I do remember it was said in the game that the Mycon sent a representative to the Ur-Quan *asking* to join as battle thralls.. could it be because they have an affinity to the hierarchical structure and being commanded, a good sense of survival, or simply some memory of the Ur-Quan from past days?

I'm curious to hear some ideas about this.

Hmm, too lazy to check if it's been mentioned in this thread, or in the SC forum one, but I seem to recall a distant discussion, or imprression from somewhere.

Something along the lines that Mycon live to spread Juffo-Wup. when the Quan arrived, the Mycon simply accepted that they could not stand against the Hierarchy, and that the Hierarchy would most probably win. Therefore, by joining the winners, the Mycon would be given more opportunity to spread Juffo-Wup.

Of course, this would only apply for as loong as the Quan were significantly stronger than the Mycon. There is no doubt in my mind that after the Quan left for new worlds to enslave, the Mycon would grow in strength, until they one day became strong enough to Void the Ur-Quan Non.

Posibly this was from SC3? i'm not sure. But it sounds kinda logical anyway. After all, Non must be voided, Juffo-Wup must be spread. Can't really do that while slaveshielded...

Juffo-Wup acknowledges the existence of un-Voidable Non
when we are faced with such, we join, absorb and wait for our opportunity
to learn the weakness that will allow us to Void the Non.

Aren't they yet?
If yes, we can start quoting the UQM-text-files. Wink
