Goa'uld armor questions (the whole suit) ..

[Geronimo]

tec'ma'te,

k -- perhaps the tau'ri aren't primitive ('cos of their technical developement) but what's the measure for "primitiveness" ?
(e.g. the tau'ri call the abydonians primitve but on the other side the tollan call the tau'ri primitive) ..

and there's another thing that's interesting -- if the tollan call the tau'ri "primitive" jack & co. get angry but on the other side the tau'ri call other civilisations "primitive" ...

lek'tol !

that's probably just human nature. or an American Military Inferiority complex. I wonder if Teal'c would take offence if the asgaard called him primitive. but even if he did, who'd be able to tell? no offence to any1 intended.

Not too good against SG-1 michine guns, I've noticed tho...

Nor against either staff weapons nor zat guns. It seems to have some protection against limited ballistic weapons - but heavy fire will still get through.

As I have suggested elsewhere - I wonder about a heavy attack by medieval longbowmen: 3 foot arrows, flying literally by the hundred, that would pierce plate steel armour, at 150+ yards, fired by people who train week in and week out for 5 or more years, constantly, just to be able to draw the bows...
