Hello out there.

Having read the excellent material available on this group, and
hoping to shortly begin running a campaign based on these rules, I
have a question.

The Imperial Navy - Bridge Officer career has no entrances from any
enlisted man career, including Petty Officer. The only entrance I've
been able to spot (apart from the rather specialized Navigator
career) is from the Noble - Count career, a career with high enough
trapping requisites to bar PCs in a Civilian or Battlefield game
from entering. Is this intentional, to emphasize the class divide in
the Imperial Navy? If so, it might be a bit extreme, since it's
easier to make Captain (by entering from the Spacer career
progression) than to become a Bridge Officer.

Any thoughts?
