Then let the Romulans die with a complete lack of honour and just start extorting people so we can build up a strong enough navy to take on at least one of those damn cubes!

Our navy is approximatelly strong enough to take one of the Cubes.

But I'm worried about the other two. Where will they go after Cardassians, and if we will manage to destroy them before they bring 'vendetta' victory to one of our enemies.

EDIT: Found some appropriate music for the looming slaughter/disaster. :P

The discovery of third Borg Cube have sent population into panic mode. Not that we're surprised. (Good thing there's no morale minus for appearance of Borg in the game!)
Yridian, Takaran, Shelia and Sol shipyards are going to be mass-producing ships. Mainly Miranda-class destroyers and Galaxy-class cruisers.

Diplomatic cluster-fuck happens, but honestly AI is too dumb to take on a Borg Cube. We bought USS Trieste, Galaxy-class cruiser at Shelia, whilst Takara and Yridia systems finished USS Majestic B and USS Miranda B, respectively.

...God help us.

Fourth.

It's Fourth Borg Cube.


I don't want to LP this anymooore ;~;

I'm getting really freaked right now.  Well, I say what I always say in your LPs.  Fight, and die, with honor.  Really, cowering at this point won't save anyone.

Indeed, the best course of action may very well be to kill off the Cardassians and Romulans before the Borg can kill us or any combo of civilizations that leads to our losing.

We can't beat the Borg.  But we don't have to.  We just need civilization deaths to line up our way.  Then, the almighty Borg Cubes will be crushed by the Victory Screen of Doom!

(Or, if you want to roleplay, then after the Cardassians and Romulans perish, Q steps in, snaps his fingers, and announces the Borg are no more.)

We can't reach half of Romulan planets and none of Cardassian planets.

I'm supposed to kill them how? :P

Borg attacked Federation (second cube warped to Kurill system). Admiral Cain and his combined fleet has been ordered to wait at the border for Delta Vega Fleet to arrive. 9 ships can make a difference between plausible and pyrrhic victory.
Shipyard news: USS Brunswick B, Miranda, Yridia shipyards.
We also got reports that both Cardassian and Romulan fleets are gone after they tried to destroy the Borg themselves.
How ironic. We tried to destroy Romulans and Cardassians on our own but now we have to fight those that did it for us.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I was worried for a while, but it must be Cardassian offers to Klingons, not the other way. Cardassians lost Nimbus system.
USS Everett B and USS Covington B; both Mirandas, finished at Takara and Yridia.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Honestly, Klingons made me giggle with that one.
USS Exeter A, Ambassador cruiser, left Utopia Planitia yards and wil lsoon join the haste-made fleet from Yridia.
Delta Vega Fleet is ready to warp in synch with Admiral Cain's Fleet.

We're doing this, guys.

We're makin' this happen.

GONNA BATTLE THEM ALL! And may whatever gods you believe in protect your lives :v

Bridge of USS Renown, Galaxy-class cruiser.

Officer 1: Everett A destroyed! Biko dissappeared from our radar!
Officer 2: Four other Miranda-class destroyers decimated, sir!
Officer 3: I'm reading power fluctuations inside the Borg Cu-

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Officer 1: Sir... the Borg Cube is gone!
Admiral Jarod Cain: I hope no one will be disgusted if I will say: Fuck yeah! Let's move! Help the wounded! Prepare shuttlebays and transporters! We have to evacuate as much women and children from Ariannus as possible!
===

We lost 15 ships; 4 Oberths (Biko (our first military ship, rest in pieces I guess! :C), Andromede, Stingray, Cortes), 11 Mirandas (Everett, Newport, Somali, Kirkland, Lachlan, Condamine, Sakai, Venice, Berkeley, Alameda, Stratford // All of them 'A' names).

Don't worry, guys - all of you Captains got through this alive :)

And reinforcements are already getting big! Yridia fleet is en route, and our shipyards at Takara, Shelia and Yridia just finished: USS Coronado B (Miranda), and pair of Galaxy-class cruisers: USS Bolzano and USS Tyokai!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

As you can see, the victory lifted the spirits of our citizenry. Everyone is contributing to the construction of new warships, so we get new ones in mere 1 to 4 turns, depending on system. Yridia is, of course, on 1st place in terms of production.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Poor Cardassians. They are mercilessly slaughtered by millions. Babel system just got 'purged' and the capital of the Union - Cardassia - is in process of being annihilated.

So much for Cardassian Union.

PS: If you worry about promotions - do not. All who took part in the battle will be promoted one ship-class up. I have to sort through remaining ships and redo fleets again, so this is chaotic. As far as I see Captain's roster: Nix (NRDL) and Jack Roberts (Iituem) get an Ambassador, and Euchre Jack Jr. (Euchre Jack :P) gets a Galaxy-class cruiser.

BTW, Hyo, pick your damn ship already. Can be Ambassador-class, if you want :P

Just pick a name from below list, guys:

I wouldn't mind taking command of the Fury, or if I need to start from the bottom, the Helmsdale.

1 out of 4, and the Borg are chewing apart our racial enemies!

Well, I wanted the USS Blake before, so why not now?

Roleplay mode on: After lusting after the USS Blake for quite some time, as the Galaxy-class ship assigned to his taskforce yet being too "elite" for such a young officer, Euchre Jack Jr. was beaming with pride when he beamed aboard his new flagship, the USS Blake.
Roleplay mode off.

Hey, am I am admiral now?  Or am I like Captain Picard, commander of the biggest, baddest ship in Starfleet but still only a captain?

Oh, and congratulations!  I sort of thought you might have given up when you saw the four Borg cubes.  Well done, we might just win this!
