Your vision about the nomads.

[sovereign]

You should primarily learn its "Dom'Kavosh":P

And yes Yue, but that doesn't mean that they want to eradicate the humans.

Edit: Even though Daam K'vosh sounds better:( Personally I think we should just use that K'vosh thing..

Nomad backstory calls the Nomads the Slomon K'hara and spells the DK as Daam K'Vosh.



As for Nomad plans, the Nomads don't have the strength to overpower humanity in a contest of brute force. They never did, and that is unlikely to change by itself. What they did have was the element of surprise, cunning, and the ability to manipulate human tendencies. Well, that and the ability to assimilate humans into their forces- which was only practical large-scale before people knew about the Nomads. What continues to this day of that is on a far smaller degree, and serves more to replenish forces than to acquire vast numbers. Now, they have cunning, organization, fear, and the ability to manipulate human tendencies. Their military forces are not insignificant, but they can't just invade. They need to weaken the forces of the houses somehow (gee, wonder how they might achieve that... *looks at Leeds*), and preferably find another way into house space that isn't watched by the order (hmm, that's a very nice Alien Jump Gate in Omega-58...). There are plans, and they are not nearly so simple as ***DESTROY***.


And what's this "reunite the whole race" thing? You mean grab the ones that got thrown through the hypergate? That would probably require opening the hypergate full-tilt once more, which would do a lot more harm than good. For the energy that would take they could just build more ships. The issue with the hypergate was the power-drain, not the actual loss of forces through it. If it was just losing ships into it, humanity would have gotten annihilated from the combined Liberty and Rheinland militaries, as well as the full array of Nomad ships not in Omicron Major.
