The Borg are modeled after the Borg from Star Trek. They are square ships and buildings that use immobilizing laser weapons to subdue intruders to their territory. They also spam quantities of drones to swarm their enemies.
The Borg are not a playable faction.
Blocks
The Borg block palette is simple and boxy. Their blocks show you the lines between all the squares, giving them the ‘borg look’. Even their thrusters are simple rectangles.
Lasers
The Borg have laser turrets of various sizes. They are not exceedingly strong, but the Borg ships will respond as a group to intrusions and the lasers can be deadly in quantity. The Borg also have an Immobilzing Laser that can prevent enemies from running away.
Drones
The Borg Drone Launchers can produce more drones than any other faction. These can be quite deadly as swarms not only because of the damage they do, but also because of the combined immobilizing effect of all their lasers will bring a ship to a complete stop.
Notes
The Borg do not have a factory block and thus cannot reproduce. Their ships and buildings are generated when the game creates the region.
The Borg buildings generate resources and can be farmed by a raiding faction.
Borg blocks use the INLINE Feature, which allows the border line of each block to be visible.
