I, UltimateKane99, creator of most of the X-Com Apocalypse links in this site, including all the Aliens links and the Alien Artifacts links, have yet to beat the Queenspawn. I've been having too much fun blowing everything else out of the sky to bother with the alien dimension yet. However, I will update this with information once I find out. In the meantime, here are a few rumors.

Official Entry (Captured Alive): "The Alien queen is ultimately the production unit for all Alien life forms. Its mobility is severely limited when fully grown and it also requires exactly the right atmospheric conditions in order to breed properly and produce the Alien eggs. These conditions are only provided by the spawning chambers inside an Alien building, which also provide a food source by plugging directly into the Queenspawn's blood supply. This confirms that the Aliens cannot conquer our dimension without a steady supply of Alien reinforcements through the Dimension Gates, although their motive for such incursions is still unknown."
Official Entry (Autopsy): "The massive form of the Alien queen is designed to lay huge numbers of Alien eggs during its life time. The Queenspawn uses a complex asexual reproduction system to produce large numbers of Alien eggs in order to create new types of Alien creature. The importance of the Queenspawn for Alien population growth makes it an important strategic target."
