Elite Dangerous Thargoid

thingiverse

The Thargoids are a highly advanced insectoid species that have thrived for millions of years. As the only known living sapient species in the Milky Way galaxy besides humanity, they possess an unmatched level of intelligence. Thargoids are fiercely territorial and rebuff all diplomatic attempts with unyielding hostility, yet they are also notoriously slow to adapt. Approximately 1-2 million years ago, the Thargoids initiated a war with another intelligent species known as the Guardians over territory. Although the Guardians ultimately prevailed, the Thargoids retreated only because they were woefully unprepared for a prolonged campaign against a rival civilization. Humanity and the Thargoids have been embroiled in two wars. The first conflict occurred between 3125-3151 and is believed to have ended with a human victory following the Intergalactic Naval Reserve Arm's deployment of the mycoid bio-weapon. The second, ongoing war began in 3303 and has rapidly escalated with no resolution in sight, affecting dozens of systems across the Pleiades Nebula and the Core Systems.
