Continuing Stargate

[Rasunda]

The Wraith because they the Asurans because they can assimilate me, and the Der'Kal because they seem to enjoy murdering people and torturing their prisoners more than the Goa'uld.

Dr. D

The asurans don't assimilate, the Borg do.

[Dr. Daedalus]

The asurans don't assimilate, the Borg do.

What the Asurans did to Weir counts as assimilation. They do not usually do it like the Borg but they are capable of it.

Dr. D

[Rasunda]

Asurans only put nano bots in humans, they don't convert them to asurans, like the Borg.

[Vampyr]

How the hell do replicators remind you of zombies???

Shambling, mindless, come in droves?

[Sector]

Most definitely the replicators, these things are menace incarnate. They adapt to EVERYTHING. Whatever the hell you come up with, they can counter, which basically means that your solution will have to wipe them all out in a matter of seconds*.

They have no emotions, at all. You can try to fool or lie or at least talk or be a smart-ass to any of the other so called enemies, but a replicator does not feel, and will just turn you into other replicators. Fighting them seems almost pointless.

Perhaps even worse: it's not even their objective to kill you or exterminate you. They will not be happy or sad when they fail to kill you, they cannot be dissuaded from creating more of themselves, which is all they are after. If they win, everything loses forever. There is no escape.

In short, I would be a 1000 times more scared if the replicators actually existed than any of the other races.

* This took a deus ex machina to implement, ofcourse. Not to mention the fact that they first went to another galaxy, and conveniently took every single replicator they got back to the Milky Way. This is something the replicators, if they were real, would never do.

[Fleet Admiral - Earth]

The Der'kal, they are a brutal force that comes in numbers of bilions, just to wipe out all life in a galaxy.

Just wondering how they have billions of people cuz even if they had 10,000 ships with a million people on each, which they don't because of the different ship sizes, then they'd only have 10 billion. I know that is billions technically but 1 million per ship for the 10,000 ships i doubt they have, it seems incredibly unlikely.

Also they have conquered many galaxies and although ours has been the hardest for them i doubt they just walked over the others. meaning they would have lost ships and personnel. they would have made more ships and dispersed their people across them meaning less and less people are on each ship. Also the other ships would eventually get old and have to be replaced. Another factor is whether they're immortal like the wraith or how long their lifespan is and how they reproduce.

My point is it is unlikely they really have billions, they are more likely to have like one or two billion at the most. Don't forget a billion is a helluva lot of der'kal.

How do you know they don't still live on planets in their home galaxy? It may be far away from subspace com would still work.

Actually, you're right. I change my vote to the Replicators.

There were tens of billions of Der'kal when they left their home galaxy... that's the only solid figure we have. And I can say that they're not immortal; they live and die in a lifespan between that of a human and that of a Jaffa.

[RubberJesus]

Aren't you religious, though?

More questions: if you were in command of the ISGC, which enemy race (of the entire franchise) would you be most afraid to face and why? Just curious, and personally I think the Wraith would be the worst... I mean, the others can only kill you. But the Wrath can suck the life out of you, put it back in, rinse, and repeat... forever...

The Goa'uld System Lords: Ruling over an empire that once spanned the entirety of the Milky Way, the System Lords were the dominant force in the galaxy for thousands of years. Consisting of a council of the most-influential of the parasitic aliens, the Lords commanded a fleet of hundreds of motherships and kept entire sectors under control via their legions of Jaffa warriors. The Goa'uld were ultimately brought to their knees, however, by the combined forces of a Replicator invasion, a Tau'ri assault, and a Jaffa rebel uprising.

Replicators (Ida): Created by the android Reese many centuries ago, the Replicators were, for eight years, the most-terrifying foe humanity had ever encountered. Capable of multiplying to incredible numbers in a matter of hours and assimilating all advanced technologies they could into their being, the bug-like robots overran the nearby Ida Galaxy, very nearly wiping out the powerful Asgard. Eventually evolving human-form versions of themselves, the Replicators swarmed into the Milky Way, but were finally destroyed by the Ancient superweapon hidden on Dakara.

Aschen Confederation: Perhaps the most-cunning adversary of Earth, the Aschen are a human race far more advanced than most others in the galaxy, though they lack powerful hyperdrives and real knowledge of the stargate network. In an alternate timeline, they were able to topple the System Lords and take control of Earth, though that plan was thwarted by the alternate SG-1. In reality, the Confederation is the most powerful Milky Way coalition next to the Alliance, and has sided with the Der'kal in their war against it. They are a patient and watchful people, willing to invest decades into a bid for domination... and with their mastery of bioweapons and deceit, they rarely fail.

