"The 5th fleet are renowned by their allies, feared by their enemies, respected by all."
— CMDR Fenris Soontir


The Fifth Imperial Fleet are the sole naval defenders of the Deep Core Sector’s space. Commanded by Vice Admiral Mayas Lennorian and manned by the Empire's finest, the 5th Fleet is known for its efficiency, discipline and dedication to Imperial values.

The 5th Imperial Fleet is a fully operational Naval Unit with the most advanced up to date weapon systems and vessels in the Galaxy. Currently the 11th Group is the sole operational arm of the 5th Imperial Fleet.

The 11th Group was formed with a “Heavy Assault Mandate” but has later been re-assigned as a reconnaissance unit. However, being the only group so far assigned to the 5th makes them responsible for a variety of tasks such as:

  • Defense of 5th Fleet Headquarters located within the Deep Core Sector;
  • Sector Patrols to provide security and protection to the Deep Core Sector’s planetary bodies, their citizens and it’s infrastructure and all vessels and stations within the sector.


Current Affairs

The 11th group is commanded by the Group Commanding Officer (GCO). With strength and determination, he leads the group together with his Group Executive Officer (GXO), Commander Fenris Soontir. Together they form a strong team team with years of experience and activity behind them, injecting good spirit and morale into their troops.

The GCO reports directly to the 5th Imperial Fleet Commanding Officer (FCO), Vice Admiral Mayas Lennorian. Serving as Fleet Training Officer is Commander Wilhelm Draagvarg. His duty is to train the new recruits arriving to the 5th Fleet and improve the officers performance through extensive training missions and tactical lessons, keeping the 5th fleet and its officer always alert and ready to be deployed into combat hot zones on short warnings.

5th Imperial Fleet History

In the Year 12 Day 221 by the order of Lord Admiral Blackrain and Naval Command, The 5th Imperial Fleet and 11th Group were born. Commodore Mayas Lennorian was assigned as Fleet Commanding Officer. The group designation was to become the 11th Group, commanded by Lieutenant Ardath Lemeth at the time. As mentioned earlier the 11th Group was first formed with an Heavy Assault Mandate, but has overtime changed its military focus. The 11th Group is nowadays mainly a reconnaissance unit. The 5th Fleet reputation has been growing ever since the day it was born. Hard working men and women is what defines this unit. Few men and women have not heard of the 5th Imperial Fleet in modern times, and their reputation continues to grow. The 5th Fleet has been taking part in several operations under it’s years. Operation Pink was one of the many times the men and women of the 5th Fleet proved to the world and themselves they were a force to be reckoned with.

Operation Pink

On Day 230 of Year 12, Intelligence was acted on regarding a nefarious plot spearheaded by Rebel terrorists unknown. The plot involved filling our Empires capital space with various debris all colored pink, in an attempt to inconvenience the Empire. Reports indicated that some of the debris was purchased with stolen Galactic Credits, or the items stolen themselves. The 5th Fleet was charged with completely locking down the system, and they were successful. Through communiques that were strategically leaked to the terrorists, they were informed that the fleet knew who was involved, and that entering the system at all would leave them with only the choice of arrest or death, depending on their actions on entering. Shortly after the information was leaked, Intelligence reported emergency communiques between terrorists warning to abort their attempts. It seems that the warnings were heeded, as the courage lacking terrorists not once showed their face. The mission was, by all accounts, successful and an excellent first mission for the newly formed 5th Imperial Fleet.

Operation Derelict Rancor

The 5th fleet has just conducted and completed another drill, in which they also worked closely to the Army. This mission was called Derelict Rancor.

Through the days 96-105 in year 16, one of the most extensive training exercises in Imperial history took place. Operation Derelict Rancor was revolutionary in the aspect of combined-arms operations, and saw two opposing task forces consisting of 5th Fleet and 1st Legion units clash over and on the surface of the core world of Kalist III.

The defending task force of Team Derelict, simulating rogue Imperial units taking an entire planet hostage, was tracked down and attacked by loyalist units of similar strength and composition. Despite ferocious resistance from Team Derelict and the fact they were facing down officers they few days ago had considered close friends, Team Lawful did not shy away from their duties, but engaged and neutralized the enemy space forces.

A relentless hunt for the heavy armored units on the planet surface followed. Supported by TIE/sa Bombers, the AT-AT's of Team Lawful routed the remaining renegade units. This was one of the first training exercises with joint command and forces, and it showed the combined strength of the Imperial forces working together. This final part ended the exercise.
