Hoarder: You insist on keeping your best resources in reserve 'because we might need them later'
Honourable: You are overly concerned about civilians, especially civilians near you.

Romantic: You glory in the grand battle and can be easily drawn into it.
Secretly Crazy: You are secretly, or not so secretly, completely batshit. Unlike massive psychological issues, where you're basically sane but flawed, secretly crazy people are actually loopy, and prone to occasional fits of outright insanity and self destruction.
Temper: You have a nasty Temper and subordinates fear to deliver you bad news.
They're all my men: You care for the men and women under your command, not under your command, and even the ones fighting to kill you. You have to rescue every escape pod, care for every refugee, and absolutely refuse to kill when an enemy can be taken alive.

Insubordinate: Your Fleet had a habit of dashing off and doing stuff you wish it wouldn't.
Only an idiot would think to use _____: Old technology is bad technology- and you've cut costs by getting rid of the- often bulky- countermeasures to such a weapon. As a result you have a glaring weakness that a savvy enemy could exploit.

Strong _____ Tradition: Your fleet has some sort of tradition that each and every member strives to uphold- and one that comes into conflict with your command style frequently. Whether refusing to ambush an unaware enemy, or broadcasting their intentions before every battle, your fleet is a fine upstanding naval force- except when it conflicts with their tradition.
