BORG Collective

The Borg are not from the Origial Series or Motion Picture eras, but they sure make a good bad guy for convention games with a single cube being a great common enemy for all the players to battle.

Someday I may create an SSD for an armored Tactical Cube....

The Borg Cube rules are based on the Sa'Vasku from Fleet Book 2 and use power allocation to allow the cube to be very adaptive to its combat situation.  There are a number of special rules and rules variations to make them more 'Borg-like' and they are in the special rules document linked below.

Due to this complexity of the massive Borg Cube, I had 2 and then 4 players run the cube making the power allocation decisions and then required them to all talk in unison at the start of each turn to taunt the allies that "resistance is futile".
