The one-sentence "definition" that should be in italics.

This pattern is a still a stub.

Examples

The concept of an Extermination phase way coined to describe the final gameplay phase of Master of Orion. The Civilization series provides a weaker example since eliminating other players is only one of several end strategy one can have to win those games.

Using the pattern

Extermination is, often voluntary, last phase in several games, especially X4 games[1] such as Master of Orion. The name for this category of games comes from the typical phases of (Game World) Exploration, Expansion,Exploitation, and Extermination.

Not too surprising, Extermination requires the presence of Eliminate goals, typically made possible by Combat.
