The Foreign Levy is the final component of this fleet, an incalculably large contingent of adventurers whose experience in fighting on dry land makes up for Limsa's historical lack thereof.ġ galleass (Bonnibell), 4 galleys, 1 galleonĪs a naval power, Limsa Lominsa has ruled the waves with its fleets-but the same cannot be said for its army, which is undeniably frail when compared to those of the other Eorzean city-states. It includes pirate vessels that answered the Admiral's call, armed merchant ships that have been requisitioned, and retired warships that have been refit for service. The privateer fleet, on the other hand, is an auxiliary force. The Yellowjackets, once infantry of the Barracuda, have since been granted independence so that they may keep the peace throughout Lominsan territory. While the formal Lominsan navy and the Knights of the Barracuda initially preserved their separate command structure, it was completely integrated into the Maelstrom following the Seventh Umbral Calamity.

The former is the Maelstrom’s main force, and is composed of five of the Lominsan Armada’s original nine squadrons. Maelstrom Command oversees two armadas: the Crimson Fleet and the privateers. Nym was no more, and her surviving citizens abandoned Vylbrand to seek their fortunes elsewhere. However, the force of the whirlpool and subsequent smaller waves swept away the civilization’s capital. Through time bought with the lives of many soldiers and scholars, this strategy gave the townsfolk time to escape to the mountains. As towering waves came crashing upon the city, they summoned an even mightier whirlpool to swallow the sea’s wrath. Sailing vessels into the Bay of Nym-what is now called Galadion Bay-the Marines traced a magick geometry upon the water’s surface. In the days before the coming of the Sixth Umbral Calamity’s great floods, the Nymian Royal Marines convened the Grand Company to save the lives of their citizens. The name “Maelstrom” originates with an earlier Grand Company on Vylbrand-one established by the seafaring civilization of Nym on the eve of the Fifth Astral Era. This move granted her the power to command all ships in Lominsan waters, pirate and merchant alike, and effectively created a comprehensive command through which she could wield Limsa’s entire might. Having resolved to establish a Grand Company to stand against the Garlean Empire, Merlwyb took Admiral Agatzahr as her example and proclaimed herself Chief Admiral of the Maelstrom in 1572.
