Its possible that over 1500 years some genetic drift has occured. More likely
is that their internecine conflicts have probably done much to keep them
technologically backwards. Also their language and attitude makes them insular
and little may be known of their physical attributes. Granted that they
have not been militarily very succesful but they have been fighting Imperial
forces atleast 4 TLs above them. If your opponent is in battle dress and armed
with FGMPs enhanced dex/or enhanced ability to take damage does little for
you....
As far as settlement goes. The indications are that the SWs knew of the
Darrians existence when the decided to settle on Gram.
I am still curious to see other people's interpretation of why the
Sword Worlders are where they are now.
A question for the historians:
o When did the so-called Solomani "Gene Wars" occur?
