Borg
in 2016 we hope to make Borg playable as a major/empire race. If so, indeed there are some differences to the other empires in game mechanics:
- Borg doesn't have colony ships. To own a sector just build a station in that sector (instead of colonizing).
- if a colony is inhabitant you can assimilate it by assaulting the system. Don't forget to use transport ships, transporting borg drones for assimilation. Without that you will just bombard the colony.
Than minor race "Borg" is thrown out of the game.
|
"We are the Borg. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile." The Borg are/were a pseudo-species of cybernetic beings, or cyborgs, from the Delta Quadrant. No single individual truly existed within the Borg Collective (with the possible sole exception of the Borg Queen), as all Borg were linked into a hive mind. Their ultimate goal was the attainment of 'perfection' through the forcible assimilation of diverse sentient species, technologies, and knowledge. As a result, the Borg were among the most powerful and feared entities in the galaxy, without really being a true species at all. The precise origins of the Borg are unclear. As of 1484 AD, they were reported as controlling only a handful of systems in the Delta Quadrant, but by 2373, they had assimilated thousands of worlds. In addition to this stronghold in the Delta Quadrant, the Borg also dispatched vessels throughout the galaxy via transwarp conduits. The Borg Collective population is at the very least made up several trillion humanoid and non-humanoid species referred to as drones. Through the use of their cybernetic implants, the Borg interacted by sharing one another's thoughts in a hive mind. Upon assimilation, these trillions of "voices" would overwhelm the drone, stifling individual thought and resistance to the Collective's will. To some drones these voices could eventually become a source of comfort, and their absence a source of pain. Borg philosophy was governed by a primary directive to add the biological and technological distinctiveness of other species to that of the Borg. In this manner the Collective sought to achieve its definition of perfection; all other pursuits were deemed irrelevant. Accordingly, Borg drones did not engage in any activities except their duties and regeneration. Individual drones have demonstrated puzzlement at other species' unwillingness to be assimilated, the drones believing in the superiority of their way of life.

Playing Borg
Playing Borg is hard balanced between being a hostile race and having some disadvantages.
- Borg don't have colony ships so build transport ships and assault foreign systems. Don't forget to declare war before to that race using Embassy screen.
- Borg ships are quite strong in ship-to-ship-combat (advantage)
- Moon Habitation (or in real building Complexes) is a strong advantage getting a lot of borg drones. Hopefully your starting system "borg nebula" has one or more moons as well.
Starting Tech Level EARLY
- for ship building you need to build some energy reactors first and save energy as far as you can (turn off Shield Generator)
