I'm nearly completely unaware of how command staff should send orders and receive responses, though. What are the roles of command staff on a combat-ready ship, and what does that look like? That may need fixes.
I'm also not sure how a Vargr captain would address a foe, without sounding like he has an inferiority complex. Lots of growling? Have to surf wikipedia for canid psychology.
Very interesting.
I'll see what I can put together for you. If there's someone out there who was a Principal Warfare Officer on a ship of some sort they'd be able to give some really good examples. I'll try to provide what would be delivered and demanded in a Joint Ops Centre during some hairy incidents, which may be an alternative until you get something better.
