the 
Federation lost their entire fleet to one borg	cube...

Would the Borg even be any fun to play against? Big cube comes onto 
board, 
kills all other ships within range, and then those outside of range. 
Doesn't 
sound like a lot of fun to me.

Now granted I haven't seen  *every* ST episode in which they appeared,
but in 
pretty much every one I've  seen it wasn't ships that took out the Borg,
but 
characters doing something on  a much smaller scale than FT does.

Yes, exactly, But I am not making them powerful that ships cant take
them  
out. A "Cube" I am estimating right now to be roughly a 2000NPV ship. So
its  
pretty much its own fleet, and rarely rarely used. The other classes
however are 
 much smaller and weaker and able to handle. In basic, I am buildig a
"Cube" 
just  for looks more then anything. I am also desiging based off the PC
game, 
Star  Trek Armada and Armada II. In these games, even "Cubes" and
"Fussion  
Cubes" are fairly easy wiped out given what they are.