Wraith: With the distinction of being the only race to actually defeat the almighty Ancients in war, the Wraith are among the deadliest species in the known universe, and the masters of the Pegasus Galaxy. Originally a hybrid of humans and the iratus bug, they have evolved into powerful telepathic "vampires" with awesome abilities. They field an enormous fleet of hive ships and escort vessels, allowing them to pummel any enemy into submission with relative ease. Keeping Pegasus in check through cullings and orbital bombardments, the Wraith are almost completely unchallenged in their reign of terror, though the Atlantis Expedition has had limited success against them.

Ori Crusaders: Led by the ascended kin of the Ancients, the Ori, the crusaders who invaded the Milky Way following the fall of the System Lords are considered the most devastating foe of the pre-Alliance galaxy. With technology and weapons created from the higher knowledge of their "gods," the crusaders swept aside resistance from the Free Jaffa, Earth, and Tok'ra alike. In their three year war they were able to conquer vast tracts of space and shredded all armadas assembled against them. They were finally driven back by a shaky alliance of Milky Way races over Chulak, when the Ancients stepped in and ended hostilities, allowing SG-1 to use the Ark of Truth to destroy the last of the Ori once and for all.

Replicators (Asuran): Unlike their cousins in the Milky Way, the Asurans were created by the Ancients to combat the threat of the Wraith in the Pegasus Galaxy. Conceived of as a nanite force that could attack from within, the Replicators evolved into human-forms who were able to emulate Ancients and their technology perfectly. In their brief war against the Atlantis Expedition and the Wraith 10,000 years later, they were still frighteningly efficient, though Dr. Rodney McKay's brilliant hacking and programming skills were able to punch through their defenses and, with help from a Friendly Replicator ANdroid, destroy them. Now the only Asurans that exist are under the command of former Atlantis leader Elizabeth Weir, trying to find their place in the universe.

Lucian Alliance (Zanous Garrin's): The Lucian Alliance was only a small-time smuggling coalition when it first came to the attention of the SGC, but after only three and a half years of operation, it had grown into a criminal empire that spanned the entire galaxy. Under the direction of its mysterious and extremely-ambitious leader Zanous Garrin, it was even able to go head-to-head with the newly-formed Alliance and win. For a time, it seemed as though Garrin's strategies and resources simply could not be matched, but the brilliant tactics employed by Alliance leaders at the Battle of P9X-335 were too much for even his genius. His fleet destroyed mere moments after his revelation as an android agent of alien powers, Garrin's carefully-crafted organization crumbled to dust.

Der'kal: Arguably the most successful and powerful of any of the galaxy's villains, the Der'kal armada holds the distinction of being the only alien race to conquer Earth. Planning their incursion into the Milky Way for thousands of years, they laid the groundwork carefully and quietly, ensuring that when the time was right, no one could resist them. After the fall of the Ori crusaders to the Ark of Truth, they dispatched the android Zanous Garrin to sow mistrust and suspicion throughout the new Alliance, and a year later, they arrived in full. With their fleet of hundreds of warships, they easily blew past world after world, and after only two years of fighting, fully half the galaxy felt the grip of their occupation. Now the Alliance struggles to hold on in preparation for what could be its last stand, as the sheer might of the alien menace comes down to wipe out everything in its path.

well the Der'kal are the only race we can't instantly kill with our super asgard ownage beams, so I'd say them

[Rasunda]

...and they've build more ships and, do they have kids?
Or do they clone their wariors like the Wraith?

[janus 510]

I would say the der'kal because of the power and amount of ships they have at their disposal and the fact they are the only race to attack earth and win

[Rasunda]

Is that in our reality or in alternet realitys?

[Dodgified]

Is that in our reality or in alternet realitys?

by our reality you mean the reality sg-1 is set in then yes.
alternate realities the goa'uld conquered earth.

and i'm more afraid of the der'kal. They are the worst. and the most advanced.

[Aewon]

They adapt to EVERYTHING.

Not bullets! I believe that if all the armies of Earth were to unite against the Replicators the Ida Replicators would get wiped out. Remember that each time the good guys have fought against Replicators there's only been a handful of humans/Jaffa. Except, of course, in Enemies, but the little buggies are immune to staff weapons.

They're still my favourite enemies, though, and I think it's a pity they got wiped out. They could have played a major role in Stargate Universe.

[bradly08]

did the ancients have anything on the derkal in thier databases?

I dont think so. Back when the ancients were about, the Der'kal (as far as i can remba) were only coming across the Milkway and so probibly would have waited in the void between galaxies waiting for a chance to strike.
