Nebula Strategies for Borg

What are some good nebulae to enter if you need to pull say a sphere or a cube out of a battle?  I already know that the regen nebulae don't work.

the borg are best in fluid and mutara nebulae.

if u enter either your enemy will lose shields if they try follow. meaning u can eat them quicker.

if u enter a mutara everybody loses sensors, making chasing a lot more difficult. mutara nebulae make escape easy. running through mutara nebulae is a good strat for any race to escape.

borg ships with strong hulls and good regen rates (assim or bigger) can run through the harmful nebulae (tetryon and nucleon) while enemies wont do so.

too many fluid nebulae unbalances a match. try the map swings and roundabouts, and see how the borg are strong.

Thanks.  How much will a damaging nebula effect the outcome of a battle if the enemy follows me in?

depends, weaker ships will lose shields fast and the borg ships will finish them easily.

larger ships will escape.

in any case they probably wont follow u in for anything less than a cube. and sometimes not even for a cube.
