it makes me wonder why do the ancients who disapprove of voilence have weapons on outpost. espescially earth there was no need for so many drones, cause if there was an enemy in the SG universe that made the anicents have to set up defenses on some planets i think that they would have been metioned. thoughts on this and sr if a thread like this has been made.

From The Mote In God's Eye by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle (1975)
"Gently, Sandy," First Lieutenant Cargill interjected.
"Dr. Horvath, I take it you've never been involved in military intelligence? No, of course not. But you see, in intelligence work we have to go by capabilities, not by intentions. If a potential enemy can do something to you, you have to prepare for it, without regard to what you think he wants to do."La vie est une tragédie - Tout le monde meurt à la fin.

The ancients fled to MW, then went to Pegasus before fleeing back to MW. they mad eenemies, enemies who could one day follow them to their sanctuary. Makes sense to prepare for the worst, and hope for the best. Isn't that what nuclear weapons are?sigpic

Knox is a logical misspelling due to Fort Knox
yest the need for weapons on an outpost would be clear to even the most blind persons. Afterall, an outpost is a place where your people live and if there is a possible threat (always around) you need to defend. Like he police in first cases, then comes the defence force.
if an outpost has not got that it be doomed to be taken and destroyed

The Nox have exceptional defensive capabilities, as well as regenerative capabilities. They really don't need weapons, and they wouldn't use them anyways due to their philosophies.
The Ancients, however, do not share those philosophies, and so it would be logical and intelligent to have weapons placed at outposts.If you wish to see more of my rants, diatribes, and general comments, check out my Twitter account SirRyanR!
