Novayan Stellar Commonwealth military doctrines

The Armed Forces of the Novayan Stellar Commonwealth, being a militaristic hyperpower in the Void, utilized different military doctrines when it comes to military operations.
==List of Existing Military Doctrines==
===Covert Operations Doctrine===
The Covert Operations Doctrine is a military doctrine calling for covert operations and espionage. The Covert Operations Doctrine involve NSC Special Forces infiltrating and acquiring any targets which were essential to the NSC's missions. The Covert Operations Doctrine also calls for espionage operations, behind-the-scenes tasks which sees NSC agents acquiring intelligence and information the NSC will use to exploit against the enemy. The Covert Operations Doctrine saw the creation of the NSC's own Ghost Program, created during the War against the Sith which spilled into Universe Sierra-Charlie after the NSC took over the Confederacy but did not intervene in the Zerg's capture of Sarah Kerrigan.
===Hearts and Minds Doctrine===
The Hearts and Minds Doctrine is a military doctrine revolving around winning the hearts and minds of the people. The Hearts and Minds Doctrine calls for military forces to assist civil workers in building, rebuilding, repairing and rehabilitating buildings, infrastructures and roads, provide security to those who desperately needed it, train security personnel, and provide the locals with free school supplies, water supplies, medicines, food, vaccines, housing, technology and necessities. Development of the world through providing land rights, livestock development, vocational training and development banks, and rolling out government initiatives including rooting out corruption, establish a democratic form of government, and establishing a legitimate police force, and military initiatives through combating enemy forces until a proper army is trained and developed were also part of the Hearts and Minds Doctrine.
The Hearts and Minds Doctrine have been primarily the most commonly used doctrine ever since the Novayan Stellar Commonwealth, reformed from the Greater Novayan Federation, went on five Hearts and Minds campaigns. The Hearts and Minds Doctrine is also used to help local law enforcement, military and militia units maintain order.
===Mobile Warfare Doctrine===
The Mobile Warfare Doctrine invokes combined arms tactics inspired from the AirLand Battle and Blitzkrieg doctrines. Centered around mobile forces, armored tanks exploit the focal points, points which were gaps in any defense and which can be exploited by said armored tanks, allowing for a breakthrough. Mechanized infantry units were sent to assist armored tanks while regular infantry units eliminate any leftover hostiles. The Mobile Warfare Doctrine also calls for the formation of fire brigades used as rapid response units to react to enemy breakthroughs and other critical issues.
===Network-Centric Warfare Doctrine===
The Network-Centric Warfare Doctrine seeks to interlink all aspects of warfare with sophisticated computing networks to leverage informational superiority into full-spectrum dominance of warfare. The Network-Centric Warfare Doctrine calls for NSC soldiers to be equipped with information technology and integrate small-arms with high-tech equipment, provide communications and command and control at the infantry soldier level, and look at the individual infantry soldier as a complete unit rather than a segment of a larger force. NSC soldiers were equipped with gadgets used for dismounted combat and urban warfare.
The Network-Centric Warfare Doctrine is the second most common military doctrine in use.
===Occult-Centric Warfare Doctrine===
A staple doctrine of the Germanian sectorial military establishment, the Occult-Centric Warfare Doctrine revolves around the use of occult forces to help Germanian forces deployed in overseas military operations gain the upper hand and advantage over the enemy forces. Major proponents include Generalfeldmarschall and Oberstgruppenfuhrer Claudia Blavatsky von Scholernburg, head of the Germanian Occult Division and overseer of the Phoenix Project, a Germanian military project involving reanimation through occult means, leading to many non-NSC soldiers becoming order-abiding and unintelligent zombies/shamblers and some retaining their intelligence.
===Paranormal Warfare Doctrine===
Already created by the Greater Novayan Federation but developed, fleshed-out and used after the GNF was reformed into the Novayan Stellar Commonwealth, the Paranormal Warfare Doctrine, also known as the Occult Warfare Doctrine and not to be confused with the Occult-Centric Warfare Doctrine, calls for the use of thaumaturgy, the integration of the anomalous into the technology's design (called paratechnology) and its replication, development of eigenweapons (anomalous weapons of mass destruction), and the use of locally-produced esoteric materials. The Paranormal Warfare Doctrine saw the creation of thaumaturgical reinforcement symbols etched into any NSC warship's outer hull at key locations (belt armor, command bridge, and guns). It also saw the creation of military paratechnology capable of allowing
===Superior Firepower Doctrine===
The Superior Firepower Doctrine calls for combined arms warfare and throwing shells, not men, at the enemy. Long-range fire support and artillery units were used to bombard enemy positions and defenses and any fortified areas which require large amounts of firepower to bear against. The Superior Firepower Doctrine supports either Integrated Support or Dispersed Support and AirLand Battle or Shock and Awe.
==Other military doctrines==
Some military doctrines were developed and utilized by some NSC military officers. Among those military officers who developed their own military doctrines were Grand Marshal Borealis III, Lord Admiral Borealis I, and Governess-Militant Gallia Norsoutha.
===Grand Marshal Borealis' Doctrine===
Grand Marshal Borealis devised a military doctrine involving highly-trained and highly-equipped units and tactics and strategies integrated into the doctrine, calling for defensive and offensive operations and also supporting covert operations. Buildings were fortified and comes with embrasures, making them technically bunkers. Combining network-centric warfare with defensive and mobile warfare doctrines allowed for NSC forces to fight equally.
===Lord Admiral's Doctrine===
Lord Admiral Borealis I, Governor-General of the Crusader Sector and Military Governor of Deimos IV, follows his own doctrine involving the Lord Admiral's Military Reservists and the Lord Admiral's Black Guard. This involved a massed conscript army, augmented by elite forces, defensive strategies, and overwhelming firepower and use of chemical, biological and radiological weapons, fired from specialized Shatterer ordinance bunkers.
===Governess-Militant Gallia's Doctrine===
Governess-Militant of the Meridian Commonwealth Gallia Norsoutha combines the Superior Firepower Doctrine with the Massed Assault Doctrine, doctrines which were already in use by the Meridian Commonwealth prior to her becoming its Governess-Militant. Enemy forces were whittled down with attrition through massed numbers and overwhelming firepower until the enemy breaks or a breakthrough is achieved. Governess-Militant Gallia supported the use of this doctrine; her 1st Meridian Army Group have been using this doctrine.
The Meridian Expeditionary Troopers, by extension, nearly the Meridian Commonwealth use this doctrine.
===Admiral Audrey's Doctrine===
Admiral Audrey Norsoutha's doctrine calls for combining and integrating NSC forces with local forces in the fight and the use of defensive tactics, mobile warfare tactics and scorched earth tactics, that is, heavy static defense, quick response and heavy denials of area and assets. Admiral Audrey's forces were composed of NSC and Imperial forces after the battles of Zakuul, Exegol, Exegol-2, and Byss, the latter of which saw her becoming the current military dictator of the NSC-controlled Commonwealth of Byss at the end of Operation Sovereign Justice.
