W/ Rhinox: They have barley even talked so there isnt much to say.
W/ Tigerhawk: They never talked and Tigerhawk was only here for 2 and 1/2 episodes.

Depthcharge was killed in Nemesis part 1. He was the Maximals only hope to stop Megatron, but before he got to him he encountered Rampage. These two had a huge battle and ended up killing each other. Depthcharge went out in honor and was easily one of the best characters in the Beast wars. The last we see of him is his wing panal sinking to the bottom of the ocean.
