Hey Atrocities,

After playing with the Borg, I noted all those changes that you maded. Here my thoughts and suggestions.
Ship Sizes are the same for the "Cube" and "Battle Cube" at 500 kts each. The Battle Cube cost 4000 metal vs a tenth of that for the regular Cube. This must have been a type-o mistake. Tha largest Cube was the Fusion Cube at 1200kts. That seem to small, since that eight smaller cubes fused together. If the Borg fused eight regular Cubes and/or T-Cubes together the combine size should be about 3200 kt to 4000 kt for the Fusion Cube. Borg only had seven ship classes vs eight to nine classes for all the other races. What you think about this idea;
Sphere 200kt, 200metal - 50org - 100rad's
Escort 300kt, 300metal - 75org - 150rad's
T-Cube 400kt, 400metal - 100org - 200rad's
Cube 600kt, 600metal - 150org - 300rad's
Battle Cube 800kt, 800metal - 200org - 400rad's
Attack Cube 1200kt, 1200metal - 300org - 600rad's
Queen's Cube 1600kt, 1600metal - 400org - 800rad
Fusion Cube 3200kt, 3200metal - 800org -1600rad's

Second thing was the Borg Drone II weapon is 5-5-5-4-10-5 it should be 5-5-5-4.

Third item is Borg special weapon mounts. The only weapon that has Borg special weapon mounts is the Borg shield depleter. You may want to include Borfg's ripper beam and tachyon cannon.

I was depressed to find that the Borg organic armor was reduce in its effective by over 60%. The Borg's do not need both shield re-changer and organic armor. Remove the shield rechanger and restore the organic armor back to its orginal Ratings.

In summary the Borg had a different ship design than the other races had. The Borg cube were big and square. They re-generated (organic armor) they hull during battle, boarded enemy ship, etc. I just think it wrong to made all the race's ships all the same size. Each race should be different, with they weakness and strenghts. The biggest Borg weakness is everyone else is gunning for them, attacked them on sight.

Those are some my thoughts
