Replicators vs Goauld (spoilers season 8)

[Anubis]

I guess he's old, since he's now on his 2nd body!

[Torley]

Hahaha... hey, has it specifically been mentioned this is his 2nd body? I would think that being Supreme Commander, that he has been around quite awhile like some of the older Goa'uld, not to mention lived through multiple bodies. In his position, I would imagine past battles have killed him... although he lives another day. I wonder if subsequent bodies experience any mental deterioration as it's implied there is certainly physical wear and tear.

I guess the Asgard aren't big on apprenticeship much because of the cloning, i.e. there was an older Thor who passed his name to the present one like The Flash of DC Comics fame. Or Robin

[Torley]

He is old isn't he? Haha... He needs to exersize his legs!

Mwahaha... yeah, he needs to go jogging with Heimdall more! The Heimy is hyperactive, holy moly!

[Anubis]

Yeah, O'Neill said the following


O'Neill - "I though you were going for a new body"
Thor - "I did"


I can't remember which episode it was from though

611 Prometheus

Why didn't the Asgard just blow up the sun (as done by sg1)and catch any rep ships which are trying to leave

[Anubis]

Just because SG-1 managed to do this, doesn't necessarily mean that the Asgard will. Besides, the Asgard would have to abandon their part of the galaxy

So your saying the Asgard won't do it, or they can't do it, because the way you worded your sentence, it sounds like... Just because SG1 was able to blow up the sun (managed to do this), doesn't really mean the Asgard will (doesn't nexessarily mean that the Asgard will), so i'm just little confused

[Anubis]

I'm saying that the replicators are CURRENTLY only in the Asgard galaxy. If they wanted to blow up their sun, they would have to leave their galaxy, and I don't think they will

[Elwe Singollo]

Oh, i would think the Asgard would sacrafice their galaxy and leave it if it will destory something as deadly as the replicators permanately, but maybe not, just guessing

[Anubis]

Maybe. I just think they wouldn't unless it was their ONLY option

[Elwe Singollo]

I mean, what other options do they have that they haven't tried already? Maybe there are more, but what if they finally do that little blow up the son option, and before they did that, it would be the cost of alot of deaths that could have been prevented, but if they really wanted to stay in their galaxy, because for some reason (homeworld i guess?), i guess attempting other options would be the best...

[Anubis]

It may be their only option, but they are already a dying race

[Elwe Singollo]

Which in my opinion is the better reason for the whole 'blowing up the sun' idea, because they are exactly what you said, "a dying race".

[Anubis]

I understand where you are coming from. However, I think the majority wouldn't want to go away, so they really wouldn't

Who knows, but it's a interesting theory. But will that really destroy all the replicators? They've survived that big crash into the ocean
