Hi out there, One of the key features that differ between the PR and the final 3.0 release are the Borg. They are currently under heavy development and new vessels, abilities and weapons are tuned for the collective every day. So we decided to give you a small view into the current development and show you how the Borg are progressing. A quite famous Armada1 Borg design was the Assimilator. A vessel dedicated to the sole purpose of assimilating hostile lifeforms into the collective. The Assimilator will of course have a great comeback in v3, too. The model has just been finished and here is a first rendering. A ingame screenshot will follow as soon as the model was optimized for ingame-display, but the appearance and quality won't change by this.  The Fleet Operations Assimilator will behave similar to the Armada1 Assimilator. But as a support vessel the Assimilator will feature two other abilities besides the Auto-Assimilation-Beam. More about them will be released in future news posts. Ready your nanites, power your alcoves and prepare for assimilation in Fleet Operations v3.0  |

The new assimilator looks great! Does the auto assimilation beam indicate that crew will be back as resource in V3? |

I love the new look. I always thought the A1 assimilator design looked a bit silly myself, but with that model and texture i love it! Can't wait to see the new Borg, it looks like they're gonna be brill! Join the Collective...we have cookies...  |

Put that work into a new Descent, and no one will be complaining again!
