Borg Diamond: More optional abilities?

Well ... the REAL answer is that the Borg were supposed to be a massively threatening enemy for the Federation to face.  Jumping the Shark too early would have resulted in a bunch of people who watched going:  "oh ... there goes the Federation ... hmm .... well I guess that made sense."


  Voyager (besides making Borg Cubes look like sissies) did a big favor for the rest of Star Trek by returning the Borg to a state where it's conceivable that they CAN'T send a giant force to Earth and end the show.  Now with most of their assets gone, they are in a prime position (story-wise) to be an underdog that becomes a threat again.

i will think about putting another module in for the diamond. but as the evaluation phase for those changes is realtively long, it wont be in the next patch (we already finished evaluation and are now testing it, no further delays allowed )
