@MarkGardner Then you're beyond the Star Trek time. By this technology should have evolved, but then there is still the surprise factor. Some alien comes up with a new technology, a new kind of attack, humans have to adapt to.

Because they have be. If they weren't technologically advanced, they wouldn't have the technology to come here.

@resch Can we also assume it is as heavy as an iron ring, 25-30 grams? 40 Rings would be ~1.2 Kilograms resulting in 400 fireballs or 4000 windblasts.

Are your mages pretty common or are they pretty rare troops, like one in 1000 soldiers is a mage?

There wouldn't be any True Believers left. They' believe on purpose to banish the demons which wouldn't make them a true believer. It's confusing.

@Separatrix "I see a lot of cripplingly poor people scarcely better than slaves" So, where's the difference to the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave? In GDR there weren't so many poor people compared to modern day Germany.

Correction on Space Turtles: They are not travelling to planets, they are carrying the planets themselves: Great A'Tuin for example.

@kingledion You should take a look at Kerbal Space Program. Though it may be just a game, it gives you a pretty good impression of the challenges in going to the mars and back. Or you could just watch the Scott Manley tutorials on Youtube.
