I didn't make the page, some anon guy did, filled with expletives..reckon I did good cleaning it up. :)

The brick walls thing could be nothing really, just the idSoft texture guys messing about, but it could be evidence of a much earlier and less advanced civilization on Stroggos, roughly at the level of present day humanity. I like to think so, anyway.

It could be like an alt Earth, sort of - an alien race develops on a similar path to mankind, a bit like the concept of 'convergent evolution' (see: wikipedia), then something goes terribly wrong and maybe they just become the Strogg, like Germany turning into Nazi Germany, or maybe they become caught up in a war with an alien race and they create an artificial race designed for warfare so they don't have to endure the terror themselves, then they leave or get destroyed but their creation lives on, changing radically in appearance with each new alien race it overruns... or something.
