Alright, so you want to get friendly with the Imperial Navy in Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader? It's pretty straightforward, really. You'll want to head over to the Drusus's Blessing and have a chat with Chartist Captain Austerius Thorfast. He's your main contact in the Furibundus Systerm for all things Navy-related.
The main thing to keep in mind is that your standing with them is measured by Reputation. The higher your Reputation, the better your rank and the cooler stuff they'll offer you. Here's a breakdown of how the ranks stack up:
