naval, aquatics, commando, mechs, and aerial. So even though Neofenn was only 46,038 years old, he had eclipsed most of the Archons in his naval skill level, though not all. Some still had him beat by a considerable margin, but when in the field the Archons in his fleet deferred to his command because he was more knowledgeable than them in naval warfare.

But they were skilled in other areas, and when one had to juggle everything at the same time he deferred to the Archons. It was a team effort, but in most cases Neofenn and the other High Admirals were given considerable latitude in order to free up the Archons from high end duty. Those badasses were at their best when they could roam to where the biggest problems were, yet given the size of the galaxy that left a lot of empty spots to fill, and the High Admirals filled the most needed naval duties that otherwise would go to high level Archons.

Neofenn was a Rammus, standing barely a meter tall and covered in armored plates. His race had been absorbed by Star Force peaceably, unlike many other races that were originally enemies. Before Star Force, the Rammus were pretty much vulnerable to any enemy that came around, and the protection Star Force had given them had always weighed heavily on Neofenn and the others. They had gotten more than they contributed, and when Neofenn had become one of only 19 Grand Admirals at the time of his ascension, the entire Rammus Sub-faction celebrated for weeks, and it was to this day the highest honor and responsibility any Rammus had garnered within the Empire.

But that wasn’t enough, and his race still felt they were not fully doing their part. The main issue with this was their biology, which wasn’t well suited to commando work. They couldn’t become a full faction without having the ability to fight in that element, and though they’d tried to do so they’d never been able to accomplish it. Instead they’d paired with the Calavari, incorporating colonies of theirs into Rammus territory and using them for the majority of their infantry while the Rammus provided their typical support operations…most of which were scouting and running supplies and weapons up to the big guys.

The other four divisions of the military they could handle with machine enhancements. Swimming was tolerable, for they had a small tail that was more useful than Human legs. They weren’t made for it, but they could swim enough to qualify for Aquatics, though most of that was due to the mechanical suits they wore. They couldn’t do
