It would end with The Yamato firing the Wave Motion Gun at the USS Almayer.

So the americas are controled by the UA. TWE controls england, japan, and most of south east asia. UPP controls russia, germany, and spain. So who controls the other parts of the world. Is there a united african republic or something. Also who rules the balkians or france. Is there a reason there independant or did the writers just forget.

Anyways France is ICSC/3WE (3WE in FTE, ICSC in some garbage novel, so i’d say go with the 3WE version [ICSC on earth is very stupid as well])

If it isn’t mentioned it falls into either 3WE or UPP presumably.

I can’t tell if they jsut took a bunch of science word and put them together or if it somehow means something.

Basically think Star Wars or Star Trek but a little more complicated and realistic.

And my personal favourite example (the guy explaining the stasis field)

Also fun Fact: the captain is played by the guy who plays the Colony Admin in aliens extended cut.

So like what is the black goo. I know the engis made it as a weapon or something. But it also seems to used as a tool. But how was it intended to be used. If it is just a weapon how does they use it. Do you just drops some in a water supply or something. It is ever explined how it works. Does it also mutate xenos and plants.

On the topic of engis does it ever expline why there so overtly hostile. Also where are they all now.

Xenos yes, plants i don’t believe are ever explained.

Anyways my head canon for what black goo is is this: it serves as a weapon and a tool, you see in prometheus the guy who kills himself by drinking it is seeding the planet with life or some shit because his DNA breaks down and spreads to the rest of the planet or some shit and it becomes the basis of life, basically the primodial soup, however you need the correct batch to do this properly (there’s different strains according to the A:RPG with the 27 Draconis Strain), If you don’t have the correct strain it doesn’t work properly in the breakdown process and instead let’s to all sorts of terrible mutations (which change depending on the strain, in one comic a man literally becomes some spider creature after eating lab rats infected with a variant of Black Goo) The shitty black goo is repurposed as a weapon while the good stuff is used to seed planets with life.

As for what happened to engineers: they’re still around, in the A:RPG they’re going around bombing places that are tied with Xenomorph/Neomorph Weaponization efforts, clearly they’re not too happy someone is trying to use their toys.

Oh yeah and the reason why they’re so hostile is according to the screenplay because we killed jesus who was an engineer but that is so incredibly stupid i will instead go with the much simpler head canon of he’s pissed he’s been woken up for the first time in about a thousand years for some old rich guy to beg for more life (also you got to remember the guy translating is literally the psychotic android david, who i doubt would be telling the whole truth to the engineer)

Also if you want to know how they use goo as a weapon: They just carpet bomb places with it.

So the goo just makes you dissolves and its not supposed to mutate you. Well if they did not want us weaponizing xenos maybe don’t leave them all over the galaxy next time. Why are there xenos everyone where. I know there a weapon so like was there a massive war at some point. Since the engis are going around bombing people do they have a home world or is that place just a mass of mutant organic matter.

Black goo touchs some fungi.

Maybe, don’t take my word as certain it’s just my headcanon, i guess in a sense it would be like the uranium in nukes, the radiation that mutates and destroys cells is a side effect.

SO you know how xenos have a secound mouth. What is that for. Also what are the tube things on there back for too.

1 Like

Second mouth is really just for scare factor, though Moray eels do have second jaws, and originally the second jaw was the remains of a chestburster IIRC.

As for the Dorsal tubes, those are sometimes described as being used like lungs.

There is some genuine meaning in there - it’s saying that the particles of real matter (baryons) are being converted to hypothetical FTL particles (tachyons) via a ‘virtual mass’ field, which I interpret as meaning storing the mass as a virtual energy field with 0 real mass to remake the tachyons back into baryons later. I guess the ‘sub-quantum’ part just means altering the particles on a level smaller than anything we’ve ever discovered.
