Stargoids

The Proteous Wave, an anti-Thargoid super weapon, was turned against us. It was meant to disable all the Thargoid ships in the region but instead it disabled all the human ships.
When this happened an unearthly scream was heard. And thus the Stargoid approach began.
At first the Stargoids were seen as rogue anomalies but as more appeared a pattern emerged and it became clear that they were headed straight for us.
Many explorers began tracking. Canonn began compiling data bases of their movements.
This gave commanders the ability to predict their somewhat erratic movements and get in close to observe their behaviour.
I was one of these commanders.
For a while the Stargoids were moving from system to system at around 0.8 LY/h and I observed an increase in speed to almost 50 LY/h.
This short burst of speed demonstrated the terrifying capabilities of the Stargoids.
Whilst moving between the systems that the Stargoids were traversing I was hyperdicted twice and scanned by a multitude of Thargoid interceptors, proving beyond a doubt that they were Thargoid in origin.
As they approached each system their eerie yellow and blue spirals filled my scopes and no sooner had I laid eyes upon it when it teleported to the other side of the system, leaving a wave of destruction in its wake as I spotted many degraded emmision signals filled with ship debris and black boxes. There were no survivors.
