Very neat, very terrifying! Co-Op or Die!
And if the Borg assimilate the whole map, does that mean everyone has lost....or won? Unity!

Very interesting stuff.
If I read that correctly...every Borg cube gets to activate every time the Borg "turn" comes around. So I don't see how the players can NOT deal with them early, to keep them in check. Unless you have a setup where it's difficult to get into your portion of the star map.
I could have gone either way between having the Borg as a playable faction and having them as the "AI" in the game. Will be cool to see how this develops on the tabletop.
They still don't have the Cardassian and Ferengi expansions out yet, right?

Amazon still shows May 31st release date. No Update on GF9's site

Cool! I liked it the first (and only time so far) that I played at Genghis earlier this year. More factions would be fun. Maybe some extra systems too, have a bigger game, especially if you want more that three players at a time.

I saw some previews for this in the trade catalog at the FLGS the last time I stopped by there, and this looks like an excellent expansion for the game! What I like is that since it is a co-op expansion, I think it will really appeal to players like my wife who enjoy Star Trek and the mechanics of the boardgame, but not necessarily the PvP competition aspects of it.
