Wormholes

Do wormholes allow transit to other wormholes? I've seen AI fleets and disappear appear at wormholes, but I can't seem to follow or use them.

Obviously this has huge strategic implications with regard to choke points.

yes, to put it simply.  if you look in your civ research tree, there is a wormhole travel item.  this must be researched before you can use wormholes.  to use a wormhole itself, right click the center of the wormhole - anywhere in inside the interior ring - to move your ships through it.  if you are tracking a ship (zoom into one or double click the icon - not the ship - so you are following it w/out you moving the screen) then you will folllow the ship through the wormhole.  after it has been used once, you can click the wormhole and a thick line will lead to the other wormhole it goes to.

At least one artifact also allows you to travel through the wormhole.

Jump Field Generator (the one that reduces AM lost in phase jumps/wormhole jumps by 30%) is the artifact that permits wormhole travel regardless if it is researched or not. It's provided on your home world on Ancient Gifts.

Like said before You need to research first or get the artifact. There is nothing beter than distracting the enmy fleet on one side of the map while you pop up from behind. He then asks How did you do that? And you say I'm magic.
