Default Re: New Borg

Yeah SJ, you're damn right ...

That would make for some really nasty, scary borg. Also, make sure they use big, boxy Baseships!!! hehehe.

-Automatic declaration of WAR to every race.

I would really enjoy a borg mod where they get an organic-regenerating copy of every component in the game. With double hitpoints! The entire quadrant would have to join together to stop their incursions!
They would have to be AI'd to declare war instantly, every time. They should call for surrender during every encounter, then kick your ***

I would really like to see a technologically DANGEROUS borg AI. Something that you and some friends could gang up (militarily) against and lose most battles to.



The Borg should kick *** as no other race would. I never tried them (but will soon) ... so I ask you - how is the assimilation simulated. Did you find a way that one Borg ship can spy out and replicate the technology of an enemy ship?

It would be cool to have a borg ship at low tech spying out the higher tech of an enemys ship ... then during battle or between to battles they should modify (=upgrade) their weapons (in space) and attack the more advanced enemy suddenly with his own equipment. Might be a mixture of psychic and organic tech tree or something completely new.

Is it possible to create such a race in the game?
