Line 1: {{Clan military ranks}} {{Clan military ranks}} − '''Star Colonel''' is a high-level officer rank within the [[Clan military structure]], with its naval equivalent being a [[Star Commodore]]. A Star Colonel commands a [[Cluster]] of units, usually four or five [[Binary|Binaries]], [[Trinary|Trinaries]], and/or [[Supernova (unit)|Supernovas]]. The rank is analogous with a [[Major]] or [[Colonel]] among the [[Inner Sphere]] militaries.<ref>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 11</ref><ref>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 14</ref> + '''Star Colonel''' is a high-level officer rank within the [[Clan military structure]]. A Star Colonel commands a [[Cluster]] of units, usually four or five [[Binary|Binaries]], [[Trinary|Trinaries]], or [[Supernova (unit)|Supernovas]]. + Only [[Bloodname]]d warriors can become Star Colonels and a [[Clan]] usually has fewer than a dozen at any one time. Because Clan military forces are smaller in number than those of the [[Inner Sphere]], the next rank, [[Galaxy Commander]], is often held by the [[Khan]] or [[saKhan]] of the Clan. + + As Clan society is a military-led caste system, Star Colonels must be politically, as well as militarily, adroit.
