Today we want to take a deeper look into the Borg's new game mechanics. As known from the shows the Borg don't invest much in research. Instead a Borg player can chose from a list of Collective Features to empower his or her vessels. Unlike normal research the Collective Features do not cost resources, but will consume credits. Therefore you can only chose a few of them and not all at the same time. Collective Features apply to more then one vessel, many of them are even activated on all Borg vessels once acquired. The effectiveness of a Collective Feature will usually scale with the chassis size.
But now to the complete list of the Collective Features included in Fleet Operations v3!




Devastating Attack
Uses 2 Credits
Fires a medium range torpedo at a hostile target. The torpedo will kill the opponents shielding for swift elimination. The duration increases with chassis size. May only be used once every minute



Sensor Relay
Uses 2 Credits
Places a permanent Sensor Relay nearby this Borg vessel. The Sensor Relay will detect all cloaked vessels nearby



Nanites
Uses 2 Credits
Creates a field of Borg nanites in space. The nanites will cause constant damage to all hostiles within the area. There is also a chance that a hostile unit might be infected with the nanites, causing this players GUI to be disturbed. Special Energy cost decrease with chassis size. Lasts 25 seconds



Partial Adaption
Uses 4 Credits
Increases the damage of all Borg units by 10 percent



Uni Complex
Uses 4 Credits
Allows stations to use an Holding Beam



Slizer
Uses 4 Credits
Fires a high energy cuting beam that will slize the enemies hull apart. Deals double damage to small sized targets. Total damage dealt increases with chassis size



Perfect Logistics
Uses 6 Credits
Allows to install one random module for Supply costs only. May only be used if no other modules are yet installed



Data Mining
Uses 6 Credits
Combine the minds of the collective to double the sensor range of all Borg vessels



Boarding
Uses 8 Credits
Transport Borg drones through the enemies shields. The boarding party size increases with chassis size



Transwarp Drive
Uses 8 Credits
Engage the Transwarp coils of this unit to maximum, allowing it to instantly travel to the target location. Maximum distance decreases with chassis size

Fucking great job
Now just release the damn thing

wow good work

just a tip, if you want this mod released any quicker dont moan about a single thing or they will add another bloody task... save it for after ti comes out for a patch or something...

wow a Transwarp Drive cool
realy great job 

Sweet  [sits waiting for more news]

Keep in mind because of the small size of those icons, they need to be readily identifiable for quick clicking/etc... perhaps that explains why they are ornate... I don't know really 

Really quite awesome! ... although I am wondering why it is spelled "slizer" beam and not slicer 

Oooh...that's an interesting idea for assimilation....assimilate a vessel, and somehow gain their crew on your own... don't know how you'd impliment it, tho...
