It's OK, the Thargoids were coming anyway

They obviously didn't get past the Fight bit of XBTF's Fight, Trade, Build, Think
Won't let me rep ya again so have to settle for o7
Oh my god, you're like the news stations that tell you something in your house will explode any minute. ... film at 11 lol
Excellent theory, build on evidence and plausible extrapolation from it. Thanks for the vid!
You must grind, grind, GRIND for the war!
Seriously though this is a pretty interesting theory, probably closer to what the devs have in mind than my own theory.
I came to the same conclusion today Master Nutter, based on a few hours reconnaissance in VR, at the latest (most complete structure).
It's startling how different they look in 3D... basically like a bl**** massive ship.

The thargoids buried themselves to protect from the mycoid virus. Now they found a cure, they did set up the barnacles to gather the resources to repair the ships. The scavengers are actually removing the virus from the ship's hull and applying the meta alloys to repair them.
To be honest, you wore a very bit tinfoil hat there. It is plausible, however is just a model of what we have observed.
Here's an idea...try whispering so no one can actually hear what you are saying. Oh, you already thought of that
Since he said he was about to board a plane earlier, I think the sound quality was pretty good for an airplane toilet
I always wondered about the term "technological plague" that was recurring in galnet about the time I graduated the pilots federation cadet programme and had my sidey, it struck me as too reminiscent of that virus we infected the goids with.
Maybe thats why sothis were paying millions for gadgeys to haul their biowaste back to the bubble, they knew how valuable it would become, equivalent to stockpiling oil in the 1971 berore the energy crisisThe price of biowaste is gonna go through the roof
Great idea, I`m pretty sure those are mega ships that crashed/were buried.
In all seriousness though, the idea strikes me as equally plausible and terrifying. 10KM ships? Dear Randomius we are in for a world of hurt. Especially if these things and their drones have Sarah Jane Avery's finest work in her most malovelent murderous milspec monstrous minions at the helm.
Cheers.
But I want dulcet tones, har har
You're a gent, many thanks [up]

Great video you put together there, and extremely difficult to counter your logic on this. So please accept a +1. [up]
Basically, if I paraphrase a summary of what Nutter is saying,
It's an interesting theory, well worth further consideration.
I am unclear about how two aspects fit into this:
1 The role and nature of the jelly ships that fly around. They don't appear to give anything back to the Thargoid 'bases.'
2 Why do the jelly ships match with the Galnet symbol? Where does GalNet fit into this?
Basically, if I paraphrase a summary of what Nutter is saying,
The Thargoid bases are actually the Thargoids themselves (or the ships of the Thargoids). They buried themselves in the ground in order to avoid the mycoid fungus that was used to defeat them in the previous Thargoid war. The little auto-bot ships are removing the mycoid fungus and replacing that with meta-alloys, eventually to allow the Thargoids to launch again in all their glory !

Finally. This explains the sudden appearance of the sites. I couldn't quite place it.
But, perhaps this isn't all that's left of them. Their homeworld was far away, and we supposedly only fought their scouting forces. Maybe the ships that scan us came from there to investigate and decided to help repair and cure those who crash landed? That would explain their lack of hostility as they wouldn't quite know yet that we did it. Once they find out...or if they mistake us as having an association with the Guardians due to our interest in them and physiological similarities, it may cause war.

Galnet..... a galaxy wide news agency with seemingly unlimited resources and knowledge of all sorts of events and special circumstances... it's almost as if they've been doing this for a while... including dealing with the Thargoids.. starting to sound like Galnet is starting to sound more and more like the public face to Galcop which "went under" right about the time the Feds and Imps took over.... If someone had experience with the Thargoids it was them.
Someone else want the tinfoil roll?

Well done!
On the Front Page.
However:
So, assuming they are Thargoid motherships wrecked by the Mycoid Virus, they are still trying to (auto?) repair themselves, and sending probes, signals, and more, to be found by their "parents"
REMEMBER?
WHAT WE FOUGHT IN THE FIRST WAR WAS JUST A THARGOID SCOUTING PARTY, WE ARE LOOKING AT THEM NOW.
Imagine what will come to rescue them. And DB said THEY are very angry with the Federation... I may guess the reason why...
