Just to clarify, I don't plan on retiring. I am all in for Star Citizen and whatever comes between now and then. Having a King and a High King ensures that you always have a empowered leader to alter our presence to each new world we decide to be a part of.

There are some differences in powers. The King does have sweeping powers, but requires Senate approval to change structure, and the High King reserves veto. I spent a couple months on this.

Section. 3 - Powers of the (GM10) High King / High Queen
Clause 1: The (GM10) High King / High Queen shall have the following powers:
Clause 2: To veto or override any execution of power or privilege by any rank or office in KGB without review or question.
Clause 2: To fill all vacancies in the Supreme Court and/or Senate at any time;
Clause 3: To expel a member or officer of KGB without question or review;
Clause 4: To establish uniform Rules of Membership, and uniform Laws of conduct;
Clause 5: To declare war, grant letters of marquee and reprisal, and make rules concerning captures on land and water;
Clause 6: To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the KGB, or in any Department or Officer thereof.

Section. 4 - Powers of the (GM5) King / Queen
Clause 1: The (GM5) King / Queen shall have the following powers:
Clause 3: To expel a member or officer of KGB (excluding the (GM10) High King / High Queen) without question or review except by the (GM10) KGB High King
Clause 4: To establish uniform Rules of Membership, and uniform Laws of conduct;
Clause 5: To declare war, grant letters of marquee and reprisal, and make rules concerning captures on land and water;
Clause 6: To propose all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the foregoing powers, and all other powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the KGB, or in any Department or Officer thereof. Laws or changes proposed by the (GM5) King / Queen would require majority vote from the KGB Senate, and would be subject to review and potential veto by the (GM10) High King / High Queen.
