Title: Fleet Designations
Post by: Knight Templar on January 02, 2003, 01:17:15 am

Ok, Hell if I know if this has been discussed or not before, but I need to know the fleet designations of each system, or at least what can be agreed upon as canon.

Fleet Designations as in 3rd fleet - Capella, 4th fleet - Vega

I need to know as many as possible, specifically Epsilon Pegasai, Alpha Centauri, Aldebaran and Vasuda.

As far as the Vasudans go, All I remember was the 12th or 13 battle group pertaining to the Psamtik, have no idea where it was based though.

What I do know:

well the first fleet used to be Earth I presume. I'd say that it isn't anymore though looking at capella and vega as 3rd and 4th.  I'd say they switched Delta Serpintis to 1, Betaq to 2, Capella to 3 and Vega to 4, but I'll be damned if I know for sure.

So ideas, comments, known knowledge. Give it to me! :p

Ok so the 6th fleet is based in Epsilon Pegasai, yet its the one that Bosch takes when he defects.. the only thing is in the Mission breifing for the SOC missions where you play as the NTF, Snipes tells you (GTVA Snipes) that you are being backed by the 6th fleet and the Vasudans.. so did the GTVA Reform the 6th fleet elsewhere or what?

I see your point. He probably didn't take the entire 6th Fleet, probably just a few destroyers, corvettes, and cruisers. After all, the NTF had a helluva lotta shipyards in Polaris, Regulus, and Sirius anyway, so they could churn out a couple of dozen warships per month (okay, I'm exaggerating). Plus, 75% of an entire fleet decimated in a single offensive?
