Here are the general orders of Earth Fleet, and what they mean in play. Violations of general orders are harshly disciplined. The general orders are listed in order of importance, from one to three. One supersedes two, and that supersedes three.
   * **Order 1**, //Hesitate and Think//: This isn't meant to mean inaction, or delaying needed action. Instead order one simply means that Earth fleet personnel think first. They never act brashly, never shoot first and ask questions later, they think and plan first. The way we refer to this in the game is //acting with hesitation// and that is the normal state of all Earth Fleet. When acting otherwise is called //acting without hesitation//, in this state the advanced training of Earth Fleet kicks in and they earn a bonus die for all rolls. There are many times you are allowed to act without hesitation, even under order one: dangerous or harrowing situations, and certain alert statuses.   * **Order 1**, //Hesitate and Think//: This isn't meant to mean inaction, or delaying needed action.

   * **Order 2**, //Never Surrender//: Earth fleet doesn't wave the white flag, they don't give up and they don't quit. When the chips are down, they come through or die trying. In the fiction, this "can do" attitude is represented by a simple rule. When a character is disabled, all advantage is returned to the pool as if the situation just started, and the GM picks a player to earn a die.   * **Order 2**, //Never Surrender//: Earth fleet doesn't wave the white flag, they don't give up and they don't quit.

   * **Engine Power Down**: The engine may not be fully powered down quickly. In a situation, it'll take five rounds for it to power down. Powering it down quicker than that risks a critical breach, roll a d10 for each round ignored. The engineer may roll a challenge against this outcome. The highest outcome of the dice roll is number of criticals done to the ship (ships can't survive criticals beyond their scale).   * **Engine Power Down**: The engine may not be fully powered down quickly.

   * **Engine Power Up**: The engine may not be powered up quickly. In a situation, it'll take five rounds for it to power up. Powering it up quicker than that risks a serious issue, and possible destruction of the engine main grid. Roll a d10 for each round ignored. The engineer may roll a challenge against this outcome. The highest outcome of the dice roll is the number of criticals done to the ship's power grid (Every power grid as a ship system, has five critical squares that can be filled before its totally destroyed).   * **Engine Power Up**: The engine may not be powered up quickly.
