!!! Madness.
i appreciate that the ships would be revealed to be organically "grown/built".. very BIO-mechanical.
But having the Aliens be responsible for building them... that's...
Would it just be the hull, the outer structure itself that the aliens build, kind of like their version of a bee hive? And then the engineers would be revealed to go in, kill the aliens, and reuse the emptied xeno structures to then modify extensively and build their own ships out of? inserting engines and the pilot chamber, cryopods etc.. (that would be a bit less crazy? Because the alien itself building engines AND the pilot machine... lol
