it could work again if we could find another zpm and some more drones, btw does the deadalus have drones ?mjk1
Nope, the Daedalus has rail guns and missiles, no energy weapons.Â
To Sarge's comment, I don't agree because I don't see the Goa'uld as defeated so much as seriously diminished. They're still out there, and as seen in Stronghold, they can still be at least a marginal threat. The demise of the Goa'uld can't be attributed to a one-episode "Oh, look we found a cool new superweapon to defeat the Goa'uld" storyline either. The entire premise was played out over several seasons from the moment Teal'c defected in Children of the Gods. It wasn't a drawn-out process because, like most insurrections, the Jaffa slowly build over a long period of time then suddenly, WHAM! In this case it looked like the military might of the Jaffa was enough to subdue the Goa'uld with nary a shot fired. That's the difference between an insurrection and a war. The Bolshevik Revolution and the Petrograd Revolt, the Boxer Rebellion, all were quick, decisive and over almost as soon as they began. They had all been slowly building for years, though.Â
To summarize, I think they did a really good job with diminishing the Goa'uld threat, despite what I felt were some serious missteps in other storylines (anyone else think Jack got really stupid after being stuck in the deep freeze?). Mitchell's integration into the command of SG-1 was too easy, I think. Carter is back to being the quintessential tech-head and has lost a lot of the personality she'd developed (but GAWD was she hot in "Grace Under Pressure"!) and Teal'c is becoming a bit too Americanized. The only constant right now is the eternally-caffeinated Jackson, and it's almost like he and Mitchell are going to be the Teal'c/O'Neill of the new generation.
