Sheridan: Are you trying to cheer me up?
Ivanova: No sir, wouldn't dream of it.
Sheridan: Good, I hate being cheered up. It's depressing.
Ivanova: So in that case we're all going to die horrible, painful, lingering deaths.
Sheridan: Thank you, I feel so much better now.

Yes, as our resident Pak'ma'ra mentioned, you can edit your posts. Correctly used spoiler tags should look like this. Just leave out the underscores, I used them to make the thing visible.

[_spoiler]Something which spoils.[/_spoiler]

As for the question itself:

<table bgcolor=black><tr><td bgcolor=black><font size=1 color=white>Spoiler:</font></td></tr><tr><td><font size=2 color=black>I think that a mage's connection to a ship, staff or similar item is less intense. They are similar to a place of power, but less important.

I also believe that a mage is able to survive the loss of a place of power, but that depends on the person and how greatly he/she relied on it.

About conncting to the tech *below* the Shadow programming, well, there are probably different ways to achieve it. One involves learning a spell language like Galen's and casting the "void spell". But spell languages are individual and many may be unable to learn it.</font></td></tr></table>

Move the /SPOILER box to the end of your text. Changing

<table bgcolor=black><tr><td bgcolor=black><font size=1 color=white>Spoiler:</font></td></tr><tr><td><font size=2 color=black> </font></td></tr></table>

to

<table bgcolor=black><tr><td bgcolor=black><font size=1 color=white>Spoiler:</font></td></tr><tr><td><font size=2 color=black>
Hiding what is inside.
</font></td></tr></table>

<table bgcolor=black><tr><td bgcolor=black><font size=1 color=white>Spoiler:</font></td></tr><tr><td><font size=2 color=black>Galens ship was destroyed- but the fact that he has a new one and if u remember many of the mages died in the hiding place so its very possible that he implanted his tech into a new ship. As for kane and other cloister mages dissapearing- thats not a basic spell - if u are talking about galens one equation spell- because that uses shadow skin- and they dont disappear- galen in crusade disappears by using an acutally longer equation attached wit his staff- remember in the first episode when he fights the drakh but can't be seen (no shadow skin) Technomages dont need to be one with their tech in order to use the basic 7 equations- galen had figured them out before he was 'one' </font></td></tr></table>

Any mage technology which they wish to

<table bgcolor=black><tr><td bgcolor=black><font size=1 color=white>Spoiler:</font></td></tr><tr><td><font size=2 color=black>bond permanantly with requires a piece of their crysalysis. Galen's staff contains a piece as does his original ship. I believe that the larger and more complex the technology the more crysalysis is used. A place of power would require a more intimate connection than a ship. This means that the loss of his ship did not affect Galen as badly as a place of power being destroyed would. Galen probably has more than enough crysalysis to connect to a new ship and the Grimlis(sp?) would probably be happy have something to do while trapped in the hiding place assuming they have the needed materials. </font></td></tr></table>
