   **General** - A Talon General is a senior commander with in the War machine. The generals have served thousands of years in the Talon War machine and displays this experience through astronomical sized responsibility he carries. Traditionally a General will command a Planetary Division, a force large enough to conduct operations on a planetary scale moreover a General will have full administrative command of an entire planets worth of operations. Generals have much confidence in their position, it is at this stage that one begins to become more individual. Without straying to far from doctrine, Generals are known for taking up a more individual image as they begin to be given more freedoms in their uniform and how they use the assets in their command.

    **High General** - Seen as the height of any Talon's service the rank of High General is one that all Talon commander's of the War machine strive to achieve. A High General is a senior Overseer, charged with one of the most vital assets in the Empire; The Solar Army.

**Grand General** - This is a political position held by extremely old talon overseer and is seen to be both a retirement rank and an extreme leadership role. This rank holds many staff roles that are completed above a solar level. The most common task by any Grand General is that of monitoring multiple Solar armies across systems, making sure that the High Generals (Solar Commanders) that control them are following with the laws and guidelines of the Talon empire. Most Grand Generals will oversee a certain amount of Solar armies, ranging between 3-5 armies however this is flexibly. The Grand General will act as a lifeline maintaining the ability of the High General or else the Purity inquisition will visit the Solar army and sort it out.
