back to the matter at hand
The Cube seems to be built on the idea of a strong Borg Sector, with Borg planets, with an entire Borg infrastructure. The single Cube concept only works if the Borg have the time and resources to construct such a ship, which FO can't be. Even building a Protoss Carrier is a minor investment compared to what a canon Cube would cost.
The Tavara is not a Capital ship like the Cube, it is a Super-Weapon. It is not serially produced and thus does not need to be economical. I can see the Tavara being purpose built especially to take out/over Cubes. The Tavara is powered by the Omega Particle which is of great interest to the collective, so it makes sense to me that they would want to turn it loose on the Borg first.

Built purpusly or not, it still shouldnt be stronger than a cube. And yes I think they should at least try to make the cube as canon as possible, they have credits to make sure u can only build 1 and it SHOULD be strong as ****. |

anyway bottom line... the cube should be stronger than the tavara, plain and simple.

well quite frankly remove borg shield, give Then some what high resource cost like:
- 5000 dill
- 5000 metal
- 2 min build time (so the player has time to prepare for cube arrival)
and make them super ship like tfc, just not a tfc. Then take taticule cupe and make 2X stronger and 2X build time, 4 min. How many sovies Exels II can you have in 2 min? Then i would make it were they would eat up any other ship in just a second and need their own speciel yard. So ever second they destroy a ship, and in 2 min they wipe out 50 + ship and few station :omg:.
O and for you blance freak i would do what did in my mod just fricken add picard as starting unit and make him do 4X damage to cube then to normal ships. *Ha ha ha dare i say first contact mod* i also have a added a borg fail safe device life boat what ever. When you hit life boat button the cube turn in to sphere and u loose the cube *for blance to make sure you use it has a life boat* . The sphere has the same amount of crew as my mod cube has 10,000 crew, so the sphere has 10,000 crew, and it only purpose is to be decommissioned. The reason any one would add that mod, and why the borg would build that vessel, is to save the crew from the borg vessel, thust i have made were only purpose the life boat severces is to be decommissioned giving you the full crew and hafe the resource back from your trashed cube. so you can keep building the cube with out crew worries.
Sorry about talking about my mod just saying how i solved this problem...
The Tavara is powered by the Omega Particle
what does this hafe to do with the tarva weapon damage. Unless it shoot the omgega partical missle it might as well being shooting tribble. Borg cube are not fear through out the galaxy for nothing. Q said it best "you jugde your selfes by your pitifull aversaries the kling the romulan you not read for what out their"
Romulan are pitfull
fed are to
what we have is picard and sheer numbers
and few futuer weapon to boot

i know this is off topic but...
that mod sounds very cool man, are you going to release it on armada2files?
also i think it's been well thought out it means that you can have a super cube, and still have a playable game, ie, with the crew , you dnt lose them all when the cube gets shot to bits!

U can simply balance the cube with credits, that makes sure a player can only build 1 or 2  BTW FO doesnt use metal as a resource  |
