Rank and Promotions

I get a lot of messages about promotions and the like. I've decided that I'm going to create a rank system and that it will be designated here. The ranks come with varying levels of responsibility and power. The ranks will be:

Officers
General - Complete control over the army. Can make any promotion. (Robert) Only one ever.

colonel  - Second in command. Responsible for keeping track of membership, rules, statistics, etc. Can also add and remove faction members. Only one - ever. (Lori) - Major reports to Colonel. Colonel may approve promotions up to the level of Major, including enablement of faction promotions to allow majors to do their duty with respect to recruit.

Major - Third in command. Can add and remove faction members. Only 2 for now. Captians report to the major.  Majors are responsible for recruiting and training faction new faction members and, under the direction of the major, correcting faction members who violate rules or are in danger of being discharged from the faction. Majors may not discharge members but should make discharge requests to the Colonel and General. Majors are responsible for accepting faction members who make requests to join the faction after they have been properly qualified. Majors should remain in constant contact with the Captian's. Majors make promotion requests for lower officers and any enlisted to both the General and the Colonel.

Captain - Leads a group of troops with 2 lieutenants under this person. Unlimited number. Reports to Major. Captian's are responsible for recruiting but do not have the ability to add faction members. Recruits should goto the faction page and request to join the faction. Should stay in constant contact with the lieutenants. Capt's make promotion requests for lower officers and any enlisted to their Major.

Lieutenant - Leads a group of enlisted. Unlimited number. Reports to Captain. Each Lt. will be assigned one or more enlisted man to be responsible for. The Lt. should be in constant contact with their assigned enlisted men.

Enlisted
Sergeant - Will be responsible for at least one lower rank enlisted person.
Corporal - Responsible to fight
Private  - Responsible to fight
Buck Private  - Responsible to fight

I will have a list of rank assignments out soon.
