I generally just manually edit the ranks. The default ranks given usually chop the two lowest ranks out anyway, so I add them back in by renaming the exsisting, and manually adding more to the top.

As far as rank structures go, this is what I currently use;
         Fleet               
10   Grand Admiral            
9   Fleet Admiral         
8   Admiral             
7   Rear Admiral            
6   Fleet Commander      
5   Captain               
4   Commander         
3.   Sub Commander         
2   Lieutenant                   
1   Ensign               

   Army
10   Grand Marshal
9      Marshal
8   General
7   Major  General
6   Brigadier
5   Colonel
4   Major
3.   Captain
2   Lieutenant
1   Subaltern

Is there a way to add rank themes? I see on the Miscelaneous tab I can add Name and Cmdr themes. When starting a new game the list of rank themes is much shorter so I assume they need extra formatting to cover rank abbreviations. I usually want to add one or two lower ranks to a new game which means manually editing every rank all the way down.

Also, I assume a few people have their own themes they use, are there any posted on the forums? I can't seem to see anything. Some of the included themes are woefully short and I thought there might be some more complete ones shared.

Edit: I found the thread discussing normal naming themes, so if they aren't in the game yet I can add them from there. Still not sure if ranks are an option.
