=====Special Tactics and Reconnaissance=====
====Basics====

Uniform: Have no own uniform, personal use either the uniform of their previous service or civilian dress.

Mission: Do the most sensitive an demanding missions. Each agent is picked by the Emperor and each member of the support staff is picked by the agents.

====Personnel====

Total personnel: about 2,000-3,000  of those about 150-200 are actual agents, rest are support(exact numbers are classified).

====Training====
Based on any other service background, on becoming agents they gain:
  * Patron - Empire, +30; Appears fairly often (9-), x1; Equipment, +100%; Special Abilities, +50%; Minimal Interventions, -50%.[60]
  * They get 15 point legal enforcement powers.
  * Legal immunity(service) 15 points.
  * Security clearance: 15 points
  * If lower they get status 2
  * If lower get the 30 point wealth
  * Duty becomes extremely hazardous: -5 points

The support staff only gets: security clearance 10 (lots, but only on need to know basis) and none of the other things.

====Deployment====
Special Tactics and Reconnaissance(Spectre) are agents entrusted with extraordinary authority by the Emperor, including the power of life and death over the inhabitants of the Empire. They form an elite group selected from all the services, and their primary responsibility is to preserve the stability of the empire by whatever means necessary. Though they are generally considered as being above the law and have complete discretion as to the methods used to accomplish their mission, an individual's status as a Spectre can be revoked by the Emperor in a case of gross misconduct. Spectres work normally small groups, but occasionally alone according to the nature of a particular task and to their personal preference. 

Candidates for the Special Tactics and Reconnaissance typically have years of military or law enforcement experience before even being considered. The screening process involves background checks, psychological evaluations, and a long period of field training under an experienced mentor. Because of the rigorous selection process, agents might sometimes use unorthodox methods but they rarely go rogue. When it does happen, the only solution is to revoke their status, then send another team after them. No one else would be up to the job.

====Ranks====
A typical agent will be rank 2-4 in the military, but their only command structure is within their team. Thus all rank except team leaders one rank is courtesy rank.

They answer only to the Emperor, and in some cases the Emperor prefers not to know the exact details of how an agent accomplishes their mission. Agents act in any way they see fit, either with careful diplomacy or ruthless force, being officially above almost any law. 

====Equipment====
Special Tactics and Reconnaissance have access to the best equipment in the empire 

====Interaction====
All other services offer assistance to Special Tactics and Reconnaissance when asked.
