“The borg ships are ALOT more advanced than what the Federation has”. The only thing any Empire soldier ever hit was Alderaan, literally the size of a planet, and they needed the Death Star to do it.
If stormtroopers needed to go to a planet’s surface (to track droids or terrorize Ewoks :D), they would descend in a shuttle. So why would they go to the trouble of appearing “behind” the Death Star even if they could? While engaging the Death Star as a ship, the Borg send squads which begin to assimilate the crew and tech. The question then becomes is it likely the Borg would be able to board? You also seem to be assuming that the Borg would know enough about the Death Star to even consider sneaking up on it. During the epic battle, the once-perfect sphere takes heavy damage, giving it an "Unfinished" look.
More than that, the Death Star is far larger than anything the Federation has ever built. In the U.S.A., Why Do People (Need to?) The Avengers. If the weapons can destroy a city in one episode but only scratch an enemy ship in another episode because the individual stories required such, I can live with it. The Borg gave us Hugh, the huggable cyborg, who had feelings and emotions after snuggling with the Enterprise. Rolling is more fun, therefore, advantage Empire. In fact, an energy estimate derived from Alderaan’s rate of expansion leads to an estimate in the 1E22 megaton range (yes, that’s at least 100 trillion times the K-T extinction asteroid impact, or as much energy as our Sun has generated since the time of Moses).”. Exactly the kind of ship the Death Star’s defenses were designed to counter. @Abraxas(24): Good thing you didn’t have a whole lot to add.
The borg cube is supposedly 3km per side, while the first death star was 180km in diameter, and the second was 900 km in diameter. But if one’s going to have a semi-serious discussion on the theoretical capabilities and weaknesses of these vessels if they were actually built, then I gotta inject some reality.
Obviously, the destruction of Alderaan exceeded this quantity by many orders of magnitude.
And then, they gain a super-bad-ass-planet-busting Borg sphere to replace that wimpy sphere they had before.
The Cymeks fron “Dune: Butlerian Jihad” would kick both their asses. Yes, the main gun could, in theory, destroy the cube. Bye Bye Death Star.
But that leads to an even more interesting question as in what happens when an army of Borg drones encounter evil, pre-backstory Darth Vader?
Clones, maybe, but still human.
The Justice League. After all, beneath their uniforms and helmets, the Stormtroppers are still human. The Death Star’s super laser is designed to destroy planets, and as demonstrated in RotJ it can target much smaller objects (anyone remember the Rebel cruiser). The Death Star suffered minor local damage when damaged X-Wings simply crashed into it. I don’t care how nice her assimilation is. Introduce anything to even slightly disrupt the Borg’s hive mind and they become virtually useless. A Borg cube is a capital ship. The Empire's Death Star is directed by a black-clad half-human half-machine man. Unless they still haven’t learned how to aim after assimilation. 9 years ago.
Why do you think the Borg order people to “lower your shields and surrender your ships”?
Post was not sent - check your email addresses! Isn’t this what makes the Cube a better design? I gave it to the Borg cube, because Death Stars are fragile. The sheer amount of energy needed to even attempt such a thing is, quite literally, astronomical. That’s all you need to know. So if your combat doctrine revolves around heading straight at the enemy with a punishing head-on assault, it’s good.
Plenty of Delta Quadrant species have been holding off the Borg for years (perhaps centuries). It makes things harder to hit against the front face, and against glancing attacks from that direction is actually much better than the sphere.
You get rid of one cube, there’s a dozen more right there.
The bridge, recognizing the threat, immediately begin firing on the Cube, which does not have the defenses to withstand the attack. My brother first pointed it out to me: Federation ships that don’t have enough power will divert life support into whatever system they need, but will never turn off the artificial gravity. P.P.P.S.
