*ominous green glow*

Because X-Wings can't shoot backwards, and they suck at being proper wingman. Borg vessels have no sides. Also, one ship goes down by attacks > the rest becomes impervious to those attacks.

Further, the Borg carry with them all the knowledge, and with that tactics, of the trillions of creatures they have absorbed. I'm quite sure that it beats the improvising of a few people who wouldn't become good at any form of warfare until AFTER the war we're talking about... As for the Wookie and Ben: the first one didn't actually ever do something useful. The war on his homeplanet was more then lost, they got completely decimated until the Clone Troopers arrived to help out. As for Ben, he was a *****. He cried during combat and let himself die without even putting up a fight.

 

Why would the borg ever want to destroy the death star? It'd be like their holy grail.

Also, borg cubes are big enough to be targeted with the superlazor. Say BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH and a ship is gone.

 

They'll find a way to deflect it eventually.

 

Why would you deflect it when you can assimilate it?

 

To learn from it first?

 

Didn't the borg get retconned to only be able to understand stuff through assimilation?

 

I... what?

 

The Borg prefer to assume control of entities that aren't damaged. They prefer a surrender, though only because they then get a more powerful culture/vessel.

They have the ability to smash through most fleets, but that's less loots for them.

 

Emphasised.

 

it's a standard greeting.



Why don't the borg have cloaking? How can they not get cloaking in a thousand assimilated species (and no, they don't assimilate primitives)

 

Because they find it unworthy of using? Anyways, writers admitted that they made the Borg to strong. Like the Stargate writers admitted that the Replicators were to strong. Once a writer admits that, it's proof that those entities > everything else. Why? Because I say so.

Which brings up the real question:

Who would win in an all out fight, where all tech is fully used: Replicators, or Borg?

Note how a standard Replicator vessel is about 20 times the size of an Asgard mothership, which were pretty fecking huge. (like a small city)

 

The answer is simple: neither, they'd become a merger.

 

Replicating Borg....

megacoolawesomesauce

 

There is the issue of who started the merge though. Borg replicators would be very different from replicators with borg tech (Borg add tech to their ships, while reps construct tech with their own body)

 

I don't really see how the Borg could assimilate replicators, though. I mean, they're made up of nano particles. Their tubes would probably be absorbed by the replicators right away. So my guess is that the Replicators would absorb Borg tech. However, that way there wouldn't be much left of the original Borg, since human for Replicators are FAR more efficient than cyborgs.

 

We were talking about the original milky-way replicators right?

 

Yes, I think we are.

 

we are talking about the milkyway replicators in their original block form right?

the ones that are easily injectable?

 

The ones in the milkyway could go liquid and reform themselves. They're made up from nano particles. The pegasus ones were made from other materials, which could be destroyed.

 

the only ones who could go liquid were made from special metals, not nano particles.
