[QUOTE="Peterson, post: 2287289, member: 21431"] Okay here is the post on the PL of the Mycab Sector - hidden via spolier links. (Thanks genshou). The Collective [sblock] The Collective's Progress Level can best be determined as a "solid PL 6" wiith a few cutting edge PL 7 examples. For example, the Collective have Slow-Charge Lasers which have a rate of fire equal to single (aka - they can only fire once per round, regardless of feats and base attack bonus), yet their medical technologies are top of the line. They have genetic engineering - as evidenced by the Flexes, Ken and Fayne ([I]Modernized, Issue #3[/I] will feature the Gene-Spliced), nanobots, even Biocort (see D20 Future on that item). They regularly make use of Mecha and Power Armor, and have FTL space travel (non-realistic, cause this is more a Space Opera than Hard Sci Fi).[/sblock] The Frontier [sblock] The Frontier can be considered the battleground between the "natives" and the Collective. Progress Level here is best called "Mixed Bag" because there is everything from PL 4 to PL 6 found on these "backwater" planets. For example, in one city on the planet of Sorrow, you might find hover vehicles, high-tech hospitals, and relatively easy living. Yet, on the other side of the planet, people may be plowing farm fields with a Dael (a beast of burden, native on Sorrow) or driving gas-powered motorcycles and toting firearms. [/sblock] The Commerce Alliance [sblock] You haven't read about the Commerce Alliance as of yet, but you will soon enough.

[/sblock] The Mycabri [sblock] The gray-skinned Mycabri have a "high PL 5" as well.

[/sblock] I truly hope this sums up the PL for you readers - if you have any questions, you can always ask here, or via my email SleepDepCreations (at) gmail (dot) com. Just do me a favor and title the subject line "[I]Border Wars[/I]" and [B]include the gist of your question [/B] in the subject line as well. That way, if it ends up in the spam folder, I can quickly find it. Thanks for the continued interest. Peterson [/QUOTE]
