The Void Fleet
- Role: The primary military force of the Heimveld. The Void Fleet maintains the empire’s iron grip over its vast territories, projecting power across space and ensuring logistical dominance.
- Assets:
- Capital Ships: Massive dreadnoughts, carriers, and battleships. Flagships are revered, often named after mythic figures of The Unfallen’s conquests.
- Strike Cruisers & Escorts: Agile vessels for skirmishes and system patrols.
- Space Stations & Habitats: Fortress-like installations in key systems, housing millions of personnel, factories, and shipyards.
- Transport & Logistics Ships: The unsung workhorses, moving troops, supplies, and weapons across the empire.
- Personnel:
- The Voidborn, career officers who live their entire lives on ships.
- The Fleeters conscripted spacers trained in minimal shipboard duties.
- Flavor: Naval officers are the elites of the military. There’s a sense of aristocracy and prestige among command positions, while the lower ranks are not mistreated conscripts but skilled professionals operating the empire’s most valuable assets. The Void Fleet is a meritocracy compared to the other branches, with competence rewarded and failure harshly punished.
