[QUOTE="Ralts Bloodthorne, post: 1779422, member: 6390"] OK, there are several ways you can move a world... Huge induction engines, powered and cooled by tidal forces in the center of the Pacific Ocean (for example) A small singularity, at a highly precise distance from the planet, dragging the planet behind it. A massive "hyperwave" field that would drop it into hyperspace and move it at about 1.1 C or up to about 1.5 C Artifical worm hole creation that will drop it through the wormhole. Moving theorized "settings" in the galactic makeup. By changing and tweaking a few "settings" a whole world could be moved. (See the novel "Moving Mars") Temporal displacement: This is partially what was done to the Terra Sol system in my Nova Wars Setting. By dropping the system somewhat out of "normal" time, the rest of the galaxy keeps moving past the "out of phase" system. In any case, moving the planet, you would need a sun, my recommendation is either a fusion/fission mix, probably just past the orbit of the moon, rotating quicker than moon. A Rosetta pattern, multiple worlds orbiting a single (possibly fake) star at an equal distance, at equal speed, in the same "sweet spot" for the race. The sun pulls the planets along as it slowly accellerates, driven by pinpoint fusion torch. (I believe this was shown very accurately in Ringworld Engineers) As for PL levels? Well, it's not so much that, but more along the lines of how many resources they are willing to allocate to such a project. I'd say you could start this with PL 6.5 Hope that helps. [/QUOTE]
