* Ships with military engines can only be escorted by a ship with a military jump drive.
* Ships with commercial engines can be escorted by ships with either military or commercial jump drives.
* The maximum size of ship that can be escorted through has to be less than the jump ship and the jump drive rating. For example, if you have a 28 000 tons jump ship, you will only be able to open a wormhole for ships of 28 000 tons or less, regardless of your jump drive efficiency.
