Units

Star Navy fleets were based around particular groups, such as Command fleets, Praetorian fleets, Senatorial fleets, Coalition fleets, etc. These fleets were then assigned to specific "commands", such as Star Command, Exploration Command, Pacification Command or Occupation Command. These fleets were comprised of several avaras of around a hundred vessels. Avaras were then broken down into command wings of ten to twenty vessels, named after the lead vessel (called a 'wingship') of the wing.
