I agree with Rodney, it's a beautiful sight. One of the reasons I love SG:A is the increase of visual effects when compared to early SG-1.

[@Ragitsu]

Seven years will do that.

[@MikMoen]

I always wondered the acting required to fake emotional reactions to a green screen. Thought maybe for scenes like that sets could render the scenery first then have it play on a large screen before the actors so they were actually reacting to something.

[@DomWeasel]

@@MikMoen The SG1 actors have talked about this. They're all annoyed with themselves in Thor's Chariot because they all seem quite nonchalant as Thor's absolutely huge ship descends out of the clouds in what is an actually pretty good bit of CG, especially for its time. Meanwhile, they all find it hilarious how their acting in response to Daryl the Dragon in The Quest is clearly for a much better bit of CGI than what was delivered. Because the CG of the dragon is so bad, none of them can take the sequence and laugh (and wince) when they rewatch it as they see themselves acting so seriously.

Something about the sound those blasts hitting the shield is just top notch sound design. Giving the normal shield impact design of tauri vessels with crisp sounds, the ancient shield sound more like the blasts are rippling against it.

I always thought that these three episodes were really hard for the series to top. I think we only get a similar level of peril during the Asuran attack with the satellite weapon and Atlantis' subsequent escape from Lantea. The attack, trying to keep the city alive and then the raid of Asuras are the only episodes that manage to create the same level of tension as the Siege.

[@enderkool]

yeah, from what i've read the writers (for at least the first 3 seasons) tried to top the last season finale, s2 finale, while cool, kinda missed the mark but s3 was almost as incredible, although i much preferred first strike than adrift and lifeline. s4 was my least favorite finale by far, although i don't blame the writers for trying to tone it down and make it more personal, can't just keep upping the stakes forever.

[@develynseether4426]

I know the city was huge and they had only explored I think it was 70% by season 4. But surely they must have come across the production lab where the Ancients built the ZPM's. I never understood why they didn't come across it or the specs in the database.

[@christopherg2347]

I would bet the process of creating ZPM is dangerous. And we know that sabotaged ZPMs can explode with enough force to destroy about everything in the solar system. You don't want that stuff in your city. And then they would also need the raw materials and power to run it. A steel plant without Iron, carbon and energy is just a derelict factory And for all we know, ZPM Factories need stuff like Neutronium Fibres and power comparable to the chair to run it.

[@cmj0929]

They would’ve had to know exactly what to look for in the database and I don’t think the Ancients were calling them ZPM’s it would’ve been like looking for a needle in a haystack, the asguard said they had downloaded the repository of the ancients and had been studying it for thousands of years and had barely scratched the surface, the humans could barley figure out how the deep space sensors worked lmao

[@Taz6688]

It's the Star Trek conundrum, if the made more ZPM's everything would work, and they could turn the tables on any enemy, same with the drones ancient ships and Atlantis fire, they found some in another Atlantis type ship, they did have an issue with running short of drones, yet the city must have been able to produce drones and ZPM's. Star Trek in all it's version had the same issues, they found some enemy which could overpower them, in some cases they had to run away, only to confront them later and overcome with some ingenious plan or method, never gaining the weapons or power to use for their own advantage. Same with SGU, never enough power, always something broken, no auto-repair, enemy weapons just a little overpowered, no matter what series they were always the underdog.

[@icer1249]

@@Taz6688 perhaps the production sites for there weapons, ZPMs etc were on other planets the wraith destroyed. With no further resources coming in to reinforce the cities defenses they slowly ran out of drones and power and decided they had to leave. It is just a city afterall, not a industrial complex.

[@amitakartok]

I once had a theory, supported by nothing I know of, that the Ancients never actually abandoned the Destiny's solar scoop technology and ZPMs were intended to be recharged from that. It's just that Atlantis has no facilities to do it because shields or not, it's too fragile to survive the tidal forces of diving into a star at all, let alone stay there for the full duration required to fully charge even one ZPM, never mind three. In fact, the sheer energy density of a ZPM probably means they needed specialized harvester ships with extra reinforcement to dive much deeper into a star than Destiny does in order to get enough power input to finish charging in a timely manner.

[@theenigma7290]

Those ZPMs were heavily drained by the fight with the super hive AND the trip across galaxies

[@theenigma7290]

Maybe they diverted the power from propulsion to weapons, hive ships are massive so it’s not hard to imagine how much power they need to move it

[@soulessification]

@@theenigma7290 Well don't forget the Wormhole drive is practically creating a supergate sized wormhole for Atlantis to travel, and apparently that requires a 'fuckton' of energy to use

[@luminatrixfanfiction]

@@theenigma7290 Sheppard said there was still plenty of power in all 3 zpms, so I don't buy that. The energy requirements for that experimental city wormhole drive would have been no greater than an Ori Super Stargate to their home galaxy which the Odyssey ship was capable of powering with it's lone zpm.

