Article 1 : General Imperial Doctrine

Item A: The Tarkin Doctrine
The Tarkin Doctrine was published by the now late grand moff tarkin. It was later adopted into the Imperial Doctrine after his death.

Item B. The Doctrine Of pre-emptive Defense
This doctrine states that the empire should attack and neutralize any perceived threats to stability and order well before they have the ability or oppurtunity to attack even if they have shown no signs of agressive campaigning.

Item C. The Doctrine Of Human Supremacy
This doctrine states that humans as a race are superior to all others and thus destined to rule over the galaxy. Alien races must prove their equality in order ro be spared from subjection to slavery or invluntary servitude, for unless such proof can be presented equality is not assumed. If proof cannot be produced then these individuals are expected to assume their roled as servants of humans.

Item D. The Doctrine of Individual Supremacy of combat
This doctrine states that the imperial warrior should be equipped, trained, and prepared to be far more than a match for several of his enemies. This system operates in the intrests of destroying the enemy tactics using strength in numbers.

 

Article 2 Naval Doctrine

Item A The Doctrine of Naval Mandate
The navy's role in the function of the imperial military is to Provide air superiority for Imperial intrests in the galaxy by either attacking or seizing any ship deemed suspicous by a commanding officer of a Sector group or Capital Vessel. The navy is also to Provide routine patrols of space to maintain order and to escort important VIP\'s and shipments through hostile sectors. It is also an important part of Naval ideals to engage known enemy space strongholds in an effort to lessen attacks on un prepared imperial units. This cooincides with article 1 item b.

Item B The Doctrin of Imperial Military Cooperation
This states that it is the Job of the Different factions of the imperial military to cooperate, not to fight amongst themselves. They must work together strategically by using their different strengths to achive a common goal.
