I'm developing the military side of things as we speak. However, I'm away till Sunday, so I can't update yet. The military is similar to modern day structure, with some sci-fi elements, and is separated into branches. For now we have the navy and the marine complement, but on more developed planets that we're visiting there will be the in-atmosphere army and air forces. You're more than welcome to make an officer aboard the Scythian, but be aware that it's just a transport to get us to the planet, it's not a battleship or anything.
