In Response To: Deimos and the Marathon (Thoth Wannabe)

: This all makes me wonder whether that Pfhor ship that attacked the Marathon

: Faster then Light Drive, but wouldn't he be reluctant to enter a ship
: smaller then his previous one? This is all considering that a rampant mind
: needs more space, which is why I was always confused by all this.

The Pfhor ship was about a kilometer long, I believe. Almost Star Destroyer size... and that was just a scoutship!

As for the smaller size, since the Pfhor were more advanced than us, their smaller ship might have more computer memory. Like those computers from the fifties that were the size of a room but did less than a calculator, compared with a modern laptop.

The Pfhor ship had FTL, weapons, shields, information, technology... all kinds of things the Marathon didn't. Not to mention that the S'pht were willing to help Durandal with his overall goal and the crew of the Marathon wasn't.

: Also, what ever happend to the marathon!?! Was it destroyed or something?

I was of the impression that soon after the end of M1, the pfhor came back, killed everyone, nuked the colony and took the Marathon. Durandal thought the Pfhor might have had some plan for it, but didn't know what.
