I've watched all three Stargate series, so I can shed a little light on the Lucian Alliance backstory and costumes. They started out as disparate bands of smugglers, theives, and petty gangsters, so their unofficial uniform of black leather was originally a practical concern. They provide durability and a measure of stealth in situations that require sneaking. When the Goa'uld (Ra's race), the former overlords of the Milky Way, were defeated by Stargate Command, this loose underworld alliance started forming an official power structure and making plays for control of former Goa'uld territory. Since the previous regime was so ostentatious in dress, I imagine that the Lucian Alliance has elected to keep the leather look in order to distinguish themselves as a different kind of authority. Also, the Alliance members do their own fighting, while the Goa'uld had an entire race of genetically engineered soldiers to do battle on their behalf. [/SG geek]
I thought that Incursion 1 was an action-packed episode, and can't wait to see how it turns out this week. There are some tough military and moral choices that need to be made, and from the way the cast and crew have been talking about season 2, it should be a doozy of a time getting them out of this jam.
