The higher ranks like Grand Admiral also provide small bonuses to things like how fast your capitalships level up, as you are able to share your experience with the captains of your ships. Many units and technology, including all Imperial Capitalships larger than the Victory-class Star Destroyers, can only be built once you reach a certain rank. In addition, many ranks provide bonuses that are not just related to your fleet size. Each increase in rank will increase both your fleet supply and your command capacity (how many capitalships you can field), though it will also require more resources to maintain the larger forces under your command. There are seven ranks to be earned in Interregnum, the first being the lowly Lieutenant and the last being the prestigious Grand Admiral. I can only hope that one of you will be brilliant enough to save it.' - Captain Teren Rogriss, speaking to a graduating class of the Imperial Naval Academy, 6 ABY. The Empire needs all the talent it muster. I hope you waste no time climbing the ranks. Should you show skill, bravery and inventiveness in your commands, you will quickly find yourselves being promoted over old timers like me. You are graduating in the Empire's darkest hour. There is no point in hiding it from you cadets. I already shutter at night thinking about how many of my classmates have died at battles we all know. I fear it will not be long before you will lose many of the friends you made here.

But no amount of training can really prepare you for the horrors of the war you are about to enter. The Empire has provided you with the best education available, and you are sure to find it invaluable on your first commands. 'With that, I hope you all remember your training here on Anaxes, cadets.
