If the Death March has already killed off the Utwig, are the Druuge ships still at Zeta Hyades? Does the Flagship still hav to fight to get the bomb or not? Donutcity (talk) 05:08, 19 July 2015 (CEST)

  • The Druuge are the first race to be killed off. No Druuge ships at Zeta Hyades from there on. The Utwig are conversely one of the last races to survive. --Bisqwit (talk) 19:54, 19 December 2015 (CET)
    • Wow, thanx @Bisqwit. shows what i kno! i always thot the Zoq-Fot-Pik were the first race annihilated, i guess i was never paying any attention to the southwest quadrant of space. Donutcity (talk) 21:12, 19 December 2015 (CET)
      • For more information, read Death March. I didn't put those tables there for nothing :-) --Bisqwit (talk) 21:14, 19 December 2015 (CET)
        • I went to that page before replying to your post! Those are great tables. But the second table doesnt mention the Zoqfot, why not? Donutcity (talk) 21:19, 19 December 2015 (CET)
          • Because the second table deals with the situation where the Zoq-Fot-Piq have been exterminated by the Kohr-Ah before the Death March even began, because the player did not respond to their distress call. --Bisqwit (talk) 21:22, 19 December 2015 (CET)
            • Then wouldnt they be the first targets in the Death March? Or do you consider them to be killed only becuz they are within Ur-QUan space? This is why i considered them to be the first hits on the D.March, becuz i dont usually go to visit them. Also, i tweaked the page layout a little, i hope it's ok. makes it quicker to navigate at least. Donutcity (talk) 21:26, 19 December 2015 (CET)
              • Death March is the special timed game event where the center of the Kohr-Ah influence sphere moves ominously through the entire starmap, from the center of an alien influence sphere to the next, annihilating that race when they reach it. Such circumstances do not happen with the Zoq-Fot-Piq distress. --Bisqwit (talk)
                • Right. i read thru the Death March page and i'm inclined to agree with you. ZFP were killed off during a Death Standing Around. I had never looked at it this way before. Donutcity (talk) 21:43, 19 December 2015 (CET)
                  • In conclusion, once the Druuge are marched off, can Player 1 go grab the Bomb without a battle, since the Druuge ships will hav disappeared? Donutcity (talk) 21:44, 19 December 2015 (CET)
                    • Yes, if you have allied the Utwig, or if they too have been annihilated. Otherwise there is still an infinite Utwig fleet, as you can see in my minimalist run at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hjOukxl5-I&t=2h56m0s --Bisqwit (talk) 00:14, 20 December 2015 (CET)
                      • This Battle is my favourite single point about this game. If the Druuge successfully defend the bomb, they are the first to die in the Death March. Donutcity (talk)
                        • The Druuge are always the first to die in the Death March, no matter what. After Druuge, the Kohr-Ah always choose whichever race has the closest center of influence circle to their current position after reaching the destination. If the race keeps moving, the Kohr-Ah keep chasing them but never reaching them unless they stop. The Ur-Quan and races without an influence circle (such as Human) are exempt. --Bisqwit (talk) 12:03, 18 July 2017 (CEST)
