I'm in... but one question... difficult decisions? Does this mean I can make the "difficult decision" of bouncing the ship off a planet to see if it explodes? Or are we just talking about executing... err... firing under-performers.

It was a really fun event. Unfortunately, the more people you add to the group, the harder it gets to establish a chain of command.

I think delegating command functions to appropriate party members would be best.
Command
Captain - overall command of the ship. Gives orders to all section chiefs
Owner - tells the captain where they want to go in general, leaves all commands to the captain.

Navigation
Pilot - responsible for sublight speed maneuvering May be responsible for navigation and pilot controlled weapons
Co-Pilot - Responsible for power distribution, shield power allocations, etc. May be responsible for setting up navigation.
Communications officer - may be a collateral duty station - responsible for communicating with ports and other ships


Chief Engineer - responsible for power distribution and directing.performing maintenance on subsystems. If systems are getting to the point where they need replacement or refurbishment at a shipyard, it's his/her duty to notify the captain. Responsible for commanding damage control parties
Engineering mate - direct individual damage control teams, perform repairs as directed by the chief engineer.

Chief of security - calls out defensive play for security detail. Is responsible for ship patrols. Ensures captain's orders are carried out with regards to
Security officers - Can be shared duty with Turret operators

Agreed, the more people added, the more complicated it gets. Eventually we will be able to structure it accordingly!
