I would like to see a viable sphere module combination that give the Borg an early/early-mid game support ship.

I think one (potentially) viable idea as a support special would be "Temporal Displacement" (lore based on First Contact) that would teleport all allied ships a screen length away (destination of choice), but are randomly damaged (but not destroyed) and are out of play for 15 seconds.


edit: Ug! I suggested a new ship! Crap! Totally goes against my "not another ship please" mantra.

Hahha well I'm glad that our talk on Tunngle at least inspired you to have some creative ideas .  Even if we don't agree, creativity wins always!

  I would also like to see this kind of idea.  I know that Borg rely in the fewer ship types the better, but a Sphere combo or an Assim combo even that could support an early force of scubes/probes would be great.


I think that's the kind of thing you were suggesting, right Yandon?

@Boggz - basically yes.


Scrap the above special (though it's kinda cool, it's kinda silly) and add the following two "directives" as module options for the Sphere. They are basically mini Bring Order to Chaoses.

Directive: Regenerate - Targets an allied borg ship and increases its regenerative ability.
Module can be selected up to 3 times, becoming more effective with each module installed.


Directive: Attack - Targets an allied borg ship and increases its rate of fire.
Module can be selected up to 3 times, becoming more effective with each module installed.
