BORG question for Modders

[geoschmo]

My question is, why would the Borg colonize at all? Don't they spread by asimilation?

Give them a big ground combat bonus. I also like the idea of the combination ship capture shield depleter. That sounds very Borgy. (Is that a word? hehehe)Although it's probably easier to leave them separate.

They should have acess to ship capture earlier than other races though. Probably as a starting tech.

The rapid amotsphere converter is a good idea. I think the Borg truly are a race that can funtion in any atmosphere, but I am guessing that would require a code change. The converter would effect the same thing but be doable from a mod perspective.

All of these would give the Borg an immense advantage, so to balance it some, do not allow them to colonize any planets. My idea would be to only allow them to gain planets by assimilation of exsisting colonies or colony ships of other races.
