just one rule. if you wanna disagree with someone elses idea, do it nicely. and dont diss someone unless your willing to put your own theory up yourself.
gentlemen, start your engines....

i reckon, that a queen, or even a queen mother/empress/whatever you wanna call it, is an ancient drone (kinda). if a praetorian is kind of a 'improved' drone, and many people see a praetorian as being kind of a smaller queen, why cant they just be stages in evolution?
a species as hostile as that would want all the survival skills possible. only the strong can survive. so wouldnt it make sense to have the only ones worthy (or even able) to propagate the ones who have already survived for a large amount of time? as a drone gets older, it grows. we know that. so why have we never seen a drone as big as a queen? what if we have - maybe it is the queen! and then the queen gets even older, stronger, bigger, wiser. it moults into an empress, and extends its rule from a planet to a solar system. it is so strong, so intelligent, it's children would be so invincible, as it tells them how to survive to the point where an entire human base could be levelled in seconds with maybe no alien casualties, and a minimum human body count (until they wake up pasted to a wall with junior chewing his/her way out ).
we can only fear that it ever happens.
or if your like me, pray for the day our majestic queen mother sends us on our fight for rightful universal domination and revenge for our species

If the aliens were just part of an ecosystem then they wouldnt be so strong. And they would be born through eggs (without facehuggers) Because their lifecycle forces them to use other animals, and so to breed and to eat they would wipe out entire planets. And their rate of growth to. Also once they killed everything they cannot breed. Forcing them into dormancy. Just like a weapon

Preds, at least in the comics, are the wild cards. They have found a way to co-exist with aliens, but are not containing, them. Preds are actually knowingly, although probably not purposefuly, contributing to the spread of aliens. But preds still probably would not cause the complete destruction of the galaxy, it is in their best interest for aliens to remain at least somewhat contained.
I personally see no real reason for aliens not to have evolved naturally. I personally like that idea a lot more than that they are bio-weapons, but the comics and books and movies have no sure indication either way (although there is talk of this in AvP War 0, it is just pred folklore so it is not completely reliable). The thing is, if they were bioweapons, there are notable improvements that could have been made to make them better. They are incredibly deadly, but they could have been a lot more deadly with a few changes.
At least according to the comics, aliens have been around so long their origins are probably undeciferable. Whatever world (or race) they came from almost surely doesn't even exist anymore, and if it (the planet) did it is so different it would probably be completely unidentifiable as an alien homeworld.

Actually, a guy in one of the comics had that exact reaction, he was a bit skeptical about a pred's technological superiority because the one he saw only seemed to be using a huge sword.

ok, sorry, theres no such thing.
hes been watching the Rock too much!!!
preds are technologically advanced. but put 2 aliens inside a single small pred ship, and who would come out on top? each species is best in its own element. once the bugs gets close enough, the other races have no chance. for overaskill in everything, preds are the best rounded out. for out-and-out firepower (normal equipment, not going into the realms of bigger weapons), the oomies have the other 2 beat, easy.
if you really wanna debate which race is better, there are already about 10 billion forums on it

If you make a virus in real life you dont want it to be so powerful that it affects even you. Thats the entire point behind anthrax, its as effective as smallpox on a single person, but doesnt spread so easily.

Just hope they stay far away!

I beleive that if they dont evolve out of needing host they will end up sucking the galaxy dry of almost all its life. |
And how would they suck the galaxy dry they don't have spaceships thus they can't travel from planet to planet and I'm sure if they were build or evolved nowhere did the idea 'what if someone a space-faring species comes along' really come up.
Now on to my theory. Aliens evolved naturally (I personally like that theory more but have little proof). Now as someone around here has mentioned before AR showed that aliens could be all that biomechanical since an alien queen was cloned form DNA.
My theory is that on the alien homeworld the wild life would also be able to reproduce quite fast or would have to evolve an ability to survive an aliens birth. Or there could only be a few species on the alien homeworld that could be hugged which would mean that a quick reproductive system is almost a must to survive. Another theory I have is that drones don

if there can only be one queen, made slowly and gradually, that means a hive is destroyed once the queen dies. it doesnt make sense for a for a race so dedicated to survival on the instinctive and evolutionary level for that to be the case, and if they were created, it presents a major weakness that the target could exploit.
