[QUOTE="Jephkay, post: 3295162, member: 48827"] The Captain will be tenth. In a Starfleet game, everyone will be lower than him/her/it. In a non-Starfleet game? Hmm... it is conceivable that there could be some grizzled old space hand with more experience. The pilot should be 7th or 8th. Lower if he washed out before Lt Commander. I feel a chart coming on... This [I]will [/I] be argued, I should hope. If Life Experience is a function of Level, then: Rank Level Ensign 1-2 Lt JG 3-4 Lt 5-6 LtCMDR 7-8 CMDR 9-10 CAPt 10-11 Adm+ 12+ But we could easily do this: Rank Level Ensign 1-3 Lt JG 4-6 Lt 6-9 LtCMDR 10-12 CMDR 13-14 CAPt 15-17 Adm+ 17+ Note that weeks and months and years sometimes go by between doing something other than charting gaseous nebula (or dust clouds). Also, you have to make your promotion rolls after every campaign to see if you get new rank, and captain isn't something everyone gets, you might stay a department head for 20 years like Will Riker.
