If you get queasy easily, you may want to skip this post.
In a nutshell, if the Nomads lose all their bases, they're basically all dead within a week. If you want to understand the level of dead, read on.

Okay lets just assume then that we were (order and allies + house factions) to make a joint attack on the nomads to finally rid us of the jelly problem. When would you think they would be almost all gone. And it eventually gets down to only keepers and the wilde(who are already lower then nomads)

If you blow up/torch Xerna, the Ravine, the Wilderness, and the Nomad City in 4.85's Omicron Iota-Hell, the Nomads, Wild, and Keepers would die REALLY REALLY FAST. Imagine this. You are 24 years old, and physically fit. Someone cuts your eyes, ears, tongue, and nose off, sears your skin so you can't feel, then drops you in the woods. How long would you last assuming you didn't die of the injuries they inflicted on you? That's about how long the Nomads would last if Mindshare was destroyed. They were pretty helpless when the hypergate got triggered, but Mindshare was still there, just hopelessly faint. They still had ships, they still had bases, there was a way to come back. If they know that they really have lost everything, add to the above that person has just slaughtered your family, everyone that you know of, and re-written the laws of nature so you don't understand those anymore either.

That is one gory image you just painted.

It's appropriate for the analogy... sorry if you were eating though.

On the bright side, at least it wasn't Sophie discussing that!:crazy:

*wonders how many deranged people will catch the reference*

Is there something in the works to make the nomads more relivant because at the moment they are just farmed like cattle?

Yes. IIRC, Nomad NPCs will be significantly stronger (closer to Wild NPCs, which may get nerfed a bit, especially the insane Scorpions), and I'm certain that Omicron Iota will not be the kind of thing you survive. If you think Omega-58 is bad now, Iota will be even worse. So if you're determined, you can still farm Nomads, but it will be more like farming Wild from O-55 or O-58.

Kuraine said something along the lines of: nomads being on the move.

maybe Galia was also infested by nomads and is the primary reason why they want to enslave all other houses.

something like advanced tech could come from nomads

Who says the Nomads are more advanced than us technologically? I do believe the general consensus is that nomads are more advances socially and organically, and the Humans have technological and numerical superiority, and between those two military as well. Of course, that is up for debate, but that's how I always saw it.

In Iota, nomad farm you.

But really, why would you like to get rid of nom noms if they are the main story behind FL and the save humanity SL.
