History & Background

The Kostov Confederate Navy safeguards the Kostov Confederate Republic and its interests and oversees a broad swathe of territory beyond its borders. Its proper name is "The Worker's Unified Fleet of the Kostov Confederation Republic". It is a professional organization with skilled personnel who are trained to a very high standard. Its solid and reliable vessels, stained and scarred from years of hard service and close action, are a welcome sight patrolling the disparate worlds of the region.

There is fierce (though generally good-natured) rivalry between the crews of Krivak class Frigates and their counterparts aboard Leningrad class Destroyers.
