What's the backstory with Space Hives? Are they Colony Hives like what you start out with in 4x? Alien trading vessels like the Eldar Craftworlds from 40k?

If I'm not mistaken, most of the Spac Hives are human vessels from the Exodus, but many are infested with the Xeno, inhabited by Narvidians, or just hulks, empty and forgotten.

They are like the Colony Hives you start with in ST 4X, only they are controlled by Xeno, Narvidians or lunatic Guild soldiers.
There are stories that some of them can enter the Hyperwarp, or are still carrying lost Star Trader civilians.

Nooooo, the Syndicates are Factions just like the Clans. Unlike the Clans, however, they are not organized around a particular bloodline or family tree.

This might be off topic a bit, but when will we see the Star Traders Lore PDF?

Great Clans might have just not had a significant enough presence in the Quadrant to fully take over a planet - plus you have a bunch of factions that seem to have been destroyed by other factions (like whoever inhabited Alto Prime, I'm assuming it was Alta Mesa).
