Frolechi Question IV

What forms of teleportation (not counting spacecraft with jumpdrives, which belongs in another question) do the Frolechi have regular access to? (I'm not completely happy with this, but if I keep procrastinating I don't know when it'll be posted.)

1. Just the Stargate.

2. The Stargate and one or more supergates.

3. Along with 1 or 2, their High Elf or High Elves has learned teleportation spells of some sort.

4. Along with 1 or 2, they have a teleportal and/or ring-transporter network.

5. Along with 1 or 2, they have a few portable teleportation items.

6. A combination of 1 or 2 with 3, 4, and/or 5.

7. Something else (please specify).

Please remember to include the number(s) of your preferred option(s) when you vote.

*******

Answer: 4 wins via tiebreaker, with 2 being assumed.

2 + 3, they have access to gates and super gates, and some of them have learned spells that can be used for similar effect.

Poll remains open until either tomorrow or Monday (depending on how long it takes me to get the new Question into a postable form), and if there's still a tie by then, I'll break it.

Frolechi Question V

How are the Frolechi on jumpship technology?

1. The Frolechi have not progressed from supergates to jumpships.

2. While having no jumpships of their own, they have a small number salvaged, bought, or stolen from other polities.

3. They have built a small (single-digit) number of large jumpships.

4. They possess a moderate (low double digits) fleet of large jumpships.

5. The factories of the Frolechi system allow them to be a net exporter of jumpships.

6. Fairly small jumpships are an important innovation of Frolechi magical engineering.

7. Something else (please specify).

Please remember to include the number(s) of your preferred option(s) when you vote.

*******

Answer: 2 has five votes, and wins, while 3 and 4 have two each.

2, 3, or 4, sound about right.

How can we expect these options to compare to other polities?

2 sounds most useful. If the Frolechi have too much overt power they aren't likely to be truly allied with the Earthpeople.
