Supreme Commander (Yuuzhan Vong rank)


 * ''This page is about the usage of the title of Supreme Commander by the Yuuzhan Vong. For other usages of the same or similar titles, see the disambiguation page.

Supreme Commander was a rank among the Warrior caste of the Yuuzhan Vong. It was the highest rank after Warmaster, but immediately below it came the rank of Commander, which was borne by the captains of most individual ships. It seems therefore to be analogous to the "Admiral" and "General" ranks of the Empire and Alliance.

Supreme Commanders could serve several roles in the Yuuzhan Vong military: they were often the leaders of battlegroups, but officers of this rank could also have charge of prosecuting the war across a whole region of the Galaxy, or serve as the captains of large warships. For instance, Supreme Commander Nas Choka, leading operations in Hutt Space, was the senior officer promoted to Warmaster after the death of Tsavong Lah, but after his promotion, another Supreme Commander served as his flagship's captain, with several more acting as his senior aides.

To make matters more confusing, some warriors referred to simply as "Commander"&mdash;such as Shedao Shai&mdash;have been retrospectively identified as Supreme Commanders.
