A Silly Mistakee

I was just playing some Fleetops as the Borg, then I noticed something. I think I ordered my Assimilators to attack some Dominon ships, then I heard the collective say in the background "Remodulating shields..." Then it ocured to me, in FO, the Borg don't have shields!

I was wondering if you could fix this. Either take it away and replace it, or give the Borg shields!

They don't use shields of the same type as other races, but the Structural Integrity field (that they do use) it pretty much a shield inside the hull. They use them, just not the 'bubble in space' type that others have.

I'd imagine that the SIF is what they remodulate to better protect against enemy weapons.

Ohhhh.... I see. Thanks for clearing that up.

I'm sure there was something else, but I can't remember it right now.
