Tiers and Up-tiering

On release of an ORBAT only those with an equal tier to the role in question will be able to acquire the slot. 24 hours from release is given for anyone holding the required tier to acquire the slot. Should nobody do so then 24 hours after release the automatic up-tiering process begins. 24 hours after release, anyone with 1 tier below the required tier of any vacant slot can acquire it, known as a 1UP 48 hours after release, 24 hours after 1UP anyone with 2 tiers below the required tier of any vacant slot can acquire it, known as a 2UP Exceptions It is only possible to up-tier a maximum of 2 tiers (2UP) You cannot up-tier in a combat area if you do not hold at least Tier I in that area If you have acquired a Reprimand in the last 7 days In any case, the system will always tell you why you cannot acquire a slot and will state the reason in a tooltip when the cursor is hovered over it. Reprimands are official reports handled by Operations Command when someone violates a unit policy. If you receive a Reprimand you'll not be able to use the up-tiering system from 7 days of the date in which it was raised. You'll know if this is the case, since on the ORBAT it will state the reason for up-tiering being disabled. If you need to query this, speak to Personnel Command.
