As stated on the main page, new recruits will be assigned a probationary rank that only comes into effect once the recruit has proved himself. A temporary rank will be assigned during the probationary time that takes in account the player’s age, gaming experience, skill, loyalty, etc. Players will have an opportunity to rank up according to the time chart below (with frequent exceptions). Loyalty counts; rarely will a new recruit receive a rank higher than a loyal Pathfinder.
You must generally be at the particular rank for the specified amount of time before you can rank up. We reserve the right to make appointments-or not make them- as we see fit. Battlefield commissions are common but must be earned.
