How Technologically Advanced is the World of AoC??

With the fact that the races are returning to the planet after THOUSANDS of years, how advanced is the world going to be? There's a "scientific metropolis" as well, which points me to chemistry and physics.. 

So does that mean there will be guns (gunpowder or laser)?
Can we build a motorcycle or helicopter mount?
Would you be able to connect two scientific nodes by train, now turning a stage-coach robbery into a train-robbery?
Could you build a subway or trolley system to travel faster within a Metro? 
Can we plant mine-fields and electric fences around certain areas of our metro?
Submarines and battleships to help attach coastline metros?
Can you build mechanical siege weapons like Star Wars Walkers?

Where is the line drawn between science and fantasy in AoC?

(Some of that was way over the top, but you get my point, lol)

Comments

  • No gunpowder confirmed. No steampunk confirmed. Theme is high fantasy magic. Zoi fast travel (scientific Metro perk) will be either airship (mentioned) or portal (unconfirmed)
  • I am also hoping for no magic tech outside of gunpowder.
    Mining robots are still robots regardless if they are powered by fossil fuel or magic.
