Editing Imperial Military Assets

==Current Forces Available==

*Four Field Forces – 26,700 personnel
*Reserves – 15,000 personnel
*98 Sky Guard Airships – 2,450 personnel
*75 Navy ships – 4,500 personnel
*Six Redoubts – 51,600 personnel

===Background===
The number of Field Forces has been reduced from five to four because of the number of trained soldiers. The reserves lost significant numbers during the Battle of Lookshy and went from over six field forces worth of personnel to almost three field forces. The force numbers only include natural citizens of Lookshy and not Helots which were freed. Most Helots continue to pursue work in agriculture and business.

===Breakdown of Dragon-Blooded===
*Essence 6 – 6 (All members of the Martial Staff )
*Essence 5 – 19
*Essence 4 – 52
*Essence 3 – 149
*Essence 2 – 292
*Essence 1 – 23 (Dragon-blooded children between ages 9-14)

===Notes===
This is for Lookshy only, and doesn't take other parts of the Empire into account, or the number of Enlightened Mortals, which may number as high as 5-10 thousand.  Once a census has been taken, numbers will be improved, in the case of Terrestrials, an increase of 100% is projected.

===Notes===
Currently 2 Legions have been organized.  Recruitment and personnel transferred from Redoubts will allow for 10 more to be raised in the next year.  Currently Terrestrials hold the highest ranks, with Enlightened Mortals and Unenlightened Mortals comprising the rest as appropriate.  Greyfalls will account for nearly another Legion worth of troops, but lack the Warstriders and magi-tech infantry, and have no sorcerers.

Officers and magi-tech infantry are to be trained in Lookshy proper, with veteran instructors charged with the training of troops at various recruit depots located throughout the land.

Terrestrial length of service is 60 years, Enlightened and Unenlightened Mortals have a length of service of 16 years. 


=='''Imperial Navy'''==

*12 Glorious Dragonfly-Class Patrol Boats
**1 Medium Implosion Bow, 2 Medium Essence Cannons
**Can carry up to four tons of cargo

*50 Blue Water Merchant Ships
**2 Light Ballista
**1 Talon of Marines (125 soldiers) 
**Or up to two thousand tons of cargo

*25 Large Merchant Ships
**1 Heavy Steam Cannon, 2 Light Steam Cannon
**4 Talons of Marines (500 soldiers)
**Or up to three thousand tons of cargo

Non-Combat Traders
*10 Whirligig-Class Couriers
**12 tons of cargo
**No weapons or Marines

===Notes===
The Navy yards at Marin Bay, Port Calin, Lookshy and Thorns need to be building more Blue Water and Large Merchant ships.  Getting the 20 or so ''Swift Midday Brilliance''-Class Light Warships rearmed and operating is paramount.  As is building more along with additional ''Dragonfly'' Patrol Boats.


=='''Imperial Skyguard'''==

*6 Kireeki-Class Assault Skyremes

**Skywolf has 2 Lightning Ballistae, 4 Medium Implosion Bows, 5 Light Implosion Bows, 2 Warstrider Fire Lances, Skyship Haze Shield
**All others have 2 Medium Implosion Bows, 4 Light Implosion Bows and a Skyship Haze Shield
**Can carry 2 Scales of Commandos (50 soldiers)
**Can also carry 8 Warstriders on external tethers

**4 Medium Essence Cannons
**70 Sky Guard Marines
**Ten tons of cargo

*100 Manta Class Transports
**2 Warstrider Fire Lances
**Can carry 1 Talon of Sky Guard Marines or 2 Warstriders

===Notes===
The Skyremes need to be rearmed with Essence weaponry, and possibly more built, if additional Manta's are created to screen them.  Non-combat Air Boats based off of the Defiance can be used to carry 20 tons of cargo and undermine the Guild, but will require Manta's to screen them.

-*20 ''Swift Midday Brilliance''-Class Light Warships

-*5 ''Resplendent Dolphin''-Class Undersea Courier

-==Future Plans==
-Establish the Imperial Messenger Service using the Chariots.  Make it available to all people, bring some sense of unity in the nation.
-Establish good roads to all cities.
-Take steps to ensure that the people feel part of a nation instead of just part of a city within a nation.
-Establish a secondary training school.  It's purpose is to awaken the average mortal, for positions in the military, IMS and Nary and Air Force.
-Uplift the Linowan, even if it means paving over their culture.  Running around on canoes and hitting things with sticks until they turn green and get wood for redwoods is counter productive to my plans.
-Ensure the highest levels of education and employment possible for the Empire.
-Conquer the Hundred Kingdoms.
-Kill Raksi.
-Reverse the tech decline of Lookshy and get production back, ensuring infantry weapons and armor are prioritized with Mantas and 'Striders behind.
-Expand both the Navy and the Air Force.
-We have 20 Swift Midday Brilliance-Class Light Warships.  They need to repaired and re-armed with Essence weapons.
