I am dialing them down A LOT, but reversing 12+years of a thought process is going to take time. My family is very, very competitive, and that mentality is deeply ingrained in me.
No, that is going too far, making them immune to Drone weapons, I am trying to keep them from becoming too uber well not weakening them for no reason, and like the Aschen I am trying to make them well prepared. They have been building for centuries for a war with the Goa'uld, what do you want me too do? I cannot change every core bit of information that makes them them without them no longer being my race.
They do have weaknesses, their soldiers and ships are not invulnerable.
They did have a bigger purpose lol, but that got...hmm...shot down? So now their main purpose is what their secondary used too be, an ally against various enemies. The Kaizoku Karuteru(An offshoot of the Houjin people.) were going to help balance the power of the Houjin.
Stealth probes 101-They were developed by all three of the major corporations of the Houjin working together, Yokuzaki armaments Mittsakuo kironics and Seronashi propulsion at the behest of the Shogunate during the war with the Kaizoku Karuteru. The probes were invaluable in securing vital intelligence during that conflict and ended the war quickly, saving thousands of lives.
The stealth probes purpose, spying. Collect information without betraying its presence. It is ftl capable, but only short distances.
What so illogical about its design? Its very Houjin. It can function equally with both ends. It has redundancies. It has sensor mesh over much of its hull for maximum passive scan. It has advanced optical sensors for observing things that its mesh may miss. Its entire mesh structure can work together too actively scan. The mesh is protected by shielding. It has nanites stored that can repair the mesh or other delicate components over time. It has A.I. that has a learning capacity to help it in new situations that were not programmed into it. I used to have it so that there was no naquadah in its construction, making it less likely to be detected or noticed by the Goa'uld,(Or other enemies, I see naquadah sending up flares as far as scanners go) but that may change because of power requirements so I will have to add insulation, perhaps Osmium or another metal in the platinum family. <Lets work with those for now. Whats illogical?
About the decay thing, I know its not that important, what about the type ex star? You said the large naquadah nucleus is held together by exotic particle force, so a huge type ex star, a star containing many kirons and ex particles, could fuse iron into naquadah when it went nova yes? And it would not decay because of kiron theory.
