Who are the best allies to have?

I just wanted to see what type of input you guys have about this subject.  For me, it's the Rommies(due to cloking ability).

Are you talking about AI or Human?

Yes, and which race are you when you are talking about allies?

My bad....... I was talking about playing the AI.  Now as for who you are playing with, that is up to you.

Feds: Rommies
Dom: Klings
Romulans: Borg
Borg: Well, no one, really
Klings: Feds

Those are my match-ups.

Very interesting....I like that combo.

against the AI, I like being fed paired up with another person playing borg. 

A cube, even a scoutcube, is almost unstoppable with 3 repair ships following it around.

If teamed with an AI, I like either romulans, (for cloaking) or dominion (for the miranda II)

I normally play fed, so I dont really know about the other races.

You know, I've never actually played with an AI as a team before. 
Guess that excludes me from this thread

Borg: Well, no one, really

I humbly disagree.  Try taking out a cube with some Fed repair ships on it!!   I love it when my brother and I do 2v2 do Borg/Fed vs. Anyone.  Also attacking Fed. A.I. sends repair ships....which is also lovely! :-p

personally, for feds, id have to say dominion, mirranda 2 kicks ass, or rommies for cloaking defiants, and nice spy

dominion, romies, nice to have some spy and cloak at your side

borg, anything

rommies, hm, not to much expirience with rommies, but i think fed would be good, spy on the base, and then warp in

kligons.............. hmm, they might go nice with feds, just for speed

Personally i like whatever ally gives you the ship thats limited to 20. For the Romulans thats the Klingons, for the Klingons its the Federation, for the Federation its the Dominion, for the Dominion its anyone, and the Borg get no special ships so anyone will do although the Federation sounds good for the repair ships.
