| Taldryan's Battle Group II, '''''Vigilance''''', consists of the secondary support elements of [[Taldryan Navy|Taldryan's Navy]]. Packing less raw firepower than Battle Group I, '''''Vigilance''''' is filled with the ships of the line that serve more than the singular purpose of death and destruction. As such, it's operational capabilities range from strike, to interdiction and capture, to blockading entire planets and troop transport. With such a varied set of tools available to it, it is not uncommon for individual ships, or small task forces of ships from '''''Vigilance''''' to be separated from the main force to carry out specific missions. | | Taldryan's Battle Group II, '''''Vigilance''''', consists of the secondary support elements of [[Taldryan Navy|Taldryan's Navy]].

- ―Death before disgrace: Battle Group II's Motto
Battle Group II, nicknamed Vigilance is the second Battle Group in Taldryan's Navy. Commanded by Admiral Raif Slaxton, it consists of multiple warships and support vessels, and is part of the Taldryan Expansionary Force
Mission
Taldryan's Battle Group II, Vigilance, consists of the secondary support elements of Taldryan's Navy. Packing less raw firepower than Battle Group I, Vigilance is filled with the ships of the line that serve more than the singular purpose of death and destruction. As such, it's operational capabilities range from strike, to interdiction and capture, to blockading entire planets and troop transport. With such a varied set of tools available to it, it is not uncommon for individual ships, or small task forces of ships from Vigilance to be separated from the main force to carry out specific missions.
Command Structure
As a fully functional Battle Group in its own right, Vigilance has a strict command structure that it adheres to at all times. Operational command of the Battle Group falls to Battle Group Commander Admiral Raif Slaxton, who commands from his flagship the Relentless. The Battle Group Executive Officer is Commodore Kyle Takan, aboard the Compulsor.
Aboard each individual ship, the captain of the ship is lord and commander, there is no higher authority for onboard personnel than the captain of the vessel. Attached Squadrons will report to a Wing Commander if applicable, who will then report to the captain for orders.
In terms of overall command authority, the Battle Group Commander of Battle Group II ranks third in the entire Taldryan Navy, behind High Admiral Tak Vordin, and the Commander of Battle Group I.
