Re: BoBW nit?
Did we see the entire battle? Or the entire debris field after?

Re: BoBW nit?
I think we saw most of the debris field.
What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Re: BoBW nit?
We saw a lot of debris but I don't think we saw nearly enough to account for 39 federation ships, not unless the Borg were in the habit of vaporizing things.
Re: BoBW nit?
Why wouldn't they, they have no reason to keep them, they weren't assimilating them, so they may have just vaporized half the ships.Tyyr wrote:We saw a lot of debris but I don't think we saw nearly enough to account for 39 federation ships, not unless the Borg were in the habit of vaporizing things.

Re: BoBW nit?
Except that requires a lot more energy than just destroying them. Why use all that excess energy to vaporize the target when you can just destroy them conventionally?

Re: BoBW nit?
good point, and considering the Borg's almost desperate need to use less energy than they make...
In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.
Re: BoBW nit?
Yeah, but we never even saw a Klingon ship fragment. If they DID show up, I can't imagine they survived.

Re: BoBW nit?
Maybe they jumped in before or after the Federation fleet, leading to their battle (and thus their debris field) being in a different part of the system.

Re: BoBW nit?
I had always thought that a Klingon engagement with the cube, if any, took place at a different location. It beggars rationality to think that the Borg left wreckage from UFP ships, but not from Klingon ships that were present.

Re: BoBW nit?
they probably jumped in before, the Enterprise didn't say anything about another delay after the fleet at W359 was destroyed.

Re: BoBW nit?
Or they didn't leave any wreckage. If the Klingons made a mass suicide ramming run, perhaps they were completely vaporized?

Re: BoBW nit?
could be, sounds like something the Klingon's would do.

Re: BoBW nit?
If the Klingons all rammed the Borg ship, I doubt the Borg would bother vaporizing the inert wreckage.

Re: BoBW nit?
well, if they got up to sufficient enough speed, the hulk of their ships might still be in the Borg cube,and the debris that flaked off wouldn't be big enough to identify as Federation/Klingon from space.

When we saw the Cube latter it looked in fairly good shape...
