Chain Of Command

From Rouny's Marine Corps 14 Wiki

Definitions

Commanding Officer (CO)

An official UNMC Commanding Officer. Only accessible through the whitelist.

Commander

The current Commander of an operation, giving the main orders to the squads and their supervisors.

If the Commander is rendered incapable of command temporarily, the Duty Officer inherits Commander rights, but should the Commander return, they are still the Commander. This includes but is not limited to:

  •  Prolonged communications outage.
  •  The Commander deploying in the field.

If the Commander is rendered permanently incapable of command, the next in the Chain of Command becomes the Commander, rather than a Duty Officer. This includes but is not limited to:

  •  The Commander is relieved of duty due to arrest or mutiny.
  •  The Commander becoming unrevivable.

Duty Officer

The ranking officer in the Chain of Command who, in the temporary absence of the Commander, is placed in command of the warship.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, the Duty Officer is interchangeable with, and inherits the rights of Commander in this case.
