Oh and the Collector's were flying back and forth, the base was safe and away in the core. Now that the invasion is on, why hide it? It was a hit and run tactic. I promise you that the Collectors would have never hit Earth without the Reapers despite the fear we are given of it happening. One ship wouldn't be able to handle that. Regardless of its tech. If Earth ended up as the last bastion, all fleets would have been there. It would have cleaned-up all of the colonies first.
