The Rochevieux Royal Navy is the primary military force of the Principality of Rochevieux.
History
Since the founding of the nation in 1737, the Royal Navy has protected the people and interests of the Principality. In the Rochevais Golden Age, it helped make Rochevieux into a global power, which it continued to be (with a few setbacks in the Dark Days) until the Red Revolution of 1984, which halted the technological development that has helped the Principality survive against larger and numerically superior foes. However, with the restoration of the monarchy in 2016, the Prince vowed to revitalize the Navy along with other aspects of Rochevieux damaged in the Revolution and the ensuing Communist regime.
The Prince has expressed the desire to create a modern fighting force equipped with the latest technology. As such, he has decided to sacrifice numbers for superior training and equipment.
Tactics
The Loyalist insurgency during Communist rule created the basis for modern Rochevais tactics. Small bands of guerrillas operating from hidden bases launched coordinated, precise attacks on important targets, such as supply bases and enemy leaders. These same guerrillas form the core of veteran soldiers that train today's Navy, emphasizing speed, stealth, and precision rather than brute force.
