WEAREBORG4102 0 Posted February 14, 2004 Do you think that the Borg will ever assimilate the Federation and it's species????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vold 0 Posted March 14, 2004 Honestly, no we already know the Federation will live on till the 29th century & in the 31st century they change their name. Hmm... maybe they did lol, that's why they change their name around the 30th century, because they were assimilated got freed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ussacclaim 0 Posted April 9, 2004 No, the Federation won't be assimilated by the Borg. Star Trek is supposed to show the growth of humanity in a positive way. If in the future humans would be assimilated everyone would hate it. The whole series would be looking for other cultures to assimilate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
borgdrone222 0 Posted April 11, 2004 No, the Federation will get more and more versed with the Borg shield drainer and then be able to deactivate it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vold 0 Posted April 12, 2004 Somewhere between the 25th - 29th Century. The Federation & the Borg will be working together But not by joining each side as a member of the Federation or the Collective. But as distant, neighbours & allies. :lol: The Borg would have learn more then they need to know about Individualism, that they decide to alter their method of perfection seeking, which is far better then full assimilation.

Alexander32 0 Posted April 16, 2004 Well, if you recall, on a voyager episode called One i think.The Borg in the future actaully take a sample of a specimen and clone them! So I think from then on the Borg only attack to defend themselves? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vold 0 Posted April 16, 2004 In the current era, The Borg assimilate entire Civilizations, because they need "recruits" & also they want to share their Perfection with other races. The reason they don't clone, is because current Borg Maturation Chambers are still slow in progress. In the future, somewhere before the 29th Century, the Borg have developed a highly efficient Maturation Methods. As shown in "Drone" This could lead to a possibility of new methods of Assimilation, because they don't need to assimilate the entire Civilizations anymore, they can clone their own ranks. So they can find a more peaceful way to find Perfection. By leaving the encountered races alone, those races will continue to grow & evolve. Every once a while, the Borg can just come & take what ever "offereings" that species have to offer. This way the Borg can have what they want [Perfection] & the Species have what they want [Freedom] too. In terms of biology of that species, all they need is some volunteers to be assimilated so they can understand their biology. Better still, assimilation can be a new method of "execution" of prisoners. :) or "Prison life" :( Oh, in case u didn't noticed earlier, that episode u are refering to is "Drone" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alpha Centauri 0 Posted August 19, 2004 I think that the Borg would disagree on that. You see, the Borg don't just want to steal technologies from other races, understand their biology, find their weaknesses or claim their experiences. No doubt they do those too but, as the Borg themselves say, their main reason for assimilating civilizations is to offer them << perfection >>, a better quality of life, even if it means suffering casualties. The big problem with the Borg is that they are not viewing their assimilation attacks as a campaign of conquest for own gain but as a crusade to << help >> all other << misguided >> races. This will lead them to attack at all times no matter what. The only way the Federation could deal with it, is through its advancement. I mean, the Borg have been around for 12000 years at least and their technology is not THAT far superior of the Federation whose members have been in space for less than a thousand years ( excluding the medusans that despite being around for so long, advanced very little ). The Borg, as powerful as they seem, they do not advance as rapidly as the Federation, the Romulans or the Klingons ( just like the dominion that also was around for thousands of years but was not far more advanced ). In my opinion should the Federation last 2000 years or so, the Borg would be defeated just like China was conquered by the colonial powers. ( once the greatest empire, now outdated and crushed ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Validus 0 Posted July 14, 2005 As i say never say never! But the Federation does have alot of power! 295987[/snapback] I dunno....one Borg cube wiped out dozens of ships at Wolf 359 with little effort. I've no doubt that a few dozen Borg cubes could crush the Federation and the Klingon Empire in under a week no problem. The only way they'd avoid defeat is if they had someone very powerful helping them, perhaps the Fesarius from "The Corbomite Manuver" (TOS) or the Tholians with their web technology could bind the Borg....???

Esther 0 Posted July 15, 2005 The Borg do not seek to better all life forms, they seek perfection in themselves. Races which have nothing to further them to perfection are ignored. If the Borg were trying to bring perfection to all, wouldn't they have assimilated the Kazon? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
