Also, I doubt the Concordia was the flag ship for the whole Confederation Navy, perhaps only the fleet led by Tolwyn. And was Tolwyn really a Vice Admiral at this time? I recall him being as such in The Secret Missions manuals, but was he also a Rear Admiral at some point since then? - Wedge

: IIRC, the ''Concordia'' was the flagship of the 14th Fleet (which is where the yellow star emblem on her hull comes from). ''Fleet Action'' establishes Tolwyn as a Rear Admiral. I don't recall him being called anything but "Admiral Tolwyn" in the game proper. It's not an insubstantial rank - Rear Admiral Dayan in ''Action Stations'' commands Task Force 21, complete with ''"two battlewagons, the carrier ''Ark Royal'', and some damned good cruiser and frigate commanders."'' A good number of cruisers and frigates, at that.
