The Ancient Warship | Stargate Omnipedia



THE ANCIENT WARSHIP: a class of vessels developed by the Ancients during their long period of residence in the Pegasus Galaxy. The powerful ships were a cornerstone in the Ancients’ fight against the Wraith 10,000 years ago, and several survived to be discovered by other races millennia later.

  1. Given the level of Tech the Ancients had, im surprised they didnt create a recall device for their ships or a way to find them where ever they might be but then again I still dont see how they lost the war to the wraith, must have been arrogance like the Tollan.

  2. They missed badly on that time, cause either writers of show did not bother or they could not afford a better script with decent SGI effects, after this scene I was quite disappointed, too many opportunities they left over for the sake of cheap show.

  3. Ancient ships lacked weapons only relying on drones which were powerful but ran out fast ships needed proper energy weapons all over the ship for maximum protection like destiny also wouldnt hurt to make special fighters to combat wraith darts

  4. I still hate the fact that Ancients who were aboard the Tria were all wiped out. What they could’ve given and helped humanity with, would have been insane. Earth would’ve ended up being the dominant force in both galaxies and may have even found a way to get the Destiny’s crew back home within months

  5. Would have been interesting to see a BC-305 ship that's somewhat larger than the BC-304 but with a mix of Asgard and Lantean technology, able to easily cross the space between galaxies, armed with both drones and beam weapons. And after humanity is picking up where the Ancients left off, the Nox can come out of hiding and the Pegasus Asgard might be convinced to pick up where the Ida Asgard left off. And there we have a "next generation" show of maybe limited runtime that is trying to find where the capital F the "Furlings" have disappeared to.

  6. The only thing I would add, because I kinda hate their design, is that they don't match anything else the Lanteans did. There is no elegance or aesthetic to them, they were an emergency creation thrown together at the last minute to combat a foe they didn't see coming. That is why they are boxy and all utilitarian, and no beauty.

  7. My question is the ancients were so advanced but only offensive weapons were drones no other weapons no auto cannons for taking out fighters no other long range weapons against ships what do they do when they run out of drones. More advanced than the wraith but the wraith can fire a barrage of energy blasts at multiple targets

  8. In the episode Aurora, was I the only person who said, "What were they thinking?" I get it, this was an episode of the week. But let's think about this. You have a ship full of Ancients in stasis pods, their minds are connected in a VR world, they can't be reconnected to their bodies because their bodies are too old and can't survive…OK…so go get the Asgard who are masters of cloning and have the Asgard clone their bodies and put their minds into the cloned bodies? I never understood this episode. I understand that 1) the ship was failing and 2) the Wraith were on there way. But 1) they had generators and ZPM for power and 2) they could pull the ship to a new location. Now granted that has risk but then they could take the ship anywhere to limit the risk. And yes, we know their power capabilities would have have prolonged their stasis potential until the Asgard could get there. I'm just saying unlike the Ancients of the Tria who were unreasonable to the SG team, the Lanteans of the Aurora at least seems more rational and might have been more helpful. Not to mention they would see the Asgard are on our side giving us a little credit in their opinion of us. That was the problem with the Tria, those Lanteans were grateful for the help but then they didn't see as equals or special. We were a lesser species who basically took over their property.

  9. In this video alone, Melia McClure, Brandy Ledford, Megan Leitch, Jill Wagner… these names and faces I am able to readily recall from memory. Because the Stargate casting crew chose some of the most attractive and talented, supporting female actors that I've ever seen. Melia McClure in particular, playing a beautiful and wise Ancient, with those big expressive eyes… I will always wish that her character had been given a larger role in Stargate Atlantis. And sadly, it appears that Melia retired from acting after that.

  10. 0:42 It's unlikely that the ships were developed in this era. Their design/ technology, I think, must pre-date the building of Atlantis (or there is a continuity error). The crew of the Aurora must have gone into hibernation around the same time as the time- travelling Dr. Weir. But although Lantians/ Ancients have a far more advanced physique compared to basic humans (Ayiana lay millions of years in just pure ice, nothing more, and didn't – for the lack of a better word – rot physically or mentally), they all degraded beyond the chance of re-awakening. Also, in difference to the hibernation pods on Atlantis, their system needed this artificial reality to keep them sane. On the other hand, the pods/ technology on Atlantis is no different to the million years older technology available at the Antarctica Outpost.
