I don’t know that Zorg. I only know this Zorg.

No matter how many times I see that movie, I’m always surprised like a toddler playing peek-a-boo when I realize (yet again) that is Gary Oldman. He is as unrecognizable in that role as he is fantastic.

Borg assimilate Zerg.

BORG RUSH

They would also assimilate the Protoss as well… (and humans, not that it matters as Borg are already far beyond nukes)

We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own… resistance is futile…

The zerg would be difficult to assimilate though, they have such a short incubation period, and we know the Borg implants are added after birth. logistically it’s complicated to manage.

I don’t think they’d be worthy for assimilation as a whole either, as the underlings couldn’t’t meaningfully contribute to the Borg hive mind.

If they assimilated the hive mind then the swarm would be under their control

The Borg couldn’t even assimilate 8472 aka the Undine. The Zerg make those bastards look like baby’s first eugenics war. And thats not even factoring in Kerrigan’s BS writing.

Borg all the way, all the time. The Zerg would never rate a two part season ending cliffhanger.

What about two entire expansion packs? Borg never got that!

Assimilating a single Zerg doesn’t change the fact there is 10,000,000,000 more of them rushing in.

Okay, but The Borg have comparable numbers. Humans are Species 5618 when the Borg make first contact. That’s 5617 species they have assimilated (or, at least, tried to assimilate) beforehand.

In Voyager, the whole Delta Quadrant is teaming with Borg. Functionally on par with the Zerg.

Identified for sure, not necessarily assimilated. Can’t remember who the moment but there are people who the borg ignored because they were uninteresting. But there are species the Borg have identified and not assimilated as well

Borg can’t match the lifecycle speed of Zerg though. Yes, they can create new infants, implant them, and accelerate their growth in maturation chambers to produce new adult humanoid drones, but the process took 17 cycles (days). Zerg on the other hand produce new drones in a matter of seconds and new hatcheries in a minute or two. Within a single day they could multiply across an entire planet or overwhelm a cube.

Create post

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally “othering” of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That’s okay! Just don’t let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it’s free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not ‘inspire jamaharon’

~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community’s expectations.

Fun will now commence.
