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.
