However, we apparently now need a Commodore rank above Fleet Admiral.

Fortunately, Star Trek Beyond continues with this amazing progression. Star Trek (2009) showed us this was totally legit. And everyone else in the galaxy is apparently an admiral too. Maybe I sound old fashioned but that’s just the way I feel about it.One of my gripes with STO is the rank progression - one can basically go from cadet to Fleet Admiral in days. I like a role play game but it needs the correct details. So I agree with all of you (except of the answer that it is just a game, that’s an answer that feels too easy to me, no offence to Bridger for that but the second part is just how I see it too, they screwed up the system)Īlso for petrarch, also true but then it is still as Bridger says, they screwed up the system Too bad that they didn’t consider that when building up that system. Then you can give the rank of admiral and the job function of fleet commander. Just going to admiral and no further looks like more like it as I have read in many canon stories you have to count over more then 5000-10000 starships and in some stories closer to 30000 starships and if you have about 100 starships in one fleet, then that can be commanded by a normal admiral, not a fleet admiral.

It is too bad that they arranged that like this. Also because it is made as a role playing game but the role you play doesn’t add up to realism.
