As Taldryan moves towards a bright new future, as does the design of it's fleet. Following the destruction in orbit over Kasiya during the Great Jedi War, much of the fleet had to be sold for parts or scrapped due to the extensive damage caused by the Children of Mortis.

But thanks to the generous support of Taldryan's allies in the Taldryan Republic, this new fleet has come to fruition far faster than anticipated and as such; everything needs names. Because you, the members of the clan, are a part of the Taldryan Republic and standing members of it's senate, you have the authority to put names up for proposal to be accepted by Supreme Chancellor Appius Wight Taldrya and Vice-Chair/Grand Admiral Teebu Nyrrire.

Your first duty is upon you, if you choose to accept it. Put in your proposed names, and may the best name win.

Each competition contained within will be available from the 5th of August until the 8th of August. Below is the breakdown of the new fleet, its specific purpose, and what is/is not included in the naming. Because of the simplicity of these competitions, it will be awarding Third-level crescents; with an upgrade to Second with participation.

Entries will gain points based on placement, 10 points in 1st place down to 1 point at 10th place. with ties broken by number of top 3 placements, and if a tie still exists at that point it will be broken by top 5 placements with points counted only for those 5.

Taldryan Republic Fleet

1st Battle Group of the Taldryan Republic (Competition 1)
--Starhawk Battlecruiser Mark-II (Clan Flagship; Will be named in a special way, not included in the competition.)
--3x Vindicator-class Heavy Cruiser (Competitions 2, 3, and 4)
--2x Raider II-class Corvette (Competitions 5 and 6)
--4x VT-49 Decimator Flight (Competition 7, top 4 become named.)

--TIE/D Defender Squadrons 1-3 (Competition 8, top 3 become named.)
--TIE/D Defender Squadrons 4-6 (Competition 9, top 3 become named.)
--TIE/SE Bomber Squadrons 1-4 (Competition 10, top 4 become named.)

The Battlegroup you send when you absolutely, positively, undoubtedly want something wrecked. Containing the new Taldryan Flagship, which is a massively armed Starhawk with the Advanced Kyber Turbolasers, while the three Vindicators can counter any cruiser on their own or even an ISD combined. Because no matter how good your big gun is, you don't leave its rear unprotected. This Battle Group will be the primary one that travels on missions.

2nd Battle Group of the Taldryan Republic (Competition 11)
--NSD "Axios" (Historical name, not included in competition)
--3x Vindicator-class Heavy Cruiser (Competitions 12, 13, and 14)
--2x Raider II-class Corvette (Competitions 15 and 16)
--4x VT-49 Decimator Flight (Competition 17, top 4 become named.)

--TIE/D Defender Squadrons 1-3 (Competition 18, top 3 become named.)
--TIE/D Defender Squadrons 4-6 (Competition 19, top 3 become named.)
--TIE/SE Bomber Squadrons 1-3 (Competition 20, top 3 become named.)
--TIE/SE Bomber Squadrons 4-5 (Competition 21, top 2 become named.)

The primary defense Battle Group of Kasiya, stationed in orbit over the moon. The heavily upgraded and retrofitted Axios (It's still the same ship as before, just extensively changed) is equipped with our new Ascendant Sensor Suite which can detect any Ascendant items/equipment within 2 parsecs of its location to ensure that the Children of Mortis are seen if they try and return, or when other clans attempt to move on Taldryan space.

3rd Battle Group of the Taldryan Republic (Competition 22)
--Immobilizer 418 Cruiser "Orthanc" (Historical name, not included in competition)
--Vindicator Heavy Cruisers (Competition 23)
--2x Raider II-class Corvette (Competitions 24 and 25)
--3x VT-49 Decimator Flight (Competition 26, top 3 become named)

--TIE/D Defender Squadrons 1-3 (Competition 27, top 3 become named)
--TIE/SE Bomber Squadron (Competition 28)

That's no moon, it just has the mass shadow. A special purpose fleet denying movement to anybody Taldryan doesn't want to move, with enough bite to not be shot out of the way until help arrives.

Floatilla of the Taldryan Republic (Competition 29)
--Consinga-class Heavy Corvette (Competition 30)
--2x Marauder-class Corvettes (Competition 31, top 2 become named.)

--TIE/Interceptor Squadrons 1-2 (Competition 32, top 2 become named.)

The EMP Burst-generator equipped Consinga Floatilla is a group with the speed to rush head-first into enemy formations to trigger the EMP, disabling unprepared groups. The purpose of the Marauder cruisers are to bring the TIE Interceptors, whose sole purpose is to defend the Consinga until it executes its payload, at which point the Marauder cruisers will retrieve the disabled Interceptors. The pilots for these interceptors are from various prison facilities, kept in line with remote lockout switches if they attempt anything. Should they survive the mission, the reward for doing so is freedom. Civilians as well can volunteer for these extremely risky and often deadly missions.

Orbital Support Corps (Competition 33)
--2x Free Virgillia-class Bunkerbuster (Competition 34, top 2 become named)

--TIE/D Defender Squadrons 1-2 (Competition 35, top 2 become named)

A simple support fleet providing orbital bombardment capability to the ground troops of Taldryan, carrying their own escort fighters to free up the other capital ships for more important duties.

If you have any questions, you are allowed to ask either Teebu, Appius, Jorm, or Zen'trula. We will not give you name ideas however.
