P96.01.09A-1
A role-playing unit (unit) shall be defined as an ongoing plotline with
five or more players that functions as such as part of one of the Fleets.
It is required that a unit have a person in command (referred to as CO)
and another person deputizing in that capacity (referred to as FO). It is
further required that a unit be in existence for at least a month before
the RT convenes for it to be seated at same and that it is actively
playing at that time.
All groups of players that do not form a unit (henceforth called Free
Threads) will be represented by CINCOPS.
P96.01.09A-2
In addition, it is at the liberty of the Admiralty Council to declare as a
unit, any on-going plotline that satisfies the above but is not part of
any Fleet.
