All planets are the realm of the Codex. Why do you ask?

You could use the NPC "Groups" Template to submit that. It should work for such a thing.

Alrighty, so this is a bit of a prickly one. Recently, I was given command of a sizeable portion of the IC First Order fleet, and have been wanting to publish said fleet in the codex in order to sort of have it have some basis in Chaos-canon. Now, as it sits, fleets and task forces aren't even the size of star destroyers, and said submission is going to have a whole heap of them, and definitely exceed upwards of twenty thousand meters. If I were to write a submission for such a fleet, using the current template as a basis, would it be kosher?

No, you are to stick to the parameters provided in the Task Force Fleet template.Robogeber said:

So I got a Canon planet submission denied, which is entirely fine, it just means I need to know: What is required in a Canon plant submission? i.e. a thorough history from the canon planet to now? etc.
Before I second chance it, I would like to be aware of the requirements. Thanks!

As I told you when I denied the submission – a Codex resub of an extant Canon planet (or Canon anything else) is supposed to heavily expand on what is already present. In the case of a planet, you might take a look at these examples: Corellia, Panatha, Atrisia.
Usually there are two types of Canon Codex resubmissions.

- The Wookieepedia article is a stub, and the author wants to breathe life and unique flavor into a previously underexplored subject.
- The planet / location / species has seen extensive changes on Chaos through RP, Events, Faction expansion, etc. The author gathers all these sources, sums them up in the history section, links any pertinent Codex submissions, and notes any other significant matters.

Yes it does, but it explains it more thoroughly (which I needed). The references help too.
Much thanks!!

With the Great Galactic War [TM pending] being a thing, I'd actually be sort of interested in asking again if I could sub a fleet in the codex, using the NPC combat unit template. I noted that submissions like this (x) were being pended approval, and was curious, if the same could be said for fleets? I won't divuldge into the nitty gritty, such as meterage, gun counts and the like, but would enjoy having such a unit be able to be canonised for the upcoming conflict.

I have a question about Task Forces.
Currently companies have a designated amount of combat and civilian ships they can field at once. In the template it says to keep those numbers from table I in mind when developing your composition but in the total length it says the max is 2000 but says to list all of the configurations of the composition. Does that mean in one Task Force if you're tier say IV like mine you can have a max of 8k meters in one task force but must field that 8k in configurations of 2000 meters? Or does that mean that no matter what tier your company is you must adhere to a maximum of 2000 meters total for Task Force Compositions? If it is the latter could I ask for the judges to reconsider those rules so that they sync up better with the Factory Guidelines and allow companies and writers to better utilize Factory assets?

Task Forces should be 2km maximum, regardless of company or faction size. As outlined in the template:

An NPC creation is optional.
So if I wanted to turn a previous character into an NPC, am a required to sub the character as an NPC, or can I just link there character sheet and leave it at that?
Character in question is Nickolas Imura.

I'm writing a FO non-combative military doctor character and am putting together a group to do medically-centered RP.
I wanted to form a list of diseases or health-factors that we may see in our threads.
Does Chaos have biological weaponry that has particular effects upon characters?
How about unique diseases? If not, would it be possible to make up my own illnesses, viruses, and whatnot? What would be my restrictions, if any (I know nanatech is banned)? Should I submit viruses as non-playable species in the Codex?
Thanks in advance. c:

There's no particular 'list' of Chaos-made biological weaponry, so your best bet would be to trawl the species / technology forums via the search function. That, or simply post a thread to the RP discussion calling out to writers who might've submitted such things in the past.
As for submitting diseases, you'd either go to the Factory or Codex – the line is honestly kind of blurred, and biological weaponry has been submitted through both in the past. Viruses and bacteria would traditionally go under species (non-sentient), but if your only intent is to weaponize them, you could go through the Factory as well.
Hope that answers your question. If anything remains unclear, feel free to @mention me and I'll do my best to clarify.
