[. . . ] Defensively, the Borg can adapt their personal shields to the frequency of different types of energy weapons, including Federation phasers. Therefore, it is best to use weapons that automatically remodulate energy frequencies to bypass the Borg defenses. Seven of Nine has been working on such a weapon, but its effectiveness has not yet been proven in combat against the Borg. The Borg's connected mind is both an asset and a weakness for the Collective. Because they share a single mind, an attack against a single Borg instantly alerts any nearby drones. However, the nature of the Borg's collective mind can be used against them. Specialized devices like a Borg Distribution Node are required to help coordinate the activities of localized drone groups within a Borg community. By destroying control devices like the Distribution Node, a local group of Borg drones can be temporarily disconnected from the Collective. SUBJECT: ETHERIANS The Etherians are a highly developed race of beings that utilize bio-mechanical technology to power living ships. Etherian warriors can gather bioelectric energy from their ships and focus it into destructive plasma. Etherians also utilize advanced transporter technology within their ship and are highly mobile in their own environment. Caution must be exercised while exploring an Etherian vessel because of their ability to use spawn transporters to beam into any area. First contact with the Etherians resulted in a hostile conflict. It is possible that the 29 28 Etherians in the Forge diverged from a peaceful race, becoming hostile after being imprisoned. However, all Etherians in this region should be considered dangerous and approached with caution. GAMEPLAY TIPS · Play through the tutorial level (available on the New Game menu). It's a great chance to get hands-on experience and training in the safety of the holodeck before you go out into the field. · Items that can be used or destroyed will often be highlighted with an outline and a text message. Pay attention to these visual cues and your mission objectives to avoid confusion during the mission. · The Borg will attack if they perceive you to be a threat. If you fire at them, all Borg in the surrounding vicinity will activate to assimilate you. Also, the Borg possess a defensive capability that allows them to adapt to a weapon's energy frequency. You will only have a few shots before the Borg adapt, so use them wisely. A Borg will glow green when adapted to a certain weapon blast.
