As of the date of this Order, by my hand, and by the authority of the Sovereign, Queen of Manticore Elizabeth III, I hereby Order that, effective immediately, the following clarification and guidance is issued as it relates to [[Admiralty Order 1612-02]] (Selection of Flagships):
As of the date of this Order, by my hand, and by the authority of the Sovereign, Queen of Manticore Elizabeth III, I hereby Order that, effective immediately, the following clarification and guidance is issued as it relates to [[Orders:Admiralty Order 1612-02]] (Selection of Flagships):


Since [[Admiralty Order 1612-02|AO1612-02]] allows only one [[Flag Officer]] to select any given ship as their [[Flagship]], there may be conflicts with multiple Flag Officers desiring a single ship for their Flag. In these cases, Positional Seniority will supercede rank seniority in these situations.

In these cases, Positional Seniority will supercede rank seniority in these situations.


Positional Seniority is set as follows (in order from highest to lowest): the [[Sovereign]], the [[Prime Minister]], the [[First Lord of the Admiralty]], the [[First Space Lord]], any other [[Royal Council]] Member (Seniority of which is determined by the current succession AO), the [[Commanding_Officer#Fleet_Commanding_Officer|Fleet Commander]], any other [[Space Lord]] in seniority by Space Lord posting (2SL outranks 3SL and other SLs for these purposes), [[Task Force]], [[Squadron]], [[Task Group]], [[Division]], [[Echelon_unit#Task_Element|Task Element]], [[Ship]] (Flag Officer with no other posting).
