Borg Changes for 3.07

for 3.0.7 i have reverted a part of the cost formulas. earlier vessels will be cheaper again, but connections will accumulate slower, in order to keep the Borg balanced. First test games worked out well

Slower? Hm...lets wait and see...  

I dont have a problem with the resource costs, but with the regeneration rate of collective connections which is limiting the speed i can build new ships. But im sure you guys know what you do, so ill just sit back and wait for 3.0.7...

never look a gift horse in the mouth. 

Im sure it will turn out fine. 

regen rate to limit ships is fine. that will add an element of management and decision making - shoul i wait for a cube or get a few smaller ones out...
Exactly along the lines of what Dirc and I had suggested for dominion K-cel white as an additional resource.

I love this new Collective connections for the Borg.

I found that if you dont build the (was it conduction matrix) you end up with enough resources to build a multi-targeting sphere in about 5 minutes (2 regens, 2 beam modules) which is highly effective at tearing through destroyer spam (unless its dominion and they just ram you )