[@whydontyouhandledeez]

​@@luminatrixfanfiction Yeah, it's been years since I watched that episode, but wasn't it more of a power draw issue? Sheppard could only put enough power into the thrusters by diverting it from the shields/weapons which they needed to actually win the fight. I think the super hive was also effectively "pushing" them into the planet with the impact force from it's attacks as well, and given Atlantis isn't a battleship the ancients likely never intended for it to go up in a 1v1 against another ship in it's size class, so needing to be able to put enough power into engines to overcome gravity and the force from a ZPM's worth of incoming fire while also fully powering shields and weapons was probably not on the list of things the ship was ever designed to do.

[@nehorlavazapalka]

A single nuke big enough to turn most of Atlantis into vapor/very small debris would have to be in the gigaton range. It would not be possible to drop the shield soon enough. Also, the metal vapor in the debris plume would be very visible to any kind of sensor, hence the Wraith would know. They should have made a drone delivery from Earth, destroy the fleet and fly away...

[@quantumbubbles7977]

You don;t really hear it when watching the show, but in the background noise there are some nice details, like the technicians saying "radar is being jammed". Have to disagree with Caldwell though: it doesn't seem likely the Daedalus could reach orbit and breach their lines, starting from the ground with the Wraith's good positioning making it hard for them to miss their target. The Daedalus wouldn't even be able to plausibly return fire with nukes for most of the assent.

[@DayneTreader]

The Daedalus would have probably just created a hyperspace window in the atmosphere. That has been done multiple times before.

[@theonlyjacknicole]

True OP.

[@5226-p1e]

they needed his out of phase tech, that would have saved them the blowing themselves up and would have allowed them to save on power. the out of phase tech was superior to the cloaking tech as it literally took the objects you were putting our of phase within an alternate dimension that was based on the same world. so they could fire at that spot and they would hit nothing, imagine your shields had some kind of out of phase tech enabled that would activate when your shields were getting low on power, that would turn the tables. then imagine creating a warhead that could go out of phase and then come back only to blow up, virtually undetectable to any vessel. now imagine the same thing, but instead of a warhead a vessel that had FTL capability and the phase tech enabled on it, but was a drone that was meant to pass through a shield of a ship only to enter FTL dragging the enemy ship into the uncontrolled wormhole tearing it to pieces as the ship was not ready to jump. that would be the most effective weapon or none weapon we would have at our arsenal.

[@eraldorh]

I always found this a bit stupid, the wrath could never fire susstained shots like this ever again and unsurprisingly since the energy requirements and the cooling requirements would be insane. Also in order to deplete such a massive energy source you would have to hit it will at least as much energy and the wrath tech isnt anywhere near capable of that as they dont have that kind of power source so how the hell are they able to keep up sustianed energy weapons fire for days....

[@bigben8502]

You've got it exactly backwards.

[@soulessification]

The wraith know the Atlanteans shields are impenetrable until they run out of energy. So firing smaller, less powered but more shots to drain the shield is more efficient than firing at it with full power volleys that take a while to recharge and not overheat.

[@David_J_B]

I agree, but we later discover that the Wraith stole ZPMs in their war with the ancients, which would have allowed them to do this more easily back then. So maybe in this instance it was in reality a bluff to try and convince the new occupants of Atlantis to lower the shield, by appearing more powerful than they actually are and relying on the knowledge the ancients lost 🤔

[@5226-p1e]

well they didn't, that was the projection of McKay when they asked how long the shields would last. i agree with you that the wraith ships would run out of power and over heat, however, they can always just swap out for more ships with more power as they fire endlessly. like say the example the first few ships fire for a few hours as their power depletes and they call in for reinforcements to shoot at them while they either replenish their power reserves and cool down their systems or more ships take on the attack as the ships deplete, that method could be done for days and days on end. but what i think is stupid is that they didn't attack from any other position, they could have sent some darts near and around the city and possibly under the water, now we don't know if these can fly under water, but who knows, we didn't know that the jumpers could until we tried. ah, but i feel the under water concept for Atlantis was under used in the show, i mean it was cool when they discovered that under water base, but after that they didn't really use it for anything or go back to explore it for longer than a minute.

[@kevinforget549]

[@RenBR]

There are a few hints in the stargate show regarding ZPMs manufacture. On SG-1 episede 09X20 the Asgards were talking about the anti Ori weapon and commented that it was very similar to a ZPM. In episode 10x11 we see an Lantean (Merlin) using a holographic display to build the weapon virtually (down to atomic level) and using transport tech to manufacture it (converting energy into matter). So a ZPM could be created in a similar way.
