In short, the starting point of the SGA story is "thousands of years ago, the Wraith
have overwhelmed the Ancients, who eventually left the Atlantis and retreated to Earth
through the stargate".
At the beginning of the SGA series this idea made sense and was a very exciting one,
because we've found out more about the Ancients, about their fate and we had the
opportunity to see the amazing city.
Facts :
- a swarm of drones can easily destroy a hive ship
- Atlantis has many drones
- the Lantean battleships had drones as well
- the Ancients also had sattelites powerful enough to cut hive ships in half
- the Atlantis shield held for a while until the city was abandoned
- the Ancients knew how to build ZPM's and drones
According to the Omnipedia (Wraith hive ship) "There are at least 21 hive ships in
the same quadrant of the Pegasus Galaxy that Atlantis is in, and at least 60 in total."
Given the facts mentioned above , i find it hard to understand how come the Ancients
were unable to deal with those 60 hive ships ! all they needed was to stay behind the
shield and use the drones against the hives that came into orbit .
What do you think about this ? Are there in fact much more hive ships (thousands
or tens of thousands), or the starting point of the SGA plot is flawed ?
