Ranked Invasion Cube 006 - Encounter #008

Information:
Encounter with eleven subjects who referred to themselves as Storm Kings.

Analysis:
All subjects were of a previously unknown race. Humanoid, but faster and with pointier ears.

Threat Assessment:
Minimal. No drones were harmed during the operation. The opposition had limited armour and generally avoided conflict. One of them was eventually cornered and was prepared for assimilation by the Borg.

Outcome:
Unfavourable for the Hive. However the assimilated subject, while unaware of any skills, was of a previously unknown biology and will be added to the Hive.

All subjects were of a previously known race, these small creatures have two big as they call them trolls and some dirty goblins who have some kind of secret weapons.

Minimal. No drones were harmed during the operation. The Goblins have a low armour and generally avoided conflict, But the two big trolls and the secret weapons were a big problem for the drones.

Outcome:
Mission was a failure has none of the goblin creatures were assimilated by the borg.

Ranked Invasion Cube 001 - Encounter 21

An Ion storm heavily damaged the Cube's structure and deactivated most of our Drones' defense systems. This weakness was utilized by a past-flying pirate ship crewed by subjects belonging to the species Chaos. They suffered from several mutations, which they used to inflict serious damage on our Drones. Many had to be shut down, rebooted or even recycled.

Complete data for further analysis can be found here.

After their Glorious Victory (TM) over the Elf vessel, Blackbox Invasion Cube 003 ventures forth in the Blackbox squadrant. Suddenly a bony face shows up over the intercom. 'Khemri pass-play is superior. SUBMIT to OUR WILL'. The Drones have none of it and engage this dusty opponent. Drone Seven of Sixteen Shows it's more than a Scout and manages to take down one of the hulking monstrosities in a great show of Borg Supremacy (TM).

When the dust settles (not for Khemri, they're doomed to be dusty till the end of their days) The Box Invasion Cube emerges victorious and defies these Bone-Devils. None were assimilated, but scans showed they were incompatible anyway.

I haven't read the thread but this looks... very interesting. Maybe I should make a cube and try this thing (though I've never played Chaos Pact). I've got some fresh-ish teams available in both ranked and Blackbox, too, for challenges... Smile

Ranked Invasion Cube 014 - Encounter #001

Information:
Encounter with eleven subjects who referred to themselves as vampiricantropo.

Analysis:
Subjects were of 2 separate species, one clearly more dominant, both Humanoid, but the dominant ones faster and with pointy teeth.

Threat Assessment:
Minimal. Although the dominant ones showed an ability to confuse drones rendering them powerless to move or react, this is a powerful but fortunately fleeting ability.


Outcome:
Unfavourable for the Hive. However have assimilated tactical strength and will press future advantage home by applying "stall" technique which would have given the hive a favourable outcome.

The complete data file of the encounter is available here
