Habib's STCCG card of the day #2
Welcome to my second installment of Habib's card of the Day. Today I will take the pleasure
of reviewing my personal favorite
card ...
THE BORG SHIP
Dilemma (Space)
"Gigantic cubic ship of the Borg collective. Possesses powerful weapons and remarkable
regenerative abilities."
Self-controlling ship (WEAPONS=24, SHIELDS=24).
Start here. Attacks everything.
End of turn, moves 1 card toward and off spaceline's long end.
Destroy for bonus. 45
Basically I think this is the best dilemma card in the game. It will almost always destroy or at
least damage your ship, unless
you have Nutational or Metaphasic shields and tons of personnel to power them up. And it
keeps moving for further
destruction.
In combination with Q-Nets you can lock the Borg on an opponent's outpost,
destroying all ships that come in to
play. Then with a single Supernova you can destroy the Borg for 45 points and destroy the
opponent's outpost.
Also you can
wormhole an opponent on to the Borg ship once it's in play, destroying his ship and all
people on board (unless he has an
escape pod). So basically if you have a Borg ship, use it.
