Units are promoted from 00 upwards, ascending until they reach RL, the rank that has authority and local command over most Civil Protection units. This is often described as being pseudo-hierarchical. Rank points is a modern and lore-accurate system that is used in conjunction with taglines to give most ground units an idea of seniority, rather than immediate authority over each other. Some examples of how full unit names are formatted include:
Some servers may add additional numerical ranks, or change the order in which the ranks are listed, such as having SqL come before OfC in the hierarchy. The following table is listed in increasing format, with authority increasing as the list continues. These divisions will usually be managed by a DvL, and often units become eligible to specialize when they reach 04. HELIX for medical, GRID for engineering, JURY for interrogation, etc). Typically servers that utilize the 05-01 SeC system will also have specific divisions that specialize in certain fields (i.e. The rank of SeC (often interchangeable with CmD) is mainly an administrative rank, and is typically described to have some sort of augmentation or specialized authority alongside the Overwatch Transhuman Arm.
The prefix used for the ranks depend on the preference of the server using the system, and varies frequently from server to server. The numbered ground unit ranks, 5 through 1, are typically prefixed with either a lowercase i (a misinterpretation of the Civil Protection armbands in Half-Life 2 reading "c17:i4") or the digit 0. The most common and most reused ranking system is the 05-01 SeC system, which gives a superior unit immediate authority similar to military ranks.
