| - | **Foldships** have complete FoMASC Drives and have the ability to make point to point folds without assistance from other vessels. Such vessels tend to be considered valuable by [[astral vanguard]] commanders for their monetary and strategic value. Often include capital ships, heavy cruisers and scout vessels. | + | Foldships have complete FoMASC Drives and have the ability to make point to point folds without assistance from other vessels.

| - | **Fold Docks** are lightly armored automated utility ships that consist of a chassis, reactor and drive system, often fragile in appearance but large enough to dock with up to thirty vessels at once and carry many more within its distortion field. They are designed to carry jump ships without a fold-capable flagship across long distance, when jump drives are not available. | + | Fold Docks are lightly armored automated utility ships that consist of a chassis, reactor and drive system, often fragile in appearance but large enough to dock with up to thirty vessels at once and carry many more within its distortion field.

| - | **Fold Gates** are monolithic structures with the capacity to create permanent, two-way, multi-kilometer wide folds between eachother. Jump ships and civilian vessels with older [[MASC_Drive|MASC Drives]] are expected to take these to move between systems, and many fold ships may elect to take them to conserve power and shorten travel times. | + | Fold Gates are monolithic structures with the capacity to create permanent, two-way, multi-kilometer wide folds between eachother.

| - | **Jumpships** are military and civilian ships with incomplete FoMASC drives that depend on their supporting flagship to carry them between systems. They can make relatively fast 'Fold Jumps' towards any Fold Gate or a Fold Dock that is acting as an anchor, and can ride with their FoldShip by extending its distortion field to encompass themselves, and contribute power to ensure the fleet travels safely and quickly to its destination. An entire fleet of jumpships in proper formation can move through foldspace with their flagship as easily as it does. | + | Jumpships are military and civilian ships with incomplete FoMASC drives that depend on their supporting flagship to carry them between systems.
