Development History

Shortly after the international crisis involving the Dyriiad Federation and Kalu, it was realized that the DEFCON System was not adequate for encompassing all threats, and different systems were needed with it. Thus, for standardization, the military designers at the Republic Research and Development Commission decided to create a new system, that encompassed virtually every threat to Erid'Lor. They ended up creating the NAMCON System.

The National Military Condition Alert System (NAMCON / NMCAS)

NAMCON 0A: Erid’Lor on brink of falling to invading foreign military forces

NAMCON 0B (Localized Alert): Eridite forces being defeated by invading foreign military forces

NAMCON 1: Erid’Lor being invaded by foreign military forces

NAMCON 2: Erid’Lor engaged in overseas war / Erid’Lor on brink of being invaded / Erid’Lor being blockaded

NAMCON 3: Erid’Lor on brink of being engaged in overseas war / Erid’Lor in great danger of being attacked by terrorist or rogue forces / Erid’Lor on brink of being blockaded

NAMCON 4: Erid’Lor threatened by war or blockade with foreign nation / Erid’Lor in moderate danger of being attacked by terrorist or rogue forces

NAMCON 5: Erid’Lor suspects threat of attack by foreign nation / Erid’Lor in some danger of being attacked by terrorist or rogue forces

NAMCON 6: Erid’Lor suspects danger of being attacked by terrorist or rogue forces

NAMCON 7: Peacetime; normal military readiness and systems on normal
